Uncharted Waters- Processing Plant at Maximum Capacity, Soto urges Digital Simulation Safety Test

Australia’s mining industry often acts as an indicator for the industry on a global level, and according to engineering and design company, Soto Consulting, it is also where pressures to achieve greater resources processing rates have unearthed a hidden risk for company owners and managers. “Situations are occurring where a processing plant is pushed to maximum capacity for the very first time, and these are unchartered waters for site owners that have never tested their technologies at that high level or beyond the nameplate capacity of their plant.” Soto carrries out plant analysis and capacity evaluations in the mining sector, and says the digital simulation environment is the ideal test platform for plant owners and managers to foresee any complications.
