Upgrades that improve performance to help you reach your sustainability targets

Reduced energy consumption

FloatForce and eDrive consume less energy

High metallurgical performance

Improving flotation hydrodynamics and pumping performance at high air dispersion rates enhances particle recovery

Increased availability and capacity

State-of-the-art automation solutions and optimized flotation circuit

Lower operating costs

Tailor-made flotation circuit based on in-depth test work with proven technology

Benefits

We optimize cell volume, froth carry rate, and residence time for your flotation duty. Having fewer, higher volume cells is more cost efficient to operate and maintain than multiple cells with a smaller volume.

Offers superior metallurgical performance for all flotation applications
Improves availability and increases capacity
Makes operation and maintenance easier
Lowers maintenance costs and reduces spares turnover
Reduces energy consumption and has a smaller plant footprint
Requires less auxiliary equipment than multiple, smaller cells

Flotation modernizations customer cases

A performance-based upgrade, guaranteeing metallurgical performance through a customized process guarantee to maximize economic benefits.

A recovery increase of 0.74% Cu and 0.82% Mo was achieved after the installation of a simple center launder upgrade.

New Afton’s last two TankCell® 100 were modernized with center launders which drastically improved the froth zone characteristics.

Metso Outotec and Hudbay worked together to improve rougher flotation performance at Hudbay’s Constancia site, located in southern Peru.

The retrofit improved recovery, reliability and availability of equipment. Costs and energy were saved.
