Solvent Extraction - Hatch

Ore grades are declining, pulling product liquor solution (PLS) grades lower, too. Higher flows must be pushed through solvent extraction to maintain production levels at the plant. This can increase entrainment problems. And, extraction loading limitations being what they are, it still may not be possible to reach the throughput you're after.
