DELIVERING A BROAD RANGE OF COPPER AND MOLYBDENUM PROCESSING SOLUTIONS
Recovery, Grade, and Sustainability - Driving Value for Copper Processing Operations
Today’s copper processing operation requires a calculated combination of safety, profitability, efficiency, and product quality while helping to sustain the surrounding environmental resources. Your process depends on a carefully balanced flotation circuit that considers everything from inbound ore and water quality to the correct chemistry within the circuit itself. Nalco Water offers a wide range of frothers and collectors that allow you to optimize your conditions for optimal flotation performance.
By choosing the appropriate partner, you can significantly improve recovery and selectivity in your operations, whether you are recovering copper, molybdenum, or both. Beyond copper flotation, Nalco Water can partner with you in everything from material handling to tailings management, allowing you to optimize your entire operation from mine to mill.
