Technical Comments i Process Design considers 12 hour cycle i Mechanical Design considers the filters rated at 350 k. Pa. i Operating Costs for Co. Matrix will be lower, value depends on backwash i Coalescing Plates not considered a consumable. Some extra cost added into Capital Spares (see op cost tables)
Organic Recovery • To Recover - Entrained Organic solution from the electrolyte prior to Electro-winning • Entrained Organic defined as droplets of organic solution not miscible in the aqueous portion • Current technology considers the use of Ø Column Flotation Ø Coalescers Ø SX Dual Media Filters • This presentation reviews the electrolyte filtration step in the organic recovery process.
Design Concept l Anthracite bed holding capacity defined in kg organic per m 2 anthracite bed surface l Anthracite load bearing capacity defines filter capacity l Coalescing plates take out part of the organic load l Less organic load on anthracite bed means » Longer cycles without backwash » Higher feed rates for the same cycle » Higher organic content in feed
3/hr Feed Flow of 1800 m Dual Media – Design Base - 12 m 3/hr. m 2 l 150 m 2 of Filter Area l 10 x 4. 6 m (15’) diameter DM Filters Co. Matrix – Design Base - 60 m 3/hr. m 2 l 30 m 2 of Filter Area l 3 x 3. 6 m (12’) diameter Filters
Co. Matrix Benefits o Smaller Foot Print, less instruments, less valves, piping, controls etc. o Lower Capital Cost o Lower Operating Cost » Less Filter Media » Backwash Water Consumption 6 lt per m 3 Electrolyte » Dual Media Backwash Consumption +- 19 lt per m 3 Electrolyte o Can accept higher Organic in Feed Stream – if lower design rates used
Industrial Scale Pilot Plant Trials Objectives: o Compare Operation of Co. Matrix Design to standard Dual Media Design Test Runs – Oxide Cu Leach Plant in Chile o Dual Media ran at design Rate – 12 m 3/hr. m 2 o Co. Matrix ran at: ü 3 x DM Filtration Rate - 36 m 3/hr. m 2 ü 4 x DM Filtration Rate - 48 m 3/hr. m 2 ü 5 x DM Filtration Rate - 60 m 3/hr. m 2
Industrial Scale Pilot Plant Trials Measurements o Operating Time – in service o Backwash Time – out of service o Flow Rates o Pressure drops during in and out of service operations Pilot Equipment o 0. 05 m 2 Co. Matrix Filter x 3 mts high + filter media, Co. Matrix packs, valves, PLC etc.
