    Solids Flow Essentials module: flow pattern design notes for plant engineers

    Solids Flow Essentials module: flow pattern design notes for plant engineers

    First reported on Australian Mining

    30 Second Briefing

    Jenike & Johanson has launched the second module in its Solids Flow Essentials microlearning series, focused on flow patterns in bins, hoppers and chutes for process and plant engineers. The Flow Patterns module covers mass flow versus funnel flow behaviour, common failure modes such as arching and ratholing, and the impact of wall friction and hopper angle on discharge. The short-format training is aimed at engineers responsible for designing or troubleshooting bulk solids handling systems in mines and processing plants, where poor flow can choke crushers, feeders and transfer points.

    Technical Brief

    • Content is tailored for process, plant and safety engineers working with bulk solids handling equipment.
    • Focus is on practical troubleshooting steps that can be applied without immediate capital modifications.

    Our Take

    Jenike & Johanson’s Solids Flow Essentials sits within a relatively small cluster of 37 Software stories in our database, signalling that formalised digital or structured training tools for bulk solids handling are still niche compared with hardware-focused coverage in Australian Mining.

    Linking solids flow training to the Safety tag matches a wider pattern in our coverage where software and microlearning tools are increasingly framed as controls for process risk, rather than as optional professional development for engineers on projects.

    AASB S2 climate reporting: Envago implementation notes for mine operators

    Greenbase’s Envago platform is being deployed to help mining companies comply with Australia’s new mandatory climate reporting regime under AASB S2, which requires disclosure of climate-related risks, Scope 1–3 emissions and governance alongside financial statements. Envago replaces spreadsheet-based workflows by integrating data from site operations, energy meters and procurement systems into a single emissions and ESG reporting environment. For mine operators, this means earlier alignment with AASB S2 assurance expectations and reduced manual reconciliation effort across multiple assets and joint ventures.

    Micromine 2026 release: integrated workflows and data notes for mine engineers

    Micromine has launched its 2026 Half-Year Release, rolling out upgrades across all eight products in its geology, mine design, scheduling, fleet management and processing software suite as part of a Weir-backed push for a connected mining ecosystem. The release tightens integration between exploration tools such as Micromine Origin and mine planning modules like Micromine Beyond, and links them more directly with operational platforms including Micromine Pitram. For engineers, the move signals more consistent data models and workflows from resource modelling through short-interval control and plant performance monitoring.

    Viridien Evergreen Data Solution: subsurface data workflows explained for mine planners

    Viridien has launched Evergreen Data Solution, an AI‑powered subsurface data platform that automates transformation of large, complex geoscience datasets so asset teams can access and trust results more quickly. Built on Viridien’s existing digital transformation stack, it applies data science workflows to seismic, geological and petrophysical data, targeting shorter interpretation cycle times from exploration through development planning. For mine planners and resource geologists, the tool aims to tighten model update loops, standardise multi‑source inputs and reduce manual data conditioning effort.
