Abstract

Evaluation of the use of the SIBX addition point and energy consumption in a flotation machine is an optimization effort to increase recovery in a valuable mineral separation process. The purpose of this study was to maximize the use of reagents and energy consumption in flotation machines by looking for the effect of the SIBX addition point and impeller speed variations on copper recovery. In the experiments, the authors vary the impeller speed and the SIBX addition points. The impeller speed is varied into five different speeds. While the SIBX addition point into four different points. From the variation of the experiment, the test must be done within 20 flotation kinetics. Those tests were performed for 8 minutes and will generate 4 concentrates and tailings. From this information, a graph of the relationship between recovery and time is obtained, and it can be seen that the point of adding SIBX and impeller speed is to produce optimal recovery values. From the available tailings and feed, an analysis of particle size and distribution is also carried out to check the effectiveness of changing the impeller speed pattern to provide kinetic energy for particles of various sizes to collide with air bubbles and increase the probability of collection of valuable minerals, so that high recovery is obtained in various areas. particle size. Of all the speed variations used in the impeller, the best kinetic recovery comes from the addition of SBX in the 0 min, 2 min, and 4 min. While the worst comes from the addition in the 6 min. Copper kinetic recovery is only affected by the nature and amount of hydrophobic particles but is not affected by impeller speed. Copper recovery at each end of the experiment showed the same value which is an average of about 94%.

Abstract

Indonesia’s growing coal production has increased pressure on port logistics, particularly tugboat operations that are vital for barge maneuvering. PT PIT, the sole tug service provider for PTBA, currently operates with only two tugboats, resulting in limited capacity and increasing delays in coal shipments. This study aims to develop a decision support framework to optimize tugboat capacity expansion at PT PIT’s dual-port operations (Kertapati and Kramasan). A mixed methods approach is employed, combining quantitative modeling (queuing theory, financial feasibility, and project scheduling) with qualitative insights from stakeholder discussions. The analysis finds that expanding the fleet from two to four tugboats raises daily barge throughput from three to nearly ten, improves turnaround times, and increases PT PIT’s annual net revenue by approximately IDR 19.9 billion. Three procurement alternatives new purchase, operational lease, and financial lease are evaluated using the Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP), with operational leasing emerging as the most viable due to its flexibility and lower risk. Risk assessment, following ISO 31000:2018 guidelines, identifies 15 critical risks, including capacity shortfalls and mechanical failures, with mitigation strategies proposed. The project is scheduled using PERT and Gantt methods, providing a roadmap for implementation by 2026. This integrated framework supports scalable, cost-efficient, and risk-mitigated logistics performance to meet Indonesia’s rising coal export demands.
