Case Study
Poderosa Gold Processing Plant - Determination of slurry density in the thickener underflow
Case Study FOR FURTHER INFORMATION Please contact Rhosonics Phone: +31 341 – 37 00 73 Email: info@rhosonics.nl Website: www.rhosonics.nl RESULTS • Automated process control in the filtering plant • An increased efficiency of the tailings filtering • No licences, permits or specialized personnel necessary for the density meter thanks to the ultrasonic technology instead of nuclear source • Payback time of approximately 2 years SOLUTION The Rhosonics SDM Slurry Density Meter is a good solution for this measuring task, because of its reliable, stable and real-time density measurement results. The density measurement signal (4-20 mA) is sent to a PID loop controller and is used to control the speed reference of the pumps and the closing and opening of automatic
