METALLURGICAL DECISION CRITERIA • ROLES.JSON
Cell & Conditioner Selection Matrix (50, 100, 200 y 300 ft³ (1.4 a 8.5 m³))
Required Slurry Variables Daily processing throughput (t/d), slurry solids density (%), target kinetic residence time (min), and bank role (Rougher/Scavenger/Cleaner).
Tank & Lining Specification Rule Structural plate tank (6 to 10 mm) with hot-vulcanized internal abrasion rubber lining. Dart valves with pneumatic or manual positioning.
Operational Risk Mitigated Prevents heavy solids sanding at tank bottoms and premature froth weir erosion due to pulp turbulence.
