چکیده
to construct copper heap leaching structures, a stepped heap of ore is placed over an isolated sloping surface and then washed with sulphuric acid. the isolated bed of such a heap consists of some natural and geosynthetic layers. shear strength parameters between these layers are low, so they form the possible sliding surfaces of the heaps. economic and environmental considerations call for studying such slides. in this study, firstly, results of the laboratory tests carried on the materials of the heap leaching structures bed are presented. then, the instability mechanisms of such structures are investigated and proper approaches are summarized for their stabilization. finally, stability of the miduk copper heap is evaluated as a case history, and appropriate approaches and their effects are discussed for its stabilization.

متن کاملPassivity-Based Stability Analysis and Robust Practical Stabilization of Nonlinear Affine Systems with Non-vanishing Perturbations
This paper presents some analyses about the robust practical stability of a class of nonlinear affine systems in the presence of non-vanishing perturbations based on the passivity concept. The given analyses confirm the robust passivity property of the perturbed nonlinear systems in a certain region. Moreover, robust control laws are designed to guarantee the practical stability of the perturbe...
متن کاملHeap Leaching: Modelling and Forecasting Using CFD Technology
Heap leach operations typically employ some form of modelling and forecasting tools to predict cash flow margins and project viability. However, these vary from simple spreadsheets to phenomenological models, with more complex models not commonly employed as they require the greatest amount of time and effort. Yet, accurate production modelling and forecasting are essential for managing product...
متن کاملA Mathematical Model for Isothermal Heap and Column Leaching
Leaching occurs in metals recovery, in contaminated soil washing, and in many natural processes, such as fertilizer dissolution and rock weathering. This paper presents a model developed to simulate the transient evolution of the dissolved chemical species in the heap and column isothermal leaching processes. In this model, the solid bed is numerically divided into plane layers; the recovery of...
متن کاملInvestigative study into the hydrodynamics of heap leaching processes
Three mathematical models (mixed side-pore and profile side-pore diffusion with uniform or distributed pore length) are derived in dimensionless form to simulate the transport of solutes through the flowing channels and the stagnant pores of an unsaturated heap. Model parameters are determined from experimental tracer residence time distributions using the least square minimization approach. It...
متن کاملA Posteriori Analysis of Analytical Models for Heap Leaching Using Uncertainty and Global Sensitivity Analyses
The heap leaching of minerals is one of the more commonly used processes in the mining industry. This process has been modeled by many authors. However, the validation, verification, and implementation of these models are difficult since there is uncertainty about the operating conditions and the leaching model parameters. This work uses the uncertainty quantification, based on uncertainty and ...
