Using Dry Magnetic Separation to Enhance a Recovery of Iron
Baotou Baiyunerbo Mines Location in Inner Mongolia is a famous deposit of iron mineral and rare earth mineral accreting.The iron ore has very complicated ingredients and minerals composing.In the mine,there is not only magnetite ore but also hematite ore,so that it is impossible for high grade iron concentrate to adopt single wet low-intensity magnetic separation or high-intensity magnetic separation to concentrate iron mineral.Because of mixing the magnetite with hematite mineral in feed ore,recovery of iron of magnetite production system in the mineral processing plant is less than other mineral processing plants.Therefore,the research for increasing recovery of iron of the magnetite production system in the plant was undertaken.The paper presented the research for using dry magnetic separation to increase recovery of iron concentrate of the magnetite production system in the plant.It mainly includes dry magnetic separation test and wet magnetic separation and reverse flotation test.The test results indicated that dry magnetic separation is a important way to improve the feature of feed ore of the magnetite production system and to increase the recovery of iron.The recovery of iron may increase from about 70% to over 80%.The research also presented optimum operation parameters of the dry magnetic separator and the separation flowsheet.In conclusion,using dry magnetic separation to treat with feed ore of the magnetite production system in the plant to increase the recovery of iron is a feasible technique.The research present a new way for the mineral processing plant to made technology innovate to increase the recovery of iron concentrate of the plant in future.
