HEAP LEACH – SX / EW
Senninger’ s WinSIPP2 software illustrates the uniformity, wetted diameter, and application pattern of a given profile through densograms. Then it displays the distribution uniformity of multiple overlapping devices to help determine what spacing would be optimum the application uniformity of sprinkler layouts before a system is installed. The program compares different spacings, sprinkler models, nozzle sizes, and operating pressures to determine which would be best for any specific installation.
Maximising recovery
In heap leaching, implementation of optimal leaching conditions in thick unsaturated heaps is often based on the assumption that percolation from land surface through the deep section of the unsaturated sediments would create the desired hydraulic and chemical conditions that promote leaching of the desired elements from the sediments. However, water application on land surface does not necessarily result in the desired chemical and hydraulic conditions in deep sections of the vadose zone. As such, in-situ monitoring of the actual conditions in the subsurface could contribute dramatically to optimisation of the leaching process. The ability to monitor deep sections of unsaturated sediments, such as prevails in ore heaps, was recently improved by the novel Sensoil Vadose zone Monitoring System( VMS) from Tenova Bateman Technologies( TBT). The VMS was specially developed to provide real time information on the hydrological and chemical properties of the percolating water across the unsaturated domain. It has been successfully tested in shallow alluvial aquifers with monitoring under ephemeral rivers in hyper-arid deserts in Namibia, South Africa, Israel and Spain.
