All About Magnetic Separators

Magnetic Separation is the process that involves use of high gradient magnetic fields for the separation of magnetic particles from a non-magnetic medium. This process is carried out with the help of a large size magnet, which exerts magnetic force.  Magnetic Separators are widely used in metallurgical processes. Besides, there are varied other applications of Magnetic Separators in different industries.  

Working Of Magnetic Separators
Magnets create magnetic field, which is essential for the separation of Magnetic materials from the mixture. The working of Magnetic Separators in based on this principle. There is a huge size drum, which rotates and generates magnetic field. The magnetic material enters the separator and the non- magnetic materials fall on the mesh. There are some sensitive particles, which are stuck on the sides of the drum. Working of Magnetic Separators is as simple as this.

Uses Of Magnetic Separators
  • Removal of Magnetic Contaminants in Metallurgy
  • Removal of Arsenic from water in water treatment plants.
  • Cold Finishing
  • Production of Coke, Steel and Iron
  • Extraction and enrichment of ores
  • Biotechnological applications
  • Protein Purification
  • Hot Forming
  • Food and beverage industries
  • Mineral Dressing Industries

Types Of Magnetic Separators
  1. Low Intensity Magnetic Separator- Low Intensity Magnetic Separator is also called Wet Separator, and majorly used in the concentration process of magnetite. These Magnetic Separators are widely used in scalping of ferrous materials in metallurgy.
  2. Medium Intensity Magnetic Separator- The robust structure of the Medium Intensity Magnetic Separator gives it a special edge over others. It is a dry separator and no less popular effective in magnetic separation than others.
  3. High Intensity Magnetic Separator- High Intensity Magnetic Separators can be either dry or wet and are used to collect metal fraction in the metallurgy process.
