Abstract

The application of on-line analysis techniques in the mineral industry allows rapid and accurate analyses to be provided in real time for improved control of processes. The Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organization (CSIRO) Division of Mineral and Process Engineering has developed a number of on-line analysis systems based on neutron techniques for use in the Australian minerals industry. This paper describes the development of neutron-induced gamma-ray techniques in two different industrial applications, namely, the on-line analysis of low rank coal and the on-line measurement of pre-reduction degree in iron ores.
