Type: Course
Date: 3 – 13 June
Location: Espoo, Finland
Language: EN
Nine different courses are available. We recommend everyone to start with the HSC Basic & Equilibrium as well as HSC Sim Basics courses, since this information is needed in the more advanced Mineral processing, Hydrometallurgy, and Pyrometallurgy courses. It is also possible to participate on the courses online via Teams; however, we highly recommend participating onsite to maximize the learning.

List of HSC Chemistry Public Courses 2024:
HSC Basic & Equilibrium, June 3, 2024, Antti Roine & Petri Kobylin
HSC Basic course focuses on general information, which is needed to specify a practical problem in the 23 calculation modules, run the calculations, and analyze the results. Participants will learn what can be done with the HSC package and some ideas on what cannot be done. These skills are also needed in the more advanced HSC Sim Hydro, Sim Pyro, and Sim Mineral Processing courses.
HSC Sim Basics, June 4, 2024, Matti Hietala & Tuukka Kotiranta
This course gives an overview of the basic HSC operation principles and the major procedures needed to solve more complicated problems with the HSC software. The course will also illustrate thermochemistry application possibilities in practical problems.
HSC Sim Pyro, June 5 - 6, 2024, Matti Hietala & Jonna Piironen
This course focuses on HSC Sim distribution mode applications. Typically, these are used to simulate pyrometallurgical processes, but they may also be applied in many other areas.
HSC Sim Hydro, June 5 - 6, 2024, Tuukka Kotiranta
This course focuses on HSC Sim reaction mode applications. Typically, these are used to simulate hydrometallurgical processes, but they may also be applied in many other areas.
HSC Sim Pyro & Hydro Dynamic, June 7, 2023, Matti Hietala, Tuukka Kotiranta & Cesar Araujo
This course focuses on HSC Sim distribution mode applications in the dynamic mode.
HSC Sim Mineral Processing Basic, June 10 - 11, 2024, Caroline Izart & Antti Remes
The course focuses on HSC Sim Particles mode applications. Typically, these are used in minerals processing simulations, but they may also be applied in many other areas, e.g. recycling.
HSC Sim Mineral Processing Advanced, June 12 – 13, 2024, Caroline Izart & Antti Remes
The Advanced Course for Mineral Processing studies HSC Sim Particle mode application more deeply covering data reconciliation with HSC Mass Balance and model fitting of flotation data with HSC Sim Model Fit.
HSC Geo & Liberations, June 13, 2024, Jussi Liipo
Geometallurgy requires a practical, fast, and inexpensive method to quantify mineral compositions. This is possible using the HSC Geo module in HSC.
Sustainable Processes with HSC Process Models, June 13, 2024, Jonna Piironen
The mining, minerals and base metals industry has a significant impact on the environment. Sustainable Processes with HSC Process Models course studies how environmental footprints of processes can be calculated via the LCA principle on the HSC Sim.
Registration needs to be done latest by May 20, 2024.
