Maximising operational efficiency and cost-effectiveness within the steel manufacturing sector necessitates meticulous control over silica content during the froth flotation process. However, the accurate determination of silica levels presents a formidable hurdle, exerting considerable influence on production expenditures and overarching operational frameworks. Real-time forecasting of silica concentration in output streams emerges as a critical imperative, facilitating timely corrective interventions and enabling operators to fine-tune operational parameters promptly.
