Eriez has added its newest product, the new Hybrid Wet Drum Separator, which it said has been designed to enhance magnetic recovery in heavy media circuits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The hybrid element uses ceramic and high-energy rare earth magnets in the circuit to deliver 60% higher gauss in the separating zone when compared to the industry standard 950-gauss interpole magnetic circuit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Coupled with a self-leveling tank, the drum maintains the current layout of a standard wet drum and is identical to the widely known 950-gauss wet drum separator. Also, upgrading existing 36- and 48-inch diameter wet drums to the Hybrid Wet Drum Separator is easily accomplished, as the 950 interpole wet drum can be retrofitted without existing tank or drive alterations. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cField results in iron ore concentration prove the superiority of these state-of-the-art separators,\u201d said Eriez Director of Minerals and Materials Processing Jose Marin.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
\u201cIn fact, the increased recovery of magnetite in the rougher stage at an iron ore concentrator prompted the replacement of more than 20 48-inch diameter rougher units.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Approximately two-thirds of the magnetic element in the Hybrid Wet Drum Separator is constructed with rare earth magnets, the company said. The remainder consists of a transition section onto a ceramic element with an advanced design that allows the stronger drums to properly discharge magnetite or ferro-silicon onto the concentrate launder without flow interference.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The high-capacity design also accommodates surges and fluctuations in the feed rate.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Optimizing the recovery of magnetite in the heavy media circuit, Marin said, requires properly sized self-leveling wet drum separators with agitating magnetic elements, including the addition of a hybrid element.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cThe alternating polarity of agitating elements assists in releasing entrapped non-magnetic materials to attain maximum recovery and profitability,\u201d he said. \u201cThe typical recovery of magnetite in a heavy media plant using traditional technology is expected at +99.%, while the anticipated recovery utilizing a Hybrid Wet Drum Separator is close to 99.99%.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
