Process Modelling
FLOTATION PROCESS
QANTM
I created created the central interface to this e-learning application. The application covers the basic techniques and chemical reactions that take place during the mineral extraction Flotation process. The process involves the mixing of raw material and water with different types and levels of chemicals then pumping air through the mixture to seperate cooper, zinc and other metallic components.
This visualisation combines interface, data and process modelling to provide the user with an intuitive overview of the process. The actual process is extremely complex with many dependancies and subtitles based around the combination of multiple cells and varying the amounts of air and chemicals to produce a quality output.
The application is to teach grades 10-12 some of the techniques involved in the chemical reactions that take place during the Flotation process. The process involves the mixing of dirt and water with air pumped through it. With a mixture of chemicals the process can remove cooper, zinc and other metallic components.
