Projects
- How EPCM Scaled Antimony Production by 15ร โ Fast
When market conditions shift fast, success belongs to the teams that can execute even faster. In early 2026, EPCM was brought in to support a timeโcritical antimony production initiative in Bolivia โ a project where speed, technical precision, and integrated execution were nonโnegotiable. The client needed to move from limited monthly output to industrialโscale production immediately, capitalizing on a narrow commercial window. - Innovation in Automated Anode Pressing: A Tailored Lug Press Solution
The client required an upgraded anode preparation process to improve resolve a reliability issue within its hydrometallurgical operation. The specific need was to replace an aging lug press system in immanent failure that had become a downtime risk, high maintenance, and mechanical challenges.
