About the Book: Circulating Load: Practical Mineral Processing Plant Design
Minerals processing plant design and operations from the mining industrys
leading engineers, consultants, and operators. In addition to valuable guidance
on overall project management, the papers address the design, optimization, and
control of all related processes, including crushing and grinding, separation,
flotation, pumping and material transport, pre-oxidation, extraction, and proper
disposal of by-products and tailings. Mineral processing plants have distributed
control systems and information management systems; this book also describes the
current platforms and toolkits available for implementing these advanced data
processing and control systems. Some applications to real mineral processing
plants or laboratory/pilot scale set-ups highlight the benefits
