Sand tungsten ore is an important metal ore mainly used for manufacturing tungsten steel, alloys, etc. However, during the mining and processing of tungsten ore, a large amount of waste residue and tailings are generated, causing serious environmental pollution. Therefore, the gravity separation process of tungsten ore is particularly important. This article will introduce the operating steps and precautions of the tungsten ore gravity separation equipment.
1、 Types of gravity separation equipment for tungsten ore
At present, the main equipment for tungsten ore gravity separation includes gravity separators, spiral separators, centrifugal separators, etc. Among them, the gravity separator is one of the most commonly used equipment, which can separate useful and useless minerals from tungsten ore, improve the grade and recovery rate of the ore. Spiral sorting machines and centrifugal sorting machines are suitable for sorting coarse and fine particles.
2、 Operation steps of tungsten ore gravity separation equipment
1. Preparation work
Before conducting tungsten ore gravity separation, it is necessary to inspect and maintain the equipment to ensure that it is in normal working condition. At the same time, it is also necessary to prepare materials such as ore, water, and chemicals, as well as corresponding tools and safety equipment.
2. Ore crushing
Feed the ore into a crusher for crushing to achieve appropriate particle size. The crushed ore is screened and the ore that meets the requirements is fed into the gravity separation equipment.
3. Reselection
Feed the ore into the gravity separator for gravity separation. The working principle of a gravity separator is to divide the ore into two parts: useful minerals and useless minerals based on the density, color, shape, and other characteristics of different minerals in the ore. During the re selection process, reagents need to be added to improve the recovery rate of useful minerals.
4. Sorting
Feed the re sorted ore into a spiral or centrifugal separator for sorting. The working principle of these devices is to divide the ore into different particle sizes and densities based on the characteristics of ore particle size and density. The sorted ore can be directly used for production or further processing.
3、 Precautions for gravity separation equipment of tungsten ore
When operating the tungsten ore gravity separation equipment, it is necessary to pay attention to safety. Operators should wear safety equipment and follow operating procedures to avoid accidents.
Before conducting gravity separation of tungsten ore, it is necessary to analyze the ore to understand which minerals are present in the ore, in order to select appropriate gravity separation equipment and reagents.
3. When using the medication, it is necessary to add it according to the prescribed dosage, and it should not be excessive or insufficient.
4. When conducting gravity separation and sorting, it is necessary to select appropriate equipment and process flow based on the properties and requirements of the ore, in order to improve the grade and recovery rate of the ore.
In short, the tungsten ore gravity separation equipment is one of the indispensable equipment in the processing of tungsten ore. When operating sand tungsten ore gravity separation equipment, it is necessary to pay attention to safety, choose appropriate equipment and reagents, and follow operating procedures to improve the grade and recovery rate of the ore, and reduce environmental pollution.
