Hydrocyclones separate and classify fine and coarse materials prior to flotation. Fines, or right sized particles, pass through the top of the hydrocyclone (vortex) for processing, while heavier solids discharge though the bottom of the hydrocyclone (apex) and back to regrind or directly to tailings. Isolating the hydrocyclone feed allows the system to maintain pressure, volume and separation.
The following products are capable of providing zero leakage shutoff of hydrocyclone feed and discharge lines. They are also engineered for rapid, on-site repair with convenient spare parts kits to minimize downtime and maintenance costs.
Addressing sustainability challenges in utility and water management in mining is crucial for ensuring the long-term viability of resources and meeting both regulatory demands and community needs. Below are the top four challenges in this sector: Water Scarcity and Drought Management As populations grow and climate change impacts become more pronounced, managing limited water resources …
En savoir plusAuthor: Douglas Morris One of the most ubiquitous operations in any mine is the use of hydrocyclones (cyclones) in the comminution circuit to sort particle sizes for mineral processing. Downstream of this process is the flotation circuit, which can be adversely affected if there is an upset with cyclones. Poor cyclone performance will impact recovery, …
En savoir plusManaging water efficiently is crucial in mining—any uncertainty can lead to elevated costs, safety and environmental risks, and operational inefficiencies. Emerson’s advanced flow technologies, including the Flexim Non-Intrusive Ultrasonic Flow Meter and the Rosemount™ Magnetic Flow Meter, are designed to address and alleviate these sector-specific challenges. Perfect for both EPC contractors...
