SUMMARY:Understanding Mineral Processing for Non-Metallurgists – Perth & Online
DESCRIPTION:\nPresenter: Dr Leon Lorenzen CPEng, CEng, PrEng, FIEAust, FAusIMM, FIChemE, FSAIMM, MAICD\n\n\n\nThis 1-day course has been designed for engineers, geologists, mineralogists, environmental scientists, plant operators, marketers, financial advisors and those either dealing with mineral processing (extractive metallurgy) or wanting a better understanding of the principles of extractive metallurgy.\n\n\nThe focus of the course is to look at the science of mineral processing from a non-metallurgist’s point of view. It explores principles of geology, mineralogy, chemistry, mineral processing and economics as they apply to mineral processing unit operations and explains in simple terms, from how metal is geologically detected, extracted from various rocks and minerals to the final metal product.\nThe course provides an overview of extractive metallurgical principles in the design and operation of process plants – and also discusses issues such as metallurgical testwork, metallurgical accounting, environmental management and other common aspects of practical extractive metallurgy.\nCourse content:\nMineral Processes:\n\nMineralogy\nGeometallurgy\nOre Terminology\nTypes of Minerals\nOre Processing\n\nComminution\nParticle Technology\nTransport and Storage\nMineral Beneficiation and Extraction\nSeparation and Classification Processes (Dry and Wet)\nChemical Processes\n\nHydrometallurgy\nThermal Processes\n\nPyrometallurgy\n\n\n\n\nPurification and Recovery Processes\nEnvironmental Management\n\n\n\nSchematic Flow Diagram of Mineral Processing\nOre Preparation Unit Operations:\n\nDiscussion/Examples and Animations\n\nOre Processing/Ore Size Reduction:\n\nCrushing\nMilling\nComminution Variations\n\nParticle Technology:\n\nStockpiling\nSorting\nSize Separation\nScreens and Grizzlies\nFeeding\nConveying Storage\nCleaning\nThickening\nFiltering Drying\nPollution Control\n\nMetal Production\nMineral Beneficiation and Extraction:\n\nSeparation and Classification Processes (Dry and Wet)\nPhysical Separation\n\nGravity and Density (wet and dry)\nJigs\nCyclones\nHeavy Medium Separation\nFlotation (Process, Circuits and Surface Chemistry)\nMagnetic and Electrostatic Separation\n\n\n\nChemical Processes (Hydrometallurgy):\n\nLeaching\nChemistry and Reaction Kinetics\nCounter Current Decantation and Washing\nSolution Concentration and Purification\nCementation and Precipitation\nSolvent Extraction (SX)\nActivated Carbon (CIL and CIP)\nIon Exchange (RIP)\nMetal Production\nElectrowinning\nTypical Flowsheets\n\nThermal Processes (Pyrometallurgy):\n\nPyrometallurgical Pre-Treatment Processes\nRoasting\nCalcination\nDrying\nSmelting\nConverting\nRefining\n\nProcess Specific Flowsheet and Optimization Section:\n\nFor example Gold, BMS, PGM, Iron Ore, etc. specific\nProcess Flowsheet\nProcess Optimization\n\nEnvironmental Management:\n\nEnvironmental Risks\nBaseline Assessments, Approvals and Compliance\nTailings Disposal\nWater Pollution\nDust Control\n\nMetal Accounting and Costs:\n\nMetallurgical Accounting\n\nBasic Principles\n\n\nOperating Costs\n\nFixed/Variable relationships\nComponents (labour, stores, power, overheads etc)\n\n\nCapital Costs\n\nComponents (direct, indirect and contingencies)\n\n\nAccuracy & precision\nEstimation (scaling, 2/3 rule)\n\nTypical Processes for Major Commodities\nMetal and Mineral Final Products and Applications\nDuration (in days)\n1\nPrice in AU Dollars\nIn-house /Online or Onsite training is a cost-effective way of getting your whole team trained.\nContact Us\nFor additional information, please email training@snowdenoptiro.com.\n\n\n\n\n
