Analysis of Pump Requirements for Mine Dewatering Sump at Kerinci PT Cipta Kridatama Jobsite PT Kuansing Inti Makmur

Sump Kerinci PT Cipta Kridatama, the jobsite of PT Kuansing Inti Makmur, covers an area with coal reserves at an elevation of 26 meters. However, due to the high intensity of rain, the elevation of the sump increased to 38 meters, hampering mining activities. This study aims to design an efficient dewatering solution through the calculation of planned rainfall, runoff water discharge, and pump requirements, with a specific approach to the design of the open-pit mine drainage system at the research site. The research method involves analyzing historical rainfall data over the past eight years to calculate planned rainfall, rainfall intensity, and runoff water discharge using the Gumbel hydrological method. Pump requirements are calculated based on the technical specifications of the centrifugal pump and the topographical characteristics of the site. From the results of the analysis, it takes 24 pumps to dry the sump in one day, but this approach is not economical. Alternatively, the use of 3 pump units operating for 63 days is proposed as the optimal solution to reduce operational costs and meet the need for dewatering for two months.

Abstract

Sump Kerinci PT Cipta Kridatama, the jobsite of PT Kuansing Inti Makmur, covers an area with coal reserves at an elevation of 26 meters. However, due to the high intensity of rain, the elevation of the sump increased to 38 meters, hampering mining activities. This study aims to design an efficient dewatering solution through the calculation of planned rainfall, runoff water discharge, and pump requirements, with a specific approach to the design of the open-pit mine drainage system at the research site. The research method involves analyzing historical rainfall data over the past eight years to calculate planned rainfall, rainfall intensity, and runoff water discharge using the Gumbel hydrological method. Pump requirements are calculated based on the technical specifications of the centrifugal pump and the topographical characteristics of the site. From the results of the analysis, it takes 24 pumps to dry the sump in one day, but this approach is not economical. Alternatively, the use of 3 pump units operating for 63 days is proposed as the optimal solution to reduce operational costs and meet the need for dewatering for two months.
