Z1600 JAMESON CELL TEST RIG - FROM RENTAL TO REVENUE

摘要

A Z1600 Jameson Cell Test Rig was rented for test work at Vale's Clarabelle Mill operation. This paper discusses the evolution of renting the unit for test purposes to owning the unit and operating it as a revenue generating process component. The paper focuses on three aspects of the Z1600 project; the initial rental and installation, the test work performed in the cleaning circuit, and the business factors which led to the unit being permanently incorporated into the copper circuit.
