Pore Connectivity and Dewatering Mechanism of Tailings Bed in Raking Deep-Cone Thickener Process

Paste and thickened tailings (PTT) technology can improve the utilization and management of tailings from processing plants. The pore size distribution (PSD) and microstructure evolution affected by the rake shear in thickening tailings beds are essential to produce a high-density tailings underflow...
