Metso Outotec is introducing yet another innovative plant concept, Flotation Plant Units, to its unique minerals processing portfolio. The solution provides unparalleled metallurgical performance by seamlessly integrating functional design with a comprehensive scope, leading to high operational reliability and a fast return on investment. Compared to the traditional delivery, Flotation Plant Units result in the earliest time-to-volume.
“In flotation, changing ore types can cause recovery losses, and poorly integrated plant equipment leads to underperformance. Maximizing overall performance and reliability requires in-depth understanding of the complex flotation circuit sizing. All these concerns have been taken into consideration in the design of the Metso Outotec modularized Flotation Plant Units to provide unmatched results. The plant units feature industry-leading technologies, which also include several Planet Positive solutions. The units consist of state-of-the-art flotation equipment, conditioners, froth handling systems, as well as automation and sophisticated services,” explains Tatu Miettinen, Product Manager, Flotation Islands at Metso Outotec.
Metso Outotec Flotation Plant Units offer unique benefits
- Integrates flotation circuit testing, piloting, and modeling capabilities from in-house test centers and modeling software into unrivalled flotation circuit design capabilities
- One-stop-shop from testing to full plant delivery
- Froth handling is designed for a high operational window, allowing for flexibility in circuit operation
- High emphasis on accessibility
- Maximized maintainability and froth visibility thanks to optimal pipe and cable routing, which keeps the top of the cells clear
- Safe, easy and representative process sampling
- Option to vary flotation circuit configuration online
More information on the Flotation Plant Units is available on their website.
Metso Outotec has one of the widest portfolios of flotation solutions on the market. The company’s extensive experience in process plant design combined with its installed base of over 15,000 flotation equipment installations around the world enables Metso Outotec to design and deliver complete optimized flotation circuits catering to all types of applications and ores. The company’s comprehensive service portfolio extends from spares and wears to advanced life cycle services and is backed by a global network of industry-leading service expertise. The wide variety of upgrades enables the restoration of outdated existing technology for optimized flotation performance and the achievement of sustainability targets.
The Flotation Plant Units are Metso Outotec’s fourth complete plant unit launch for concentrator plants. The previous launches include Stirred Mill Plant Units and Horizontal Mill Plant Units and Filtration Plant Units.
