Solving the problem of controlling the sticking of iron ore concentrate and raw materials on the working surfaces of the technological equipment of the pelletizing plant of JSC Mikhailovsky Mining and Processing Plant named after. A.V. Varichev”

The experience of operating mining and technological equipment at enterprises of the main branches of the national economy of Russia and the CIS states indicates that when working on moistened sticky rocks and raw materials, the throughput of units and the productivity of the equipment as a whole drops sharply and as well as the number of unscheduled downtime associated with the need to clear work surfaces from adhering masses of materials is increasing. Using the example of the pelletizing factory of JSC Mikhailovsky GOK named after A.V. Varichev, the solution to the problem of сontrolling the sticking of iron ore concentrate and raw materials on the working surfaces of technological equipment is shown by using a long-term (more than 20 years) highly effective method for the use of polymer anti-sticking lining plates of PPFP-Astika brands. It is noted that all PPFP-Astiki products manufactured by As-Tik KP LLC are certified and comply with the requirements of the regulatory document TU 2246-001-22711279–2008. The positive experience of the pelletizing plant of the combine in controlling the sticking of moistened raw materials on the working surfaces of technological equipment is recommended for wide implementation both at related enterprises and at other mining and processing enterprises.
