On-line bulk material analysis is an important technique for optimizing mineral processing activities. In this webinar we will explain the principles of PFTNA (Pulsed Fast and Thermal Neutron Analysis) and how it is implemented in a CNA bulk elemental analyzer.

We will outline how the CNA analyzer measures the elemental composition of different materials on a conveyor belt, passing through or over the analyzer. Also, the limitations of the technology and steps that can be taken to maximize the accuracy and precision of the analyses will be discussed.

Speakers

Jorge Peralta - Technical Specialist CNA
