ALGORITHM FOR LOCAL LOOP OPTIMIZATION OF MULTISTAGE FLOTATION PROCESSES
Keywords:
flotation, local loop optimization (LСO), optimization algorithms, multi-stage processes (MSP), parameter optimization, loop control, optimization models, automation of flotation processesAbstract
This paper discusses the application of the Local Loop Optimization algorithm to improve the parameters of a multistage flotation process. The basic idea is to adjust process parameters such as reagent feed rates, equipment volumes and others to maximize the yield of valuable minerals and minimize losses. The technique involves iterative application of the Local Loop Optimization algorithm to process models based on physical and chemical principles of flotation. Initial approximations for the parameters are taken from experimental data or previous experiments.
