Centrifugal separators

Sinonine think that centrifugal separator is an important gravity equipment in beneficiation plant. Heavy medium cyclone is a centrifugal separator similar to the conventional hydrocyclone in principle of operation. It provides a high centrifugal force and a low viscosity of the medium. Much finer separations are achieved in Heavy medium cyclone than in gravity separators. The ore or coal is suspended in a very fine medium of ferrosilicon or magnetite, and is fed tangentially to the Heavy medium cyclone under pressure.
The sink product leaves the cyclone at the apex and the float product is discharged through the vortex finder. These cyclones are commonly installed with axes at 10–15° to the horizontal, thereby enabling the unit to be fed at comparatively low inlet pressure, preferably from a steady head tank. Heavy medium cyclones are widely used for beneficiation of coal in the size range of 13–0.5 mm in coal washeries.

By giving a special shape to the cone, and to the cylindrical part of the cyclone, it is possible to affect separation without using heavy medium. Such a cyclone is known as water-only cyclone or water washing cyclone. Vorsyl separator, LARCODEMS, Dyna Whirlpool and Tri-Flo separator are some other centrifugal separators.

Chance cone separator.

Mineral froth flotation

图片
Sinonine deeply know that in a beaker of water, if air is introduced from the bottom, air bubbles are produced  and rise to the surface of the water as the density of an air bubble is much less than that of water (Figure.1 A). Similarly air bubbles also rise if air is introduced in a pulp containing mineral particles. If a mineral particle of high density adheres to the air bubble, the air bubble along with the mineral particle rises to the surface because the apparent density of the air bubble and the adhered mineral particle is less than that of water. If many mineral particles are adhered to the air bubble, still the air bubble rises to the surface as the apparent density of the air bubble and adhered mineral particles is less than that of water due to the relatively large volume of the air bubble Figure 1 B). This concept is the basis for froth flotation operation. To use this concept or phenomenon, the following are required: 1 Method to make the mineral particles adhere to

METALLURGICAL EFFICIENCY

图片
One of the most important and basic concepts in beneficiation plant is metallurgical efficiency. Two  terms are commonly used to describe the efficiency of metallurgical processes: recovery and grade . These phenomena are illustrated in the generalized process presented in Figure 1. In above example, 100 tph of ore are being fed into a concentration operation that produces 4.5 tph of concentrate and 95.5 tph of tailings. In upgrading this process, then, 1.0 tph of the desired material, A, is introduced into the unit operation and 0.9 tph (4.5 × 0.2) of this material reports to the concentrate, resulting in 90% recovery (0.9/1.0 × 100). The grade of the mineral, A, has been improved from 1% to 20%. The term percent recovery refers to the percentage of the valuable material reporting to the concentrate with reference to the amount of this material in the feed. Note that obtaining the highest possible recovery is not necessarily the best approach in a concentration process. High rec

How to extract silica sand from kaolin tailings?

图片
This paper describes in detail the method of extracting silica sand from sandy kaolin tailings, which can make full use of tailings and improve the application value of kaolin tailings. Its silica sand concentrate fully meets the requirements of glass quartz sand index. Kaolin and its tailings Kaolin is an important non-metallic mineral material. It is not only a necessary raw material for building materials, light industry and other traditional industries, but also a basic material for the development of modern industry. Kaolin mineral resources are continuously exploited and utilized, and a large number of tailings will be produced in the process of mining and processing of kaolin, and the number of tailings will increase year by year. The continuous accumulation of tailings occupies a large amount of land, which affects the ecological environment and also causes the waste of mineral resources. The treatment methods of Kaolin Tailings mainly include: building t
