MetPlant 2008 is the sixth in the series of conferences
on Metallurgical Plant Design and Operating Strategies, reporting
state-of-the-art advances in metallurgical processing of ores covering plant
design from test work, establishing successful design teams to meet client
requirements, designing and building greenfield plants, plant expansions and
retrofits, use of new technologies in processing ores, plant control and
sampling, maintenance and the whole-of-life of operations through to site
closure, and water and tailings management.
The keynote addresses detail the role of the metallurgist
in project development, the design and building of new plants, and a more
rigorous approach to metallurgical accounting.
The papers in proceedings cover developments in design
and operation across comminution, gravity, hydrometallurgy, flotation, water
recovery, modelling and control. They provide insights into the conceptual
thinking and methodologies now used by design engineers, consultants and plant
metallurgists in the way plants are built, operated and upgraded to higher
tonnage, greater efficiency and lower operating cost.
