Description
Summary:[...]it's tempting to look for large-scale savings involving major process changes, but these can be daunting in terms of capital expense, production interruption and performance risk. [...]Wasmund told E&MJ that, combined with the HydroFloat for coarse flotation, the StackCell for slow-floating midsize range particles has the ability to revolutionize mineral processing by reducing energy consumption, as well as capital costs - just two examples of how the company is working to change the mineral processing business to be less energy and capital intensive for the future.
