摘要
A method is proposed to perform on-line material balance of flotation circuits using on-stream analyzer assays. The method uses a least-squares recursive algorithm derived from the node imbalance method developed to perform steady-state mass balance. Results of the real-time application of the method to a Canadian concentrator are presented and are in good agreement with plant production data over a 32-day comparison period.
