Real-time process optimization in the production of fertilizers
Lyncis has a wide experience in providing industrial online LIBS analyzers for producers of Phosphate and Potash fertilizers and helping them to save on production costs and ensure the quality of final products in accordance with the contract specifications. Depending on the type of fertilizer, our analyzers can be successfully used for multi-elemental analysis (for example, MgO, Fe2O3, Al2O3, CaO, P2O5, BPL, etc. in phosphates and KCl, NaCl, insolubles in potash) at various stages of production (feed, concentrate, final product) and applications (conveyor belts and pipes). Continuous impurity control and their early removal are of great importance in the processing of phosphate and potash minerals as this leads to cost-effective production with significantly reduced consumption of water, energy, reagents. Our level of expertise and competence in potash and phosphate applications will enable us to provide you with a cost-effective and reliable solution for safe and accurate online measurements.

Examples of installation
• Online elemental analysis and rejection of waste rocks at earlier stages (online measurement of MgO, Fe2O3, Al2O3,CaO, P2O5, BPL, etc. in phosphates and KCl, NaCl, insolubles in potash)
• Brine quality control
• Adding of water and flotation reagents based on continuous quality monitoring of material streams without waiting for time-consuming laboratory analysis
• Quality control of final product (potash standard and granular product, phosphate fertilizers, etc.) to meet the contract specifications.
