Better Performing Hydrocyclones With Reliable Feed Isolation

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.

Author: 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, …

How Instrumentation Helps Control and Improve Production for Critical...

One of the challenges of commodity producers in general and mining companies in particular is that they have very little control over demand and pricing for their products. Individual producers benefit or suffer through up and down cycles, and find they really only have control over their own internal variables. These days, specialty metals and …
