Project:Process Control & Automation
Xstrata
BESTECH led the integration, construction and commissioning of the Outotec Courier on stream analyzer (OSA) system. This OSA system enabled the mill to obtain real time and accurate assay analysis, allowing the operators to make decisions which yielded better extraction results.
The Mill upgraded the existing sample analyzer to the new Outotec Courier 6iSL Analyzer. The upgrade included included 19 inline sample points from across the mill which would allow samples to be drawn from the process flow automatically without disrupting the process. BESTECH also developed all the training documentation and training operations personnel on sampling through the 6iSL and the overall operation of the system.
