矿物工业对澳大利亚经济非常重要，浮选是分离贱金属、非硫化物矿物和煤的重要工艺。 社区的利益将来自矿物加工过程中较低的能源和水消耗。 行业合作伙伴还将受益于提高工艺效率，包括提高回收率和降低成本，以及接触独特的方法，以保持其技术优势，并通过优化其矿物加工业务来显着提高其盈利能力。 该项目将有助于维持伙伴组织的研究基础设施的临界质量。

The minerals industry is of great importance to the Australian economy and flotation is an essential process for the separation of base metals, non-sulphide minerals, and coal. Community benefits will come through lower energy and water consumption in mineral processing. The industry partners will benefit also through increased process efficiencies including increased recovery and lower costs, as well as an exposure to unique methodologies that will maintain their technological edge, and the potential to significantly increase their profitability by optimising their mineral processing operations. This project will contribute to the maintenance of a critical mass of research infrastructure at the partner organisations.
