The Flotation Process Can Go Green

Intelligent Control for Flotation Process

In the flotation process, the concentrate grade and the tailing grade are crucial technical indices which reflect the product quality and efficiency. There are strong nonlinearity and uncertainty in such technical indices dynamic behaviors, which can hardly be described using accurate mathematical model. The technical indices which cannot be measured online continuously vary with boundary condi...

Training Simulator for Flotation Process Operators

This paper presents a novel simulation concept for operator training in the field of mineral processing. The simulations are carried out with a dynamic process simulator HSC Sim ® of HSC Chemistry ® developed by Outotec Research Oy. The simulator is fitted to mimic an existing copper flotation circuit as accurately as possible by using metallurgical models and then integrated into a larger simu...

Go Green, Go Online to take your course

Caries diagnosis is one of the most basic diagnostic skills that oral healthcare professionals must learn; and yet, it remains one of the most difficult skills to reliably and predictably master. In this course we will review the various caries detection technologies available to assist the dental professional with this complex task. Many dental schools in the U.S. are adopting a new system for...

Automating the Ada Binding Process for Java- How Far Can We Go?

This paper describes an automated approach for generating Ada bindings from Java class files. We start with the set of Java features that require a visible Ada binding, and an Ada compiler’s definition of how to interface Ada and Java. We discuss how to obtain the Java definitions from the class file and then translate them into an Ada binding (using the GNAT binding approach). While it is poss...
