Magnetic Separator chinakssb.com

In mineral processing, a magnetic drum separator, also known as a drum magnet, separates non-magnetic material from magnetic material by using magnetic differences.

Magnetic drum separator applications
• Iron ore: In iron ore beneficiation, the magnetic particles, such as magnetite or hematite, are absorbed to the drum and carried along with it. Meanwhile, non-magnetic particles continue their trajectory and are discharged separately.

• Industrial minerals: Dry drum magnetic separators remove magnetic impurities from industrial minerals like feldspar, quartz, and mica, improving the purity and quality of the minerals, so they are more suitable for industrial applications.

• Coal processing: Magnetic impurities from coal are removed via magnetic separators, improving the purity and quality of the coal.

• Sand beneficiation: Magnetic minerals such as ilmenite, rutile, zircon and garnet in heavy mineral sands are collected by magnetic separators as magnetic concentrate.
