There are improved liberation data-processing tools as well as enhanced unit models of mineral processing equipment to provide more detailed data on particle size, density, composition and distribution. The Mineralogical …
At this stage, the mineral is mixed with water and wet milled to an optimal granulometry to achieve flotation. The flotation process yields two products, a concentrate and tail streams, that are sent to dewatering systems for water recovery. These systems usually include thickeners, hydrocyclones, and filters.
Within the mineral extraction and processing industries, edge computing is potentially a powerful tool that could be applied in industrial settings, since it effectively tackles several infrastructure problems, through a reduction in data bandwidth requirements and correspondingly the amount of workload in dry labs.
