It is organised by MEI in consultation with Prof Markus Reuter and is sponsored by FLSmidth. Media sponsors are International Mining and the Coalition for Eco-Efficient Comminution (CEEC)\, the Cornwall Mining Alliance and the Critical Minerals Association are Industry Associates. \nDue to COVID-19 the conference will be held online. \nTHEMES \nThe rapid growth of the world economy is straining the sustainable use of the Earth’s natural resources due to modern society’s extensive use of metals\, materials and products. An astute and conscious application and use of metals\, materials and products supported by the reuse and recycling of these materials and end-of-life products is imperative to the preservation of the Earth’s resources. The realisation of the ambitions of sustainable use of metals\, materials and resources demands that the different disciplines of the material and consumer product system are connected and harmonised. This conference will discuss all aspects of material and metal usage by considering for example (but not exclusively): \n\nAcid Mine Drainage\nClean Technology (smelting\, energy recovery\, hydrometallurgical\, etc.)\nCoal Wastes\nEffluent Treatment (biological and chemical methods for water purification)\nEnergy Recovery\nWater use and recycling\nEnvironmental Impact Assessment Methodologies (LCA\, metrics for sustainability\, LCI\, etc.)\nIndustrial Applications (novel technology\, new methods\, breakthrough technology\, etc.)\nLegislation (REACH\, Basel\, Stockholm\, etc.)\nProcess Control (to monitor and optimize environmental performance of plants\, unit operations\, furnaces)\nProcessing of Industrial Wastes (slags\, chemical\, flue dusts\, sludges\, bottom ashes\, etc.)\nRecycling of Post Consumer Materials (car recycling\, waste electric and electronic equipment\, plastics\, paper)\nTailings Disposal at mine sites\nRecycling Systems (monitoring\, take-back systems\, etc.)\nRecycling Technology (separation\, automatic sorting\, sensors\, smelting\, etc.)\nSustainability (from an industrial as well as consumer point of view)\nSystem and other models for system optimization and Sustainability prediction\nCarbon emission controls; case studies of existing methods to reduce emissions and new technology being developed such as carbon capture and storage\nEfforts to reduce energy consumption in mining and mineral processing operations\nDevelopments in geopolymers as alternatives to conventional cements.\n\nCall for papers: Short abstracts\, of no more than 150 words\, should be emailed to Dr. Barry Wills in Rich Text Format (.rtf) by the end of March. Please ensure that your abstracts do not contain Figures\, References\, Tables or Equations. \nThe programme will be released closer to the time.

Media sponsors are International Mining and Imformed. Industry Associates are the Coalition for Eco-Efficient Comminution (CEEC)\, the Cornwall Mining Alliance and the Critical Minerals Association. \nAlthough chemical methods of concentration and extraction dominate the industry\, the physical separation methods are ubiquitous. Whether it be gravity concentration\, classification or dewatering\, the principles of separation are essentially the same\, and there is no mining operation in the world which does not make use of the density differences between solids and liquids somewhere in the flowsheet. Magnetic and electrical methods also have important roles to play when methods such as flotation fail. \nWith the need to reduce energy and water consumption\, sensor based automatic ore sorting is becoming increasingly important in comminution circuits\, in order to remove waste and sub-marginal grade material and produce a coarse upgraded preconcentrate early in the flowsheet\, and reduce the volume of final tailings. \nMEI's 7th Physical Separation conference will therefore bring together researchers and operators who have common interests in: \n\nGravity concentration methods - single and multi-G separators and dense medium separation\nClassification techniques - hydrocyclones\, air classifiers etc.\nSolid-Liquid Separation - thickeners\, clarifiers etc.\nElectronic Sorting\nMagnetic and electrostatic separation\nMicrowave technology. There are many aspects of mineral processing where the use of microwaves has potential and papers dealing with the enhancement of physical processes by microwaves are encouraged.\n\nCALL FOR PAPERS: If you would like to present a paper\, please submit a short abstract\, of no more than 150 words\, to bwills@mineng.com by the end of December 2021. \nCONFERENCE LOCATION: The conference will be held at the National Maritime Museum Cornwall (NMMC). Located on Discovery Quay in Falmouth\, there are 15 galleries over 5 floors and its exhibits explore the overwhelming influence of the sea on Cornwall’s\, the UKs and global history and culture. Delegates will have full access to the museum during the conference\, with presentations being held in the Sunley Lecture Theatre.

International Mining are media partners and the Cornwall Mining Alliance and the Critical Minerals Association are Industry Associates. \nAs the demand for resources continues to increase\, and amidst growing challenges of processing complex ores while minimising energy and environmental impact\, we are entering an exciting time for innovation in mineral processing. Innovation in individual unit operations is complemented by innovative approaches to the entire mineral processing flowsheet\, from rearrangement of an existing circuit to a new approach for a greenfield development. \nThis conference invites papers on new approaches to mineral processing circuits\, whether through design\, modelling\, optimisation or operation. This includes integration of unit operations (e.g. comminution and flotation)\, novel flowsheets that incorporate new equipment and new approaches to optimising circuit design. \nThis exciting new conference will cover: \n\nOptimisation and integration across different unit operations\nThe integration of new equipment into existing flowsheets\nCircuit layout design; modelling and optimisation\nEquipment selection methods URL:https://cornwallminingalliance.org/event/integratedminpro-22/ CATEGORIES:Devon & Cornwall,National & International ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/jpeg:https://cornwallminingalliance.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/02/National-Maritime-Museum-Cornwall-Biomining-21.jpg ORGANIZER;CN="Minerals%20Engineering%20International":MAILTO:bwills@min-eng.com END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
