Wet Magnetic Separator For Iron Ore

Iron beneficiation is complex process. There are techniques involved in the whole process such as milling (crushing and grinding); washing; filtration; sorting; sizing; gravity concentration; magnetic separation; flotation; and agglomeration (pelletizing, sintering, briquetting, or nodulizing) etc.

Iron ore magnetic separator is the mainly used iron beneficiation technic due to the magnetic properties of iron ore. As a world leading supplier and manufacturer of crushing, grinding and beneficiation equipment, Zenith provide complete series of iron processing equipment and separation machine for sale.

iron ore magnetic separation operation

Magnetic separation is most commonly used to separate natural magnetic iron ore (magnetite) from a variety of less-magnetic or nonmagnetic material. Today, magnetic separation techniques are used to beneficiate over 90 percent of all domestic iron ore. Between 20 and 35 percent of all the iron units being beneficiated in the United States today are lost to tailings because hematite is only weakly magnetic. According to the Bureau of Mines, techniques used-to-date to try to recover the hematite have proven uneconomic.

The magnetic separation process is complicated in many respects because of the diverse magnetic susceptibility of the different ores, the quantity of middlings, as well as the particle size distribution of the processed ore.

The magnetic force engaged on a specific particle is determined by these factors along with other properties for example magnetic flux and magnetic field gradient that are produced by the magnetic system in the separator. The product of field time's gradient, also known as the magnetic force index, varies between various magnetic system designs and is an aspect when choosing the most appropriate magnetic system for a certain process.
