Ore grades are continually declining, creating the need to obtain more out of coarser and finer fractions in flotation. The current global situation urges the need to find more sustainable mining processes.

Our Flotation Speed Optimization service is a proven solution that improves the pumping and metallurgical performance in the flotation cell while minimizing energy consumption. 

We have developed a five-step plan to implement improvements that vary rotation speeds using design experiments to gather data. This data is used to provide a simulation process to assess the potential of each flotation cell to provide optimal performance using minimal energy.

  • Site process study
  • Metallurgical simulation using HSC® Chemistry
  • Implement best rotation speed
