Low intensity Magnetic Separators

In mineral processing plant, Low-intensity magnetic separators have flux densities up to 2,000 gauss. These separators are mainly used to remove ferromagnetic materials, such as iron, to protect downstream unit operations, such as conveyor belts, or to scalp ferromagnetic materials to improve the performance of permanent or electromagnetic separators used to separate weakly magnetic materials. Low-intensity separators can treat wet slurry or dry solids.
Protective Magnets
The device most widely used to protect downstream operations from tramp iron is a magnetic pulley installed in the head of the belt conveyor (Figure1). These devices remove tramp metals from dry solids. They contain either a permanent magnet or an electromagnet. Many types of magnets can be used—for example, plate magnets, cross-belt magnets, cobbing magnets, grate magnets, magnetic humps, and magnetic filters. The arrangement of magnetic drum separators is shown in Figures 2A and 2B.
Wet Magnetic Separators.
 Low-intensity wet magnetic separators have been the workhorse of the iron ore industry for several decades. Iron ore rich in magnetite has traditionally been enriched by these magnets. The coal industry uses these magnets to recover magnetite or ferrosilicon in a media recovery circuit. Several types of separators work on the same principle but have different design features. The common types are counter-rotation drum separators and concurrent-rotation drum separators (Figures 3A and 3B).

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
