Using the MagNet software package, a permanent magnetic circuit was simulated and a sectorially-spliced magnetic system was designed. Consequently, a new roller permanent magnetic separator with different magnetic field intensities in each roller was developed. The modular structural design allows fine-grained minerals with different magnetic susceptibility to be separated in one pass, according to their different processing characteristic. Steel slag, selected from a factory, was crushed, ground and sieved into different particle size ranges for the single-factor magnetic separation experiments. It was determined that the optimum value ranges for the particle size, magnetic separation distance and rotating frequency were 0.15 mm-0.3 mm, 10 mm-12 mm, 40 Hz~60Hz, respectively; using the chosen parameter values of 0.2mm, 11mm, and 40Hz, the concentrate recovery and concentrate grade of the new separation technology reached up to 52.78% and 64.74%, in comparisson with the existing technology. Thus, it was demonstrated that the self-developed separation technology has the potential to improve the iron recovery of the fine-grained steel slag.

The relevance of the paper is that dry magnetic separation (DMS) is the main beneficiation method of magnetite ores. The lack of efficient industrial-grade machines and apparatus for separating fine-grained magnetite ores means that DMS is used mainly as a pre-concentration operation for fairly large classes. The aim of the research is to study the possibility of using a new magnetic separator model in the process of dry beneficiation of magnetite ore from the Bapy deposit. This paper presents theoretical and experimental studies of a new model of a magnetic separator. The mathematical modeling of the magnetic separation process of the device was carried out to evaluate the parameters in accordance with which a laboratory separator was subsequently manufactured. For the experimental study of the properties of this magnetic system, a laboratory magnetic separator was built. The possibility of using a new magnetic separator in the process of dry beneficiation of magnetite ore from the Bapy deposit was investigated. The industrial scheme being implemented consists in ore crushing and two stage dressing on dry drum magnetic separators. The study of beneficiation indicators of the magnetic separator was carried out using iron ore of the Bapy deposit, which is mono-mineral magnetite. For the study, mixtures of the minus 0.1 mm class were selected with the iron content α = 50% and α = 40%. As a result of the research, beneficiation indicators were obtained on a laboratory scale. Therefore, the improvement of the beneficiation scheme is reduced to the isolation of a small product and its subsequent beneficiation using a new model of magnetic separator. Thus, the presented magnetic separator is suitable for dry processing of crushed magnetite ore.

This study, focused on the beneficiation of a Nigerian complex chromite ore sourced from Tunga-Kaduka, Anka Local Government of Zamfara State, Nigeria, assaying 45.85% Cr2O4 and 54.15% mineral impurities, was enriched concurrently through sink floatation and magnetic separation techniques. The chromite ore initially analyzed to contain silicate impurities was found not suitable for metallurgical purposes. Thus, enrichment was examined through gravity separation studies using organic liquid with different specific gravities at 2.8, 3.3, and 4.0. The separation of chromite ore with lowest particle size fraction was done using Mozley mineral separator followed by the magnetic separation of the sink product by magnetic separator. The results obtained revealed about 77% of the total material containing 300 μm particle size, 52% ˂ 212 μm and 17% below 75 μm. Subsequent analysis of the beneficiated ore was carried out by wet chemical analysis and atomic absorption spectrophotometer. The results showed that Cr2O4 content increased to 78.34% from initial 45.83% with maximum Cr:Fe ratio of 3.2:1, representing 84.27% of chromium metal present in the ore. The enrichment of Cr2O4 obtained in this study could be found metallurgically applicable in the electro-deposition and ferro-chromium alloy production practices.

On the example of a sample of ferruginous quartzites from the Olenegorskoye deposit, the possibility of preliminary concentration by dry magnetic separation (DMS) has been established. The mineralogical and petrographic studies have shown that, in terms of their textural and structural features and mineral composition, ferruginous quartzites may be divided into two types, differing in the amount of hematite included in their composition, which indicates the possibility of using DMS to generate the following three separation products: magnetite, hematite-magnetite, and rock. DMS with the use of a laboratory drum magnetic separator allowed selecting the upper size limit of 80 mm for lumps entering the separation. At the same time, 24.7 to 26.0 % of all waste and low-mineralized rocks with the mass fraction of Fetot of 4.51 to 6.07 % are transferred to the non-magnetic fraction during the separation of classes of –80+50 and –50+25 mm. For the size class of –25+10 mm, the yield and Fetot values are within the same limits. It has been shown that sulfidecontaining rocks and rocks of increased strength (with the strength coefficient of at least 23) are separated into the non-magnetic fraction. The strength of ferruginous quartzites does not exceed 20. This rock strength ratio confirms improved crushing and grinding efficiency. The possibility of separation of the magnetic fraction with the particle size of –80+25 mm into the following products has been established: the magnetite-hematite product (MF-1 + MF-2) with the mass fractions of Femagn 43.3% and Fehem 14.9 %, and the predominantly hematite product (MF-3 + MF-4) with the mass fractions of Femagn 1.1 % and Fehem 67.9 %.

The magnetic performance of steel slag is special because it has a high content of Fe2O3. In this study, the difference of chemical compositions, mineral compositions, and particle size distributions between the two parts of steel slag by magnetic separation was investigated. The results show that the difference of chemical compositions especially the main oxide contents between the two parts of steel slag by magnetic separation is very small. And the difference of mineral compositions between the two parts of steel slag by magnetic separation is also very small. However, the particle size distributions of the two parts of steel slag by magnetic separation may differ from each other when steel slag contains many coarse particles.

Exhaustion of high-grade magnetite resources and large demand for iron ore in the rapidly developing steel industry promotes the mining enterprises to exploit low-grade magnetite. Low-grade magnetite with a low content of valuable minerals is hard to be separated with the conventional separation process flow because of its high beneficiation costs. By preconcentration technology, enriching valuable minerals and discarding large amounts of gangue as soon as possible before grinding, low beneficiation costs can be achieved in low-grade magnetite’s beneficiation. After continuous researches and production practices and the development of relevant efficient crushing and separating equipments, preconcentration technology has made great progress: from crushing-dry magnetic separation technology to grinding-wet magnetic separation technology, then to ultrafine crushing-wet magnetic separation technology. Now preconcentration has become an indispensable stage in low-grade magnetite’s beneficiation.

In this work, a new desulfurization process of high sulfur coal was designed and examined. The novel process involved pyrolysis of high sulfur coal at low temperature and then a dry magnetic separation. For testing the cleaning coal process, a Chinese high sulfur coal, Baisu coal was pyrolyzed in a fixed bed reactor from 400 to 700°C for 30min, and then separated by a dry magnetic separator. The results showed that under optimum conditions, a remarkable reduction of sulfur content in coal was achieved, and more importantly, almost all pyrite sulfur in coal was removed.

The iron ore sample is processed in laboratory conditions with methods of both dry and wet magnetic separation. The particle size of the processed sample was 1 mm electric power of dry magnetic separation 0.2A-0.6A, and the rotation number of the separation drum was chosen to be 32 per/min. The most suitable procedures to get standardized concentrate are optimized through considering the following facts that the duration of wet magnetic separation is 20, 30, 40, 50 minutes, classification yield is 43.50 %, 55.70%, 72.70%, 85.20% for 0.074 mm crushed particles, and the electric power is 1A-5A of the wet magnetic drum. As a result of this process, the initial Fe concentration of the primary ore has increased from 43.59% to 65.60% and the recovery arose to 96.93%. Therefore, the combination methods of dry and wet iron ore separation are applicable for processing of iron concentrate with higher pureness that meets the requirements of metallurgical industries.

Nowadays, steel industry develops rapidly. However, lots of iron ore needed by China’s steel industry are imported from abroad. China’s dependence on foreign iron ore exceeds 70%. As a result, not only have large amounts of foreign currencies been spent but also a potential threat has been posed to the economic development of our country. Therefore, it is necessary for China to serve its economic production with lots of low grade iron ore. Since traditional beneficiation methods can cause serious environmental problems, High gradient magnetic separation(HGMS) is discussed in this paper. It can recycle tailings when disposing of low grade iron ore as well as solve the environmental problems caused by tailings and arising during the production process. Besides, high gradient magnetic separator can also raise the processing efficiency of low grade iron core. Therefore, high-gradient magnetic separation can not only increase economic returns but also protect ecological environment. With the maturity of super-conduction high gradient magnetic separation technology, super-conducting high gradient magnetic separation will produce better production effects.
