You need to ensure your processes are performing optimally to maximize mineral recovery in the most cost-effective way. That's never an easy task especially with outdated systems and work practices. Emerson's team of experts can help you identify opportunities to improve your recovery processes and implement an advanced control strategy that optimizes your entire mine/mill circuit from ore face to loadout.
There are a number of critical factors that affect the performance of a heap leaching system. The most important is properly sizing the ore. Next to proper ore sizing, leach solution distribution has the largest effect on mineral recovery. Emerson has worked with a number of miners to implement systems that can detect problems with emitters and improve irrigation and recovery.
Roping and plugging are common upset conditions that hinder the effective operation of your hydrocyclones. Emerson mining controls experts have developed hydrocyclone optimizer technology. This control and optimization application addresses the problems associated with roping, plugging, and undesired particle classification. It characterizes the different operating parameters of each cyclone. Having this information per cyclone allows the execution of efficient control strategies.
Get the most from your operations with the DeltaV distributed control system that delivers superior control with its embedded advanced control applications. The control power translates to fewer engineering hours and more effective operations.
In mining operations, the comminution process reduces mined solid materials through crushing, grinding and other means. SAG and Ball mills are one of the most critical pieces of equipment for the process. Mining operators need to optimize grinding mill performance, and reliability to ensure tight shutoff and better recovery.
