Emerson: The Smarter Way to Manage Mining Tailings Risks and Improve Sustainability Performance #395
Tailings have traditionally been viewed as the end of the mining process, but many operations are beginning to rethink what remains after processing. Alongside the importance of safe tailings management, growing attention is being placed on water recovery, process efficiency, and the potential to capture additional value from material that would otherwise be considered waste.
In this Mining NOW episode recorded at CIM CONNECT, host Jerrod Downey speaks with Victor Mwaba, Manager of Metals & Mining at Emerson, and James Green, Business Development Manager at Emerson, about how modern instrumentation and automation are changing the way mining companies manage tailings facilities.
The discussion explores how real-time monitoring, advanced measurement technologies, automation, and process control can improve visibility across tailings operations. Topics include optimizing thickener performance, increasing water recovery, strengthening tailings facility monitoring, and using better operational data to support safer and more efficient decision-making.
The conversation also examines how improved measurement and control can help mining companies identify opportunities to recover additional value from mineral waste while supporting environmental and regulatory objectives. As expectations around tailings stewardship continue to evolve, digital technologies are becoming an increasingly important part of balancing safety, sustainability, and operational performance.
Watch the full Mining NOW episode to learn how Emerson is helping mining companies rethink tailings management through advanced instrumentation, real-time monitoring, and improved process control.
