What will I learn?
Gain essential tools to enhance rougher-scavenger flotation performance for copper sulphide ores. Master flotation basics, froth dynamics, and effects of grind size, solids content, and water chemistry. Conduct test planning, design of experiments, and plant diagnostics, then use mass balances, performance indicators, and economic evaluations to achieve improved recovery, selectivity, and reduced costs.
