P1354 Extension of the development of Mineral Processing unit models.

Project Number: P1354
Status: Open to sponsors
Project manager: Redeemina Comfort Bonnah

Overview:

Amira P1354 represents the extension of the development of Mineral Processing unit models of the iconic P9 series of projects that began in 1962. For six decades Industry Sponsors of the P9 program have helped build a strong community of practice in Mineral Processing with a focus on automating and optimising stages and steps that will ultimately lead to a whole of system real time optimisation and adaption in implementation.

Over the last three iterations, i.e., specifically from P9O through to the recently completed P9Q, successful attempts at progressively improving the key mineral processing models into multicomponent capability, and integrating them in a circuit-wide application, have been undertaken. In addition, some success has been achieved in creating the platform that can carry the various models and assist in mass balancing and model fitting plant data to the refined P9 models.

Though significant progress has been made over the years, we have not yet reached the ultimate goal. The Amira P1354 project is designed to address key gaps in the optimisation of mineral processes through modelling and simulation, incorporating new equipment such as fine crushing. The objective is to develop a platform with multicomponent unit process models for integrated and circuit-wide optimisation.

The ultimate aim is to enable real-time process prediction, optimisation, and control of multicomponent mineral ore feeds through modelling, translating research outcomes directly to sponsor circuits.
