Applications
Iron ore concentrators
Online measurement of Si, Al, S, C, Mg, Ca, and other light element concentrations in feed and concentrate streams. Supports optimal product quality without compromising recovery.
Iron pellet plants
On-line measurement of Si, Ca, C, Al, and Mg before and after additive mixing.
Ni flotation from serpentinized ores
On-line measurement of Mg and other light element concentrations in feed and concentrate streams.
Optimal product quality without sacrificing recovery.
Laterite Ni concentrators
On-line measurement of Si, Al, Fe, and other light element gangue minerals in feed and concentrate
streams. Optimal product quality without sacrificing recovery.
Zn and Pb concentrators
On-line measurement of Si, Mg, Al, and concentrations of other light element gangue minerals in feed and
concentrate streams.
Sulfide gold concentrators
Measurement of S, As, and Fe in concentrate to optimize autoclave operation. Measurement of sulfides in flotation tailings to monitor recovery. Measurement of C to optimize carbonaceous matter removal.
Phosphate concentrators
Final concentrate quality control: measurement of P content and Ca/P ratio. Flotation recovery optimization and reagent control: measurement of P in feed, concentrate, and tailings. Measurement of penalty elements (Mg and Si).
Spodumene concentrators
Final LiO2 grade control and recovery optimization by Li measurement. Measurement of Fe in the final product. Measurement of other light elements e.g. Ca, K, Mg and Na..
