Abstract

Artificial intelligence methods like expert systems and self-organizing maps have proved to be excellent tools for the control of mineral processes. This technology is currently being embedded directly into process equipment like flotation cells and dewatering filters. In this paper an intelligent, integrated control system for a pressure filter is described and the testing results presented and discussed.
