Part 3: Process control and operating philosophy

Posted by:

This is part three of Our Simulation Platform blog. In this month’s post, we discuss how we integrate process control and plant operating philosophies into process simulations.

You can catch up on our previous blog topics here:

Part 1: Our Simulation Platform
Part 2: Multicomponent comminution modelling

So, onto the topic of process control and simulation. The role of process control and operating philosophies (aka human control) in mineral processing plant simulation is ...

Part 2: Multi-component comminution modelling

Posted by:

Welcome to Part 2 of Our Simulation Platform blog series.

In Part 1, we discussed how we have developed a suite of comminution, classification and concentration unit operations that complement SysCAD’s existing extractive metallurgical capability.

In this post, we discuss a particular key enhancement to the comminution and classification models; multi-component modelling.

Mineral processing flowsheet simulation packages like JKSimMet treat ore as a single solid component of a stream, possessing one set of comminution indices and a ...

Part 1: Our Simulation Platform

Posted by:

On many of the pages on our website, you will find references to a simulation platform that we use to underpin our consulting solutions.

We haven’t been very specific about actual the simulation platform we use, as we believe it is the solutions that matter most to our clients. Nevertheless, there is still a degree of merit in outlining our approach to process simulation, as it can help our clients (current and prospective) understand how we are able to address their ...

Ore To Product

Posted by:

Met Dynamics has pioneered the use of simulation tools to optimise the entire mineral value chain, from ore to saleable product.

Through our Ore To Product framework, we are able to comprehensively describe the processes of mining, comminution, classification, concentration and extraction in a single, integrated simulation platform.

Ore To Product is a joint tool used by both mine production planning and metallurgy and allows both groups to communicate objectives and constraints effectively.

Ore To Product approach is applied across the full Life-Of-Mine and has ...
