Solvent extraction involves the use of chemical solvents and specialized equipment to separate valuable metals or minerals from their ores. To ensure optimal performance in mining operations, operators rely on various key performance indicators (KPIs) to monitor and assess the efficiency of the process. These KPIs include factors such as extraction yield, organic-to-aqueous ratio, organic phase impurities, and solvent losses. By attentively analyzing and optimizing these metrics, operators can significantly improve resource recovery, increase operational efficiency, and reduce costs. For comprehensive monitoring and control of these KPIs, operators can turn to Emerson's Measurement Instrumentation solutions. Emerson's cutting-edge technology empowers mining companies to achieve greater accuracy, reliability, and profitability in their solvent extraction processes.
The Rosemount 228 Toroidal Conductivity Sensor reliably measures conductivity in highly conductive electrolyte solutions up to 2 S/cm (2,000,000 µS/cm). These conductivity sensors work in dirty and corrosive applications where metal electrode sensors would otherwise fail. A robust sensor design makes the Rosemount 228 conductivity sensor ideal for measuring concentrations of acid, base and salt solutions.
The Rosemount 396P pH Sensor/ORP Sensor, with integral cable, is specifically designed for improved life in harsh, dirty, and abrasive applications such as lime slurry waste treatment, paper machine headbox and pigment/dye applications, where large quantities of suspended solids are present. The pH/ORP sensor features a coating resistant TUpH large area reference junction and a rugged polypropylene body construction for maximum chemical resistance.
Rosemount 8705 Flanged Magnetic Flow Meter Sensors provide long-lasting, reliable performance in even the most challenging applications. An all-welded construction provides a hermetic seal that protects against moisture and other contaminants. The sealed housing ensures maximum sensor reliability by protecting all internal components and wiring from even the most aggressive environments. A removable and replaceable terminal block enables easy repair in the field without the need to replace the entire meter.
