Application of streaming elemental analysis by neutron-radiation method on non-ferrous metal ores
Non-ferrous metallurgy requires the creation of operational control points that allow real-time information on the elemental composition of ore batches. This allows to quickly make decisions on the management of the technological process, as well as accumulate statistics for the deployment in the future of solutions based on historical data sets. This presentation will showcase the applicability of neutron-radiation analysis technology for solving this problem, highlight the achievable accuracy for non-ferrous metal ores and the prospects for such solutions.
