The separation results of the three iron samples are as follows: iron grade 66.77%67.98% and the recovery of iron 69.26% 70.70%by the FIMS process with flocculants. The comparative results show that under the same separation conditions the FIMS process can effectively increase the recovery of iron by 10.97%15.73%. The flowsheet results confirm the reliability of the process in a SHP high intensity magnetic separator. The concentrate product can be used as raw materials for direct reduction iron-smelting. The hydrolyzed and causticized flocculants can selectively flocculate fine feebly-magnetic iron mineral particles to increase their apparent separation sizes. The larger the separation size, the stronger the magnetic force. By comparing the separation results of the three samples it is found that amongthe three samples the higher the limonite content, the better the separation result. This means that the separation result relates closely to the flocculation process and the adding pattern of the flocculant.展开更多

The new machine was applied to the iron removal from potash feldspar. The effects of the magnetic field intensity, pulp density and grinding fineness on the iron removal were investigated. The optimized operation parameters were achieved and listed as follows： the -0.074 mm content is 85%, the pulp density is 45% and the magnetic field strength is 2T. A close test of middles regrinding was also carried out to improve concentrate yield. The data show that the grade of TFe（total iron） in potash feldspar product decreased from 1.31% to 0.21% and the concentrate yield reached 85.32%. All the results indicated that the traditonal high-intensity electromagnetic separators can be betterly substituted by the new permanent magnetic separator. This study may provide the theoretical evidence for iron removal from potash feldspar.展开更多
