DENSE MEDIA SEPARATION

In suitable cases, dense-media separation can sort a wide size-range of ore cheaply. The tonnage of suitable feed must be sufficient to justify the cost of installing a plant. Easily movable plants can be rented. They are used to treat old dumps, upgrading their contents to a value which justifies ...

The dry dense medium separation of iron ore based on floating and sinking of ore particles in a gas-solid fluidized bed was investigated using zircon sand as the fluidized medium. The float-sink of ore particles with mean size D ave = 23.6 mm was investigated as the fluidizing air velocity and the float-sink time were varied.

Dense Media Separation

Dense Media Separation (DMS), also known as Heavy Media Separation, is a technique used to separate particles based on their density. DMS is commonly used to pre-concentrate lithium ores, iron ore, and diamonds and to "wash" coals. The primary principle of DMS involves introducing the feed material into a medium with a density different to …
