ZOOMRY
Trona Ore Conveyor Solutions
ZOOMRY provides durable, enclosed conveyor systems for trona ore handling — from underground mining and crushing to surface processing, soda ash production, and rail or port loading. Our equipment withstands the abrasive, hygroscopic nature of trona while controlling dust and protecting product quality throughout the refining chain.
Trona ore handling combines multiple challenges: abrasiveness similar to hard rock mining, hygroscopic properties that cause caking when exposed to moisture, alkaline chemistry that attacks standard materials, and fine dust that requires careful containment. ZOOMRY's long-distance overland conveyors, enclosed pipe systems, corrosion-resistant HDPE rollers, and Bucket Wheel Stacker Reclaimers are engineered specifically for these demands. Whether you operate an underground trona mine, surface soda ash plant, or export terminal, our solutions provide reliable, low-maintenance operation tailored to the unique challenges of the sodium sesquicarbonate industry.
Recommended Equipment for Trona Ore
Each system is designed for the specific challenges of trona: abrasion resistance, moisture protection, alkaline corrosion, and dust containment.
Pipe conveyor System
Fully enclosed pipe conveyors prevent trona dust emissions during transport from underground crushing stations to surface processing facilities. The tubular design protects hygroscopic trona from rain and humidity that trigger caking, while eliminating spillage along the conveying route. Tight curve capability allows routing around existing mine infrastructure without transfer stations that generate additional dust.

Corrosion Resistant HDPE Roller
HDPE conveyor rollers specifically engineered for the alkaline environment of trona handling. Non-corrosive HDPE shells resist chemical attack from sodium sesquicarbonate and soda ash dust, achieving 40,000+ hours service life where standard steel rollers corrode and seize. Sealed stainless steel bearings with labyrinth protection prevent trona dust and moisture ingress — critical for reliable operation in underground mine environments.

Long Distance Curved Belt Conveyor
High-capacity overland trona transport from mine portal to soda ash processing plant. Steel cord belts with tensile strength up to 4000 N/mm handle thousands of tons per day across distances of 5-20km. Curved designs follow natural terrain through the Wyoming or Turkish landscape, eliminating transfer stations and truck fleets — reducing transport costs by over 40% while ensuring continuous raw material supply.

Bucket Wheel Stacker Reclaimer
High-capacity stacking and reclaiming for trona ore storage yards at mines and soda ash plants. Automated operation ensures consistent ore blending and homogenization — critical for stable calciner feed and soda ash quality. Corrosion-protected structures withstand alkaline dust while bucket wheel design handles the abrasive, variable-size nature of mined trona.

Overland Belt Conveyor
Reliable, high-capacity overland belt conveyor for trona transport from underground mine portals to surface stockpiles and processing facilities. Heavy-duty components and wear-resistant belts handle the abrasive trona ore while delivering lowest cost-per-ton over decades of operation. Designed for 24/7 continuous duty in the demanding trona mining environment.

spiral scraper conveyor
Fully enclosed spiral scraper conveyor for dust-free soda ash and calcined trona transfer between process stages. The sealed design prevents moisture ingress that causes caking in hygroscopic soda ash, while stainless steel construction resists alkaline corrosion. Low-speed operation minimizes product degradation — maintaining soda ash quality for glass, chemical, and detergent industry customers.

Truck Unloader
Corrosion-protected truck unloader for trona ore receiving at processing plants and rail load-out facilities. Stainless steel hopper liners and galvanized structures withstand alkaline trona dust corrosion. Integrated dust extraction controls airborne sodium sesquicarbonate particles at the source — protecting workers and meeting Mine Safety and Health Administration (MSHA) dust standards.

Heavy Duty Hopper Feeder
Corrosion-resistant heavy duty hopper feeder for controlled trona feeding to crushers, calciners, and dissolving tanks. Stainless steel contact surfaces and HDPE liners resist alkaline attack from sodium sesquicarbonate, while variable speed drives ensure precise feed rates for consistent calciner operation. Dust-tight covers prevent trona dust escape and moisture absorption that causes handling blockages.

Alkaline Corrosion Protection
HDPE rollers, stainless steel contact surfaces, and specialized coatings resist chemical attack from sodium sesquicarbonate and soda ash dust — extending equipment service life in the alkaline trona processing environment where standard steel deteriorates rapidly.
Moisture-Proof Conveying
Enclosed pipe conveyors and sealed transfer points protect hygroscopic trona and soda ash from rain and humidity. Prevents the caking and clumping that clogs chutes, blocks conveyors, and disrupts continuous calciner feed.
Trona Dust Containment
Enclosed conveying systems, dust extraction at transfer points, and sealed loading spouts control airborne trona dust — protecting workers from respiratory exposure, preventing dust accumulation on equipment, and meeting MSHA dust standards for underground and surface operations.
Proven in Wyoming & Beyond
Heavy-duty components engineered for the abrasive nature of mined trona. Long-distance overland conveyors replace truck fleets for mine-to-plant transport — reducing costs while ensuring the continuous, reliable raw material supply that soda ash production demands.
