The Power of Microwave Technology in Mining
Environmental Benfits
Microwave systems are 100% electric powered and can readily replace natural gas fired convention heaters. Microwaves have no particulate, CO₂ or NOx emissions.
Increased Production
Softened rock is easier to cut and process, leading to higher throughput. Microwave antennas fitted to mining machines have demonstrated less wear on cutting tools.
Reduced Operating Costs
Less energy consumption and wear on equipment translate to substantial cost savings. Reduced downtime for bit replacement alone can save enormous amounts of money.
Energy
Efficency
Pretreating ore with microwave energy can reduce the energy needed to extract and process valuable minerals. Fast exposure of ore pebbles to microwave can speed up grind time.
Applications in the Mining Industry
Rock Cutting
Our microwave antennas can be fitted directly to mining machines during cutting and extraction, resulting in: Higher cutting rates Significantly less wear on expensive cutting tools Reduced downtime for bit replacement
Mineral Liberation
In ore processing, fast exposure of ore pebbles to intense microwaves causes extensive micro-fracturing. This can: Speed up grind time in mills Result in substantial energy savings Increase process rates
Ore Processing
Microwave pre-treatment of ores can: Increase metal yield by releasing metal particles that would otherwise have remained trapped in the gangue Result in finer particle sizes in the grinding process, improving flotation yield
