Cone angle of 20 ~. Cyclones typically treat ores and coal in the range mm. The largest cyclones now exceed 1 m in diameter and are capable of throughputs in coal preparation of over 250 t/h The ore or coal is suspended in the medium and introduced tangentially to the cyclone either via a pump or it is gravityfed. The dense material is ...
The dense medium cyclone (DMC), also known as the heavy medium cyclone, is the work horse of modern coal preparation to upgrade runofmine coal in the –50 mm size range. Its working principle has been well documented ( King and Juckes, 1984, Svarovsky, 1984, Wills, 1992, Chu et al., 2009a ).

The partition curve shown in Figure 3 depicts the recovery efficiency for the 2 x mm size fraction, measured in a 660 mm densemedium cyclone processing minus 50 mm coal.

length of approximately cyclone diameter. Feed MediumtoCoal Ratio The recommended mediumtocoal ratio in the cyclone feed when treating South African coals with excessive neargravity material is :1 (Peatfield, 2003). Dense medium cyclones that operate at mediumtocoal ratios below :1, when
Densemedium beneficiation of fine (minus mm) coal is not a new concept and has been used in South Africa previously. The densemedium fine coal plant at Greenside Colliery operated for almost 18 years and, despite proving a difficult plant to operate, did succeed in producing a fine coal product with a low ash content of 7%. No other ...
May 24, 2016· PRACTICAL OPERATIONAL ASPECTS OF DENSE MEDIUM CYCLONE SEPARATION F Bornman Multotec Process Equipment (Pty) Ltd 28 Forge Road, Spartan Kempton Park, 1620, South Africa (Author: faanb) ABSTRACT Reeves and Platt1 stated that dense medium separation is one of the most complex unit processes in mineral processing today .
cyclones. Furthermore, the slurry mixture of the heavy medium utilised for the purpose of dense medium separation should be nondetrimental to the effectiveness of separation in the DMS Fine cyclone plant. Medium characterisation showed that removal of ultrafines leads to unstable media as indicated by faster settling rates.

During this period, the "typical" dense medium cyclone circuit was designed to process raw coal in the mm x mm size range. Coarser coal was processed in dense medium vessels or jigs, and the fines were processed in spirals, wateronly cyclones, or flotation.
Dense media separators are commonly used for preconcentration of coal and diamonds but less commonly for other mineral systems such as lead and zinc. Due to lower head grades adding to the complexities of the ore, multistage dense media separators like the Condor can offer some advantages over the singlestage dense medium cyclones.
Dense medium processing (baths, drums, cyclones) is considered a proven technology down to a bottom size of mm ww. The need to export coal at 50 mm top‑size has promoted the use of dense medium cyclones and there are now very few large coal dense medium baths or drums being designed into new plants. Australia has been very quick
Highlights A PCbased model is formulated to predict the performance of dense medium cyclones. The validity of the model is examined by its good agreement with measurements. The effects of some key variables on DMC performance are studied by this model. The model is useful for design, control and optimization of DMCs in coal industry.
feeds, and recent large cyclone developments allow treating materials with top sizes as coarse as 100 mm and as fine as mm. Major developments in the dense medium technology include: (Wills, 1988; Hillman, 2003) • 1858 – Bessemer (UK): First dense medium process patent to remove coal
The dense medium cyclone (DMC) separates solids by density. It is a hightonnage device that has been widely used to upgrade runofmine coal in the coal industry by separating gangue from product coal. The flow in a DMC is very complicated with the presence of vorticity turbulence, an air core and segregation of medium and coal particles.
Jun 16, 2013· Dense medium 1. PRESENTATION ON DENSE MEDIUMSEPARATIONPresented ByGulfam Hussain 2. WHAT IS DENSE MEDIUM SEPARATION?Dense medium separation (or heavy medium separation (HMS),or the sinkandfloat process) is applied to the preconcentrationof minerals, the rejection of gangue prior to grinding for finalliberation.
Modelling of a 76 mm diameter dense medium cyclone treating coal in the size range 2·0 + 0·5 mm have been done on the basis of extensive experimental data generated. The behaviour of independent sizes such as 2·0+ 1·4,1·4+1·18, 1·18 + 1·0, 1·0 + 0·6,0·6+0·5 mm fractions within the size range of2·0+ 0·5 mm were separately analysed.
Dense medium cyclones. A cyclone is a conical vessel in which coal along with finely ground magnetite (media) is pumped tangentially to a tapered inlet and short cylindrical section at a predetermined flowrate and pressure followed by a conical section where the separation takes place.
The results indicated that the densemedium cyclone was capable of cleaning down to mm. Ultrasonic treatment appeared to have only minimal impact on the overall separation of the coal and ...
