Titanium ore gravity separation test

Titanium ore gravity separation test

Titanium ore is an important metal ore widely used in aviation, aerospace, military, chemical, pharmaceutical and other fields. In the extraction process of titanium ore, gravity separation is a very important step, which can effectively improve the grade and recovery rate of the ore. This article will introduce the operating steps and precautions of titanium ore gravity separation test, hoping to be helpful to relevant personnel.

1、 Experimental principle

The principle of the titanium ore gravity separation experiment is to use the difference in specific gravity of minerals in water to separate the minerals through gravity beneficiation. In the experiment, the first step is to crush and screen the ore, dividing it into different particle sizes. Then, the ore sample is placed in a gravity concentrator for gravity beneficiation, and the grade and recovery rate are calculated based on the beneficiation results.

2、 Test steps

1. Preparation of ore samples

Firstly, a certain number of titanium ore samples need to be prepared, crushed and screened into different particle size levels. Usually, a -0.074mm sieve is used for screening, dividing the ore into three levels: coarse, medium, and fine.

2. Debugging of the reselection machine

Place the prepared ore sample into a gravity concentrator for gravity beneficiation. Before conducting the experiment, it is necessary to debug the gravity separator, including adjusting parameters such as water flow rate, slope, and amplitude, to ensure the accuracy and repeatability of the experiment.

3. Test operation

Place the prepared ore sample into the gravity separator, turn on the water pump, adjust the water flow rate to reach the appropriate flow rate. Then adjust the slope and amplitude of the gravity separator to ensure that the specific gravity difference of ore in water can be fully utilized. During the experiment, it is necessary to continuously observe the settlement of the ore and adjust the parameters in a timely manner to ensure the accuracy of the test results.

4. Analysis of test results

After the experiment is completed, it is necessary to analyze the experimental results, including calculating indicators such as grade and recovery rate. Based on the experimental results, the optimal gravity separation parameters can be determined to improve the grade and recovery rate of titanium ore.

3、 Precautions

1. The preparation of ore samples should be strictly carried out in accordance with the requirements to ensure the accuracy of the test results.

2. The debugging of the reselection machine should be carried out before the test to ensure the repeatability of the test.

During the experiment, it is necessary to continuously observe the settlement of the ore and adjust the parameters in a timely manner to ensure the accuracy of the test results.

4. After the experiment is completed, the test results should be analyzed to determine the optimal gravity parameters to improve the grade and recovery rate of titanium ore.

In summary, the titanium ore gravity separation test is an important method to improve the grade and recovery rate of titanium ore, and it is necessary to strictly follow the operating steps to ensure the accuracy of the test results. I hope this article is helpful to relevant personnel.
