Jktech Specialist Software: Simulating Comminution and Classification Circuits With Jksimmet

JKSimMet is a computer software package developed by JKTech for simulating comminution and classification circuits in mineral processing operations. It allows users to build flowsheets of processing plants, assign models and parameters, simulate changes to operating conditions, and determine optimal throughput and product flows/size distributions. Standard features include interactive flowsheet specification, built-in model libraries, output displays and reports. Models include mills, crushers, screens, hydrocyclones and other equipment.

Simulating Comminution and Classification Circuits with JKSimMet


What is JKSimMet?
JKSimMet is an award-winning computer software
package, tailored specifically for both plant and
development metallurgists who wish to apply process
analysis techniques to characterise plant behaviour;
and for design engineers who require process
simulation models to assess design alternatives.
Developed out of the renowned Julius Kruttschnitt
Mineral Research Centre (JKMRC), the package
allows for the analysis and simulation of comminution
and classification circuits in mineral processing
operations. It incorporates models based on a large
database of operating plant data and extensively
tested in plant operations.
JKSimMet integrates all tasks associated with data
analysis, optimisation, design and simulation, including
the storage and manipulation of models, data and
results, within one package.
Mass balancing and model fitting of complete circuits
are standard features. It is fully interactive and operates
with high-resolution colour graphics. These graphics
facilitate the display of detailed plant flowsheets and
accompanying information.

Once a model of the comminution circuit is established


in JKSimMet, rapid simulations can be run to predict
the effects on the circuit of changing operating
conditions such as water additions, cyclone orifice
sizes, mill speed, ball size, ball load, AG/SAG mill
grate configuration and circuit feed conditions (size
distribution, breakage properties and flowrate).
The results of these simulations include the size
distributions, pulp density and flowrate of all streams
in the circuit and the important equipment operating
variables including crusher and mill power, AG/SAG
mill load and cyclone operating pressure. These
results are available in graphical and tabular form
and are easily copied or exported to Excel or Word
documents.
JKSimMet replaces much of the hard work involved in
testing operating strategies.
