Quartz Winning out of a Flint Mix via Optical Sorting
Nowadays the optical sorting of industrial minerals is one of the most important processing methods which has costefficient production possibilities. This method is used for industrial and raw materials that have different colour and brightness features. Initially this technology is used for sorting of foodstuffs and recovered glass, but for a long time also as physical mineral processing method for both industrial minerals like: limestone, marble, talc, basalt, flint, quartz and secondary raw materials like: building rabble, refractory materials, glass, plastic and household waste.In this study via optical sorting the separation of quartz out of a flint mix, which consists of the particles with different colors and brightness, is aimed. Experiments are performed on an optical sorting machine named CombiSense(R) 1200 at the institute of Aufbereitung mineralischer Rohstoffe RWTH Aachen. This automatic picking device was developed by the company Separation Systems Engineering (SSE), Wedel. Hand picking method is used for product analysis and the efficiency tables are prepared on every step accordingly. This process enables to reach quartz products with purity up to 100%.
