Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of ore pulp element grade analysis, and more particularly to a method for judging whether element grade prediction results are abnormal based on LIBS. BACKGROUND

[0002] At present, ore pulp element grade analysis is mostly offline analysis, that is, manually intercepting shift samples at designated sampling points, and then obtaining ore pulp element grade through chemical titration or X-ray fluorescence spectrum analysis after a series of pretreatment processes such as laboratory filtration, drying and sample preparation. The entire analysis process takes about one hour, and if the number of shift samples is large, the analysis time will be longer, which leads to serious lag in obtaining ore pulp element grade, and has no real-time guiding significance for the adjustment of the front-end flotation process and the addition of flotation reagents, resulting in poor stability of concentrate product quality in the production process, and causing great impact on production cost and product quality of the enterprise.

[0003] Laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) is a kind of plasma emission spectrum analysis technology, which has the advantages of simultaneous measurement of multiple elements, simple sample pretreatment, fast analysis speed, and small sample damage, and is very suitable for full-element detection. At present, this technology has been researched and applied in the fields of mineral industry process monitoring, agriculture, food, environment and medical treatment.

[0004] One of the difficulties in analyzing ore pulp element grade by using LIBS technology is that the intensity and stability of LIBS spectrum signal are easily affected by the water content in ore pulp, which further affects the accuracy of ore pulp element grade analysis.

[0005] Therefore, how to provide a method for automatically, quickly and accurately judging whether element grade prediction results are abnormal is a problem that those skilled in the art need to solve. SUMMARY
