Low-grade iron ore mined from the earth is usually composed of several minerals, desirable and undesirable. Magnetic separation means applying a magnetic field of appropriate intensity, gradient, and other conditions to separate different minerals according to their differences in magnetic susceptibility. 9.3.
Used in combination, and alongside magnetic separators, the Eddy Current Separator and ElectroStatic Separator enable the recovery of a high proportion of the metallic (ferrous and non-ferrous) materials from any waste. In practice, the Eddy Current Separator is ideally suited for recovering or separating non-ferrous metals above 3mm.
Separation occurs by induced an electrostatic charge into a conductive dry-liberated particle. Electrostatic separators are commonly used in conjunction with high-intensity magnetic separators. The electrostatic technology is successfully used in the mineral processing, plastics and recycling industries, although there is a continual expansion ...

To discover the influence of separation technologies for PCBs on the preparation, characterization and application of pyrolytic carbon, two kinds of nonmetal ...
7 Electrostatic Separation Electrostatic-separation utilizes the difference in electrical conductivity between the various minerals in a feed material to produce differential movement in the mineral grains, and although it is applied as a concentrating process to only a small number of minerals, it has proven to be highly successful with these.
However, based on the mineral concentration effectiveness, as well as the metal extraction efficiency, several challenges have been encountered in their recovery and separation from associated impurities. On this premise, this brief review is focused on investigating magnetic separation process applications in the beneficiation/recovery of …
Abstract. The scientific understanding of the nature of magnetic force appears to have started early in this century with the work of Langevin, in France. He explained diamagnetism and paramagnetism in terms of orbiting electrons. Another French physicist, Pierre Weiss, followed closely with a qualitative hypothesis for ferro-magnetic behaviour.

Electrostatic separation is done by initially charging the particulates or contaminants and then moving and concentrating them at the electric field boundary. Electrical separation was first demonstrated by Hohlfield in 1824 by clearing a smoked-filled jar with an electrified point. In 1884, Oliver Lodge attempted to collect lead fume …

The key advantage of electrostatic separation is its ability to separate non-magnetic materials with high precision. Moreover, it is an environment-friendly method, as it does not use harmful chemicals. However, it has its limitations. Its efficiency can be impacted by factors such as particle size, humidity, and material characteristics.
