[Mar 2019] Hardness variability impact on sizing a solar energy system integrated into a SAG mill

Two papers have been published in collaboration with colleagues from Universidad de Chile and University of Stuttgart in the journal Minerals Engineering.

Studying the integration of solar energy into the operation of a semi-autogenous grinding mill. Part I: Framework, model development and effect of solar irradiance forecasting

Studying the integration of solar energy into the operation of a semi-autogenous grinding mill. Part II: Effect of ore hardness variability, geometallurgical modeling and demand side management

The papers can be donwloaded here (part I) and here (part II).
