The copper-processing plant “Almalyk Mining and Metallurgical Complex” is the basic object of mineral raw materials processing. Raw materials are delivered from the “Kalkamir” mine and “Saru-Cheku” mine. The plant also processes the coppe-processing plant slags by flotation and gravitational approaches with obtaining the copper and molybdenium concentrates. The most power-intensive redivisions of the plant are bucking, breaking, flotation and tailing sector. According to the significant influence of the consumption of electric power and other energy resources on the production price, there were held the researchings, which were directed on the development of the scientifically based standards of their costs. This operation is need to the definition and realization of engineering and technological and organizational measures on energy intensity decreasing of the basic production processes.
During the researchings, there were used the modern measuring means, which are placed on the introductions of consumers: crushers, mills, flotation machines, conveyors, bolting machines, ventilators, pumps, etc. The accounting, analytical, experimental and statistic methods were used during the development of rate of electric power application.
The basic directions and arrangements on reducing the energy intencity of the basic technology were chosen and recommended due to the comparison of normative and actual values of the specific energy consumption.
