Tungsten tailings gravity separation equipment

Tungsten tailings are an important metal ore with high tungsten content and significant application value. However, the extraction of tungsten tailings is not easy and requires multiple steps to obtain pure tungsten. Among them, tungsten tailings gravity separation equipment is a very important part, let's take a look below.

1、 Characteristics of tungsten tailings

Tungsten tailings mainly include Wolframite, Scheelite, wolframite, etc. These ores have characteristics such as high hardness, density, and melting point, making them difficult to separate during the beneficiation process. In addition, tungsten tailings also contain a certain amount of iron, copper, lead, zinc and other impurities, which need to be separated by gravity separation equipment.

Role of tungsten tailings gravity separation equipment

Tungsten tailings gravity separation equipment is a mechanical equipment used for separating tungsten tailings. Its function is to separate tungsten minerals from impurities in tungsten tailings, so as to meet the purity requirements. The tungsten tailings gravity separation equipment mainly includes heavy medium separator, cyclone separator, flotation machine, etc.

3、 Usage of tungsten tailings gravity separation equipment

1. Usage of heavy medium sorting machine

The heavy medium separator is a separation equipment based on density difference, which can be used to separate tungsten minerals and impurity minerals in tungsten tailings. When in use, the tungsten tailings are first crushed to a certain particle size, and then placed in a heavy medium separator for separation. During the sorting process, the separation of tungsten minerals and impurity minerals can be achieved by adjusting the medium density and the rotation speed of the sorting machine.

2. Usage of cyclone separator

The cyclone separator is a separation equipment based on centrifugal force, which can be used to separate tungsten minerals and impurity minerals in tungsten tailings. When in use, the tungsten tailings are first crushed to a certain particle size, and then placed in a cyclone separator for separation. During the sorting process, the separation of tungsten minerals and impurity minerals can be achieved by adjusting the rotation speed and flow rate of the cyclone separator.

3. Usage of flotation machine

A flotation machine is a separation equipment based on bubble adsorption, which can be used to separate tungsten minerals and impurity minerals from tungsten tailings. When in use, the tungsten tailings are first crushed to a certain particle size, and then placed in a flotation machine for separation. During the sorting process, gas bubbles are injected into the flotation cell to adsorb tungsten minerals and impurity minerals. Then, the separation of tungsten minerals and impurity minerals is achieved by adjusting the water level and gas bubble production in the flotation cell.

Summary

The tungsten tailings gravity separation equipment is a very important part of the tungsten tailings separation process. By using equipment such as heavy medium sorting machines, cyclone sorting machines, and flotation machines, tungsten minerals and impurity minerals can be effectively separated, achieving the purity requirements of tungsten tailings. When using tungsten tailings gravity separation equipment, it is necessary to select appropriate equipment according to the specific situation and operate according to the usage method to ensure separation effect and equipment life.
