MI3004 — Mineral Processing – Unit Optimization

Builds on foundational concepts from Unit Operations, advancing students’ knowledge of how mineral processing circuits are monitored, evaluated, and optimized for recovery, throughput, and efficiency. Learners analyze key performance indicators such as grind size, reagent dosage, slurry density, and mass balance results to troubleshoot plant performance and recommend improvements. Students work with process data, sampling techniques, and diagnostic tools to understand how feed characteristics, equipment settings, and operational conditions impact circuit behaviour.
