Critical Technologies for Unit Operations
ثبت نشده
چکیده
One of the principal goals guiding unit-ops technology development is that of reducing the cyclical or batch character of mining, making a mine operate more like a refinery. With few exceptions, unit-ops technologies in use today at mine sites in the United States will be in use in 2020. Technology changes that are being implemented are incremental and typically focus on increasing batch size, reducing cycle intervals, and boosting equipment availability. Expected commercial introductions for several unit-ops technologies are summarized in Table 3.1.

Nowadays, digital signal processors (DSPs) are appropriate choices for real-time image and video processing in embedded multimedia applications not only due to their superior signal processing performance, but also of the high levels of integration and very low-power consumption. Filtering which consists of multiple addition and multiplication operations, is one of the most fundamental operatio...
متن کاملCritical Technologies for Operations and Maintenance
Given the large expenditures on capital equipment characteristic of mining, technology developers and users alike place a very high priority on improving equipment productivity. Proper maintenance is essential to maximizing both availability and productivity. At the same time, maintenance services are a major cost element of all mine operations.1 Accordingly, after process optimization, equipme...

متن کاملTwo-stage Production Systems under Variable Returns to Scale Technology: A DEA Approach
Data envelopment analysis (DEA) is a non-parametric approach for performance analysis of decision making units (DMUs) which uses a set of inputs to produce a set of outputs without the need to consider internal operations of each unit. In recent years, there have been various studies dealt with two-stage production systems, i.e. systems which consume some inputs in their first stage to produce ...
