FLS powers sustainable mining with MissionZero innovations

5th September 2025

     

Font size: - +

Flowsheet technology and service provider FLS’s MissionZero strategy drives innovation to enhance mining sustainability by reducing emissions, energy use and water consumption while boosting operational performance. With over 50% of its research and development budget dedicated to sustainability-focused technologies, FLS supports the growing demand for critical minerals like copper, vital to decarbonising global economies.

Key technologies include the Eccentric Roll Crusher (ERC®), which reduces energy consumption by up to 40% while increasing throughput by as much as 20%. Its integrated grizzly and crusher design, along with a high reduction ratio of 1:6, ensures both efficiency and productivity.

FLS has also advanced its High Pressure Grinding Roll (HPGR) solutions with the HPGR Pro, featuring innovative rotating side plates that enhance material feeding and uniform wear distribution. This innovation improves throughput and reduces concentrated wear, cutting energy consumption further and extending equipment lifespan.

In flotation, FLS’s coarseAIR™ Flotation Cell technology enables the recovery of coarser particles. This improves mineral recovery and allows for coarser grinding within the circuit. The REFLUX Classifier®, REFLUX™ Flotation Cell, and coarseAIR™ Flotation Cell empower miners to achieve increased plant throughput and obtain their ESG goals for energy, water and tailings management. 

By continuously developing cutting-edge technologies, FLS aligns its MissionZero initiative with mining operations’ sustainability and zero emissions goals. These efforts ensure the industry can meet growing production demands for critical minerals while minimising environmental impact, paving the way for a more sustainable future.
