The goal of mineral processing operations is to produce high-grade concentrate as efficiently as possible. Combining nextSTEP™ and WEMCO® flotation cells, our mixedROW flotation system delivers highest recovery rates and concentrate grade while lowering energy consumption.
FLS nextSTEP forced-air cells are placed at the start of the row, recovering easy floating material using the least amount of energy. WEMCO self-aspirated cells follow at the end of the row for coarse and fine particle recovery. It’s a combination that delivers maximum recovery rate and concentrate grade.
The system is engineered to provide an ideal flow stream and strong turbulence for increased bubble-particle rates and efficient recovery. Slurry is also transferred between cells with the lowest possible head loss via patented dart valves. The result is significantly lower energy consumption.
The mixedROW flotation system is easy to install and start-up, lower cost to run, and has a longer mechanism life. It can also treat a range of particle sizes within a single flotation row resulting in optimized metallurgical performance.
FLS froth cameras provide a clear image and analysis of froth movement over the launder, allowing for improved control of the flotation circuit and further optimizing performance.
Automatically adjust recovery rate based on an algorithm that works with froth cameras and online sample analysers.
