Chemometric Optimisation of a Copper Sulphide Tailings Flocculation Process in the Presence of Clays
The presence of fine and ultra-fine gangue minerals in flotation plants can contribute to sub-optimal valuable ore recovery and incomplete water recycling from thickeners, with the performance of the latter equipment relying on adequate flocculation. In order to study the dependence of the flocculat...
