SLon Vertical Ring and Pulsating High Gradient High Intensity Magnetic Separator

 

 

SLon vertical ring and pulsating high gradient magnetic separator (SLon VPHGMS) was invented, manufactured and applied in China. It is now a kind of high intensity magnetic separation equipment for mineral ores with the best performance and the most advanced technology in China and in the world. A fundamental solution to worldwide technical problems of being prone to congestion of magnetic media equipped on both horizontal ring intensity magnetic separators and flat ring high gradient magnetic separators, SLon VPHGMS has a high concentration ratio of the ore, wider adaption of variations of sizes, concentration and grades of ore-feedings, high reliability, and easy operation and maintenance for the ores with weak magnetic properties and low grades to achieve a high grade of concentrates and a high recovery of materials. SLon VPHGMS has been achieved with China National Invention Award, awarded with China national invention patents and innovative product patents. The company in recent years keeps developing a new variety of magnetic separator every 1 to 2 years, industrial scale has been expanded every year, and sales of SLon VPHGMS have been in leading position in China for many years, accounting for more than 90% of China's domestic market shares.  More than 1,100 sets of SLon Magnetic Separators have been utilized in China and worldwide, of which nearly 100 sets have been exported to international markets such as Peru, India, South Africa, Australia, Brazil, Russia, the United States, Canada, Turkey, Iran, Norway, Thailand, Vietnam, South Korea and so on. Right now, 200 sets of SLon VPHGMS can been manufactured each year.

 

 

Basic Principle

 

SLon vertical ring and pulsating high gradient magnetic separator (SLon VPHGMS) utilizes the combined forces of magnetic field, pulsating fluid force and gravity to continuously beneficiate weakly magnetic fine minerals. It is equipped with a unique pulsating mechanism possessing advantages of large beneficiation ratio and high recovery rate, and a matrix of vertical rings that are not easily clogged.

 

 

Application Areas

 

  • Weakly magnetic minerals beneficiation, such as: hematite, limonite, ilmenite, wolframite, tantalum, niobium ore and so on.
  • Removal of iron from and purification of non-metallic minerals, such as: quartz, feldspar, nepheline, fluorite, sillimanite, spodumene, kaolin and so on.

 

 

Features

 

  • Vertically rotating rings and recoiling concentrates. Congestion of magnetic media equipped on both flat ring intensity magnetic separators and flat ring high gradient magnetic separators has been an unresolved technical problem in the world for decades. SLon magnetic separators are equipped with vertical rotation rings. For each set of magnetic medium, the separator washes mineral concentrates in the direction opposite to ore-feeding direction. Coarse particles without having to pass through magnetic media can be washed from the heap, so as to effectively prevente from magnetic media blockage.
  • A pulsating mechanism for the slurry to drive the slurry and result in pulsating fluids. Under the action of pulsating fluid force, mineral particles in the slurry are always in a loose state so as to improve the quality of the magnetic concentrates.
  • Flat ring high gradient magnetic separator imposes a stringent requirement for the ore sizes. With a unique magnetic system structure and optimum combination of magnetic media, SLon VPHGMS can deal with ore sizes up to 2.0 mm. This simplifies site grading operations and is with a wider range of adaptability

  Integrated Recycling Plant of Panzhihua Iron and Steel Group, is mainly dealing with recovery of iron ore and titanium concentrates from the general tailings discharged from Panzhihua Iron and Steel Group. It was originally using a simple gravity processing system involving in spiral chute for the rougher and shaking bed for the cleaner. As the spiral chute and the shaking bed could not recycle fine grades, it had a low recovery rate of titanium. From 2001 to 2002, the Plant had been using 3 sets of SLon-1500 magnetic separators to construct a new titanium separation process. Those machines worked well and created excellent operating conditions for subsequent flotation and gravity process, which realised an annual production capacity of ilmenite, at about 30,000 tons of high-quality grade 47.5%  TiO2, with TiO2 recovery rate reaching more than 4 times as to the original single gravity separation process.

  Taihe Iron Mine of Chongqing Iron and Steel, originally had a system of spiral chute and shaking bed for the rougher of ilmenite before flotation for the cleaner, in a process of recovery of ilmenite from the weakly magnetic tailings, but the recovery rate of titanium was very low, with only 10% of TiO2 recovery. In 2000, the Mine was installed with 4 sets of SLon magnetic separators which were combined with the original flotation process to form a new operation process of differential magnetic separation, re-grinding coarse ore, magnetic separation and flotation beneficiation, effectively  recovering ilmenite with different ore sizes. The new process reached a comprehensive recovery of TiO2 increased to 47% while ensuring the titanium concentrate grade ≥ 47%.

  The company utilised SLon magnetic separator for rougher in its ore processing plant together with shaking bed for cleaner to recover titanium from the tailings dispossed after titanium beneficiation from the vanadium-titanium magnetite. The process indicators are: feeding grade 11.00%, concentrate grade 47.20%, tailings grade 7.20%, TiO2 recovery rate 40.76%, titanium concentrate production up to 33,000 tons per year.

 

 

 

Beneficiation of Manganese Ore

 

Most of China's manganese ores are low grade, so domestic manganese ore market can not meet its demand. A large number of manganese concentrates are imported from abroad every year. How to develop the use of domestic low grade manganese resources is in a top priority. Extensive research, testing and production applications in recent years have fully proved SLon magnetic separator can beneficiate effectively low grade manganese ore, showing the equipment has a good prospect in the manganese ore industry.

SLon magnetic separator has been extensively tested in laboratory and practically applied in processing of manganese ore in China, achieving a good indicator in mineral testing and production. It has indicated that the equipment has great potential for development in processing of low grade manganese ore resources.

 

 

Iron Removal from Non-metallic Minerals

 

With the improved living standards, demanding for quality building materials has been rapidly increased, and non-metallic mineral processing and purification industry has also been growing quickly. In recent years, SLon VPHGMSs are widely used for removal of iron from feldspar, nepheline, quartz, kaolinite containing coal and other processing industries.
