Magnetite is widely used as iron ore due to its high iron content and also employed in 75 coal washing processes [17]. Wang et al. [18] added magnetite aggregates in the mix design to heat up the ...
Magnetite, slurried in water, is used to create an apparent heavy medium in which fine coal ( to mm) is cleaned of its mineral impurities. The magnetite is much finer in size (1 to 44 ..mu..m) than the coal and is usually recovered from the coal and refuse by magnetic drum separators.
The heavymedia separation process, or HMS, employing ferrous media, usually ferrosilicon and/or magnetite, is the most generally used process for sinkfloat separations. A stable medium over the range of specific gravities from to can be maintained within close limits and is cleaned and recovered by magnetic means.
Density of Water = 1000 kg/m 3; 1 m 3 of Water = 1000 kg. Magnetite Density = 5170 kg/m 3. [image 145329] [image 145330] For example, a 400 tph feed to a dense medium process equates to a volumetric flow rate of 1000 gallons/min or m 3 /min. At a 4:1 mediumtocoal ratio, the volume of medium is m 3 /min.
Magnetite is produced as a byproduct of the phosphate mining process of Foskor. At our processing plant in Phalaborwa Idwala Magnetite upgrades this material by magnetic separation and fine milling for supply to the coal industry as a heavy separation medium (for coal washing).
Commercial magnetite often contains significant amounts of α and γFe 2 O 3, in addition to magnetite. As αFe 2 O 3 is nonmagnetic, it is not removed in the magnetic separator and is discharged in the refuse. It is believed that this is the cause for much of the loss of heavy media experienced in the coal cleaning plants.
1. Introduction. Heavy medium coal washing technique can remove gangue, perform deep coal desulfurization and ash reduction, improve the calorific value of coal, and provide conditions for clean and efficient combustion of coal [1], [2], also the coal with deep deashing can be further utilized as material [3].The implementation of heavy medium coal washing technique is based on the density ...

But it was not in the steel making process that the magnetite from Biggenden mine was used. Dutch researchers had discovered the usefulness of magnetite as an agent in the coal washing process as early as 1912. The coal beneficiation processes is where inorganic impurities are separated from raw mined coal thereby enhancing the combustion ...
magnetic separators 1. Introduction Densemedium (magnetite in the case of coal), a slurry/suspension having a relative density intermediate to that of valuable mineral and gangue, is generally used as the medium of separation in most coal preparation plants.
Abstract and Figures. The dense medium cyclone (DMC) process used in coal beneficiation plants is studied from a control system perspective. Employing the dynamic model of the DMC process derived ...
A coal washing circuit is studied for the purpose of better control of the density of medium used in dense medium cyclones to enhance separation efficiency. The process dynamics is mathematically modelled and a controller is designed following model predictive control method. The objective of the control is to adjust the medium density to follow an optimal density profile set by an upper level ...
Coal Cleaning Process Description12,9 Coal cleaning is a process by which impurities such as sulfur, ash, and rock are removed from coal to upgrade its value. Coal cleaning processes are categorized as either physical cleaning or chemical cleaning. Physical coal cleaning processes, the mechanical separation of coal from its
Abstract. Magnetite is widely used in most densemedium processes in the coal industry because of its higher specific gravity, stability in suspension, lower viscosity, and easy availability, recovery and reuse. To keep the suspension at the desired specific gravity and low viscosity, it is necessary to extract ... Read More
The Gassolid Fluidized Bed Coal Beneficiator (GFBCB) is an important technology used in the dry coal beneficiation process, which requires lower bed density and very uniform density distribution. Geldart A − particles, Geldart A magnetite particles "modulated" by a small fraction of Geldart C ultrafine coal particles, is proposed.
Wet beneficiation/coal washing. Currently, the wet coal beneficiation process is the predominant method for coal upgrading. The wet beneficiation processes include heavy media separation, cyclone (water only), froth flotation, and spiral separation [23,24]. The use of these technologies depends on the particle size of the feed and the ...

It was found that the magnetite stuck to the surface moisture of the coal. The use of a highfrequency screen improved recovery of the magnetite from the wet coal samples from % to %. Recovery from the highfrequency screen for both dry and wet magnetite samples was lower than that achieved with a conventional 3 mm screen.
Experiments have been conducted on a 75mm densemedium cyclone treating coal in the size range − + mm using magnetite as the medium under different design and operating conditions. The design variables studied were vortex finder diameter and spigot diameter and the operating variable was the specific gravity of the feed medium.
The output obtained from the supercritical process was a mixture of REY nitrates. Metallothermic reduction processes were then used to extract rare earth elements at high temperatures (>1000 °C) under vacuum conditions using inert gas. The extraction efficiency of different REYs varied between 7% and 99%.
