Eurasian Sources Group (ERG) says it will likely be capable of monitor moisture content material and the chemical composition of the chromium ore extracted at its Kazchrome’s Donskoy Ore Mining and Processing Plant (Donskoy GOK) in a matter of seconds, on the conveyor belt, because of the set up of a GEOSCAN-M move evaluation system.
The brand new system, the primary such system put in in Kazakhstan’s mining and metals business, permits the real-time monitoring of moisture content material and the focus of 5 chemical parts (chromium, iron, calcium, silicon and aluminium) in ore, in response to ERG. The margin of error doesn’t exceed 1%. The analyser can course of as much as 1,200 t/h of ore at a conveyor belt velocity of as much as 2 m/s.
Scantech Worldwide says the Geoscan-M is a high-performance elemental analyser utilizing Immediate Gamma Neutron Activation Evaluation (PGNAA) to measure the basic composition repeatedly in actual time, by means of the total conveyed cross part in order that your complete move will be representatively measured.
Historically, the chemical composition of the feed on the conveyor belt is monitored by means of chemical evaluation of samples taken from the belt. The process takes a number of hours. ERG has determined to automate this course of at Donskoy GOK as a lot as doable.
Late final 12 months, ERG geared up the conveyor belt of crushing and processing plant No. 1 with the Bashnya Prob sampling system, eliminating the necessity for guide pattern taking. With this method, the corporate’s specialists not have to maneuver heavy samples, and there’s no must cease the belt line, so its throughput has elevated. Now the GEOSCAN-M move evaluation system additional streamlines the processing of uncooked supplies.
Alexey Ganyushkin, Venture Supervisor for the GEOSCAN-M chromium ore move evaluation system set up, acknowledged: “The system is automated, and all the info is instantly despatched to the knowledge system of Donskoy GOK. Course of engineers, miners and different specialists can monitor the chromium content material within the ore in actual time and alter its processing accordingly. The system minimises technological errors and can assist enhance the accuracy of warehouse stock management.”
