Having obtained approval from all the required Antitrust Authorities, Tenova has closed the acquisition of Bateman Engineering (which includes Delkor), a leading equipment supplier and engineering house for mining. As a further step, Tenova says it is also expanding “through the integration of the Bateman business related to solvent extraction, electrowinning and chemical technologies.”

Tenova Mining and Minerals product portfolio now includes also hydrometallurgical equipment and solutions for minerals, fertilisers and phosphates. SX, EW and chemical technologies “processes span from the preliminary stages of defining the customer’s needs and conducting research and feasibility studies to plant modification, expansion and new facility construction.”

Tenova Mining & Minerals division also includes Tenova Takraf and Tenova Pyromet. It now becomes a group generating annual revenues in excess of $1.1 billion, employing 2,400 personnel and operating in 19 countries across five continents. Tenova is a global supplier of advanced technologies, products, and engineering services for the iron & steel and mining industries providing innovative, integrated solutions for complete process areas.
