OUTOTEC OYJ PRESS RELEASE, APRIL 27, 2012 1:00 PM
Outotec provides flotation technology for Kennecott Utah Copper concentrator in
the U.S.
Outotec has signed a contract with Kennecott Utah Copper to supply 30
TankCell(®) e300 flotation cells, with an option for an additional 10 cells for
retrofit of the company's Copperton Concentrator. The contract was booked in
Outotec's Q1 order intake.
In addition to Outotec's proprietary flotation and automation technology supply,
the scope of delivery also includes Outotec's new Virtual Experience Training
program. The training is based on dynamic flotation process simulation and
provides the operating personnel a safe environment to practice the ramp-up and
special sequences of the production process. The delivery of services and
equipment will begin towards the second half 2012 and will occur in stages
through mid 2013.
The Copperton Concentrator, located close to Salt Lake City, Utah, processes ore
mined from Bingham Canyon and produces copper and molybdenum concentrates.
"For this project, Kennecott carried out extensive benchmarking to identify the
best technology in terms of optimized metallurgy, energy efficiency, flotation
of coarse particles, handling rocks in the pulp, and maintainability of the
equipment. Naturally, we are proud that the performance of our flotation cells
fulfills the high expectations. This contract along with nearly 300 sold
TankCell(®) e300 flotation cells worldwide indicate that we are the market
leader in flotation technology", states Outotec's president and CEO Pertti
Korhonen.
