      Eriez StackCell 浮选技术 —— 提升传统浮选工艺

      Neste vídeo, descubra como a tecnologia StackCell da Eriez funciona para melhorar a flotação convencional. Veja o processo passo a passo detalhando como o StackCell é capaz de separar minerais valiosos como ouro e cobre de resíduos a taxas maiores para recuperação de partículas altamente eficiente. A flotação é uma técnica de processamento mineral que separa minerais valiosos como ouro e cobre dos resíduos, ligando-os a bolhas de ar, formando uma espuma que é eliminada. Melhora a eficiência de recuperação, especialmente para minérios finos e de baixo grau. A Flotação de Alta Intensidade Eries StackCell melhora a flotação convencional com uma cinética mais rápida e um design mais compacto. O processo começa quando o chorume entra no primeiro StackCell, misturando-se intensamente com bolhas finas, depois fluindo sequencialmente através de cada célula para recuperação mineral progressiva, sua cinética de flotação é cinco vezes mais rápida do que as células convencionais. As células convencionais dissipam energia em grandes volumes, reduzindo a turbulência e as interações de partículas de bolhas. O StackCell concentra energia em uma câmara compacta e de alto cisalhamento, gerando bolhas muito finas em torno de 100 mícrons e melhorando significativamente a recuperação de partículas finas. Um design exclusivo de dois estágios separa a coleta intensa de partículas da recuperação de espuma, alcançando uma fixação rápida, graus de concentração mais altos e resultados comparáveis em 1/3 do tempo, a mistura de alta intensidade aumenta a recuperação de partículas ultrafinas menores que 25 mícrons, melhorando significativamente a captura de minerais valiosos como ouro, cobre, níquel e platina. O design compacto e vertical de dois estágios reduz substancialmente as pegadas do circuito de flotação, permitindo maior rendimento por unidade de volume e menores custos de manutenção de capital e energia. É versátil e altamente eficaz na recuperação de metais preciosos, metais básicos e minerais especiais em uma ampla gama de aplicações. A StackCell oferece vários modelos adequados a diversas capacidades de processamento e requisitos operacionais específicos. Ele pode ser facilmente adaptado em locais brownfield para melhorar o desempenho da planta, e também é simples de instalar em locais Greenfield, exigindo espaço e investimento mínimos. Pilha célula um divisor de águas em baixo CAPEX, baixo OPEX, para alta eficiência, recuperação de partículas finas.

      Tecnología de flotación Eriez StackCell: mejora de la flotación convencional

      In this video, discover how StackCell technology from Eriez works to improve conventional flotation. See the step-by-step process detailing how StackCell is able to separate valuable minerals like gold and copper from waste at increased rates for highly efficient particle recovery. Flotation is a mineral processing technique that separates valuable minerals like gold and copper from waste, by attaching them to air bubbles, forming a froth that is skimmed off. It improves recovery efficiency, especially for fine and low-grade ores. Eries StackCell High Intensity Flotation improves conventional flotation with faster kinetics and a more compact design. The process begins as slurry enters the first StackCell, mixing intensely with fine bubbles, then flowing sequentially through each cell for progressive mineral recovery, its flotation kinetics are five times faster than conventional cells. Conventional cells dissipate energy over large volumes, reducing turbulence and bubble particle interactions. StackCell focuses energy in a compact, high-shear chamber, generating very fine bubbles around 100 microns, and significantly improving fine particle recovery. A unique two-stage design separates intense particle collection from froth recovery, achieving rapid attachment, higher concentrate grades and comparable results in 1/3 the time, high intensity mixing boosts recovery of ultrafine particles smaller than 25 microns, significantly improving the capture of valuable minerals such as gold, copper, nickel and platinum. The compact, vertical two-stage design substantially reduces flotation circuit footprints, allowing higher throughput per-unit volume and lower capital maintenance and energy costs. It is versatile and highly effective recovering precious metals, base metals and specialty minerals across a wide range of applications. StackCell offers multiple models suited to diverse processing capacities and specific operational requirements.
