IMPROVING FINES RECOVERY BY GRINDING FINER

An excellent case study is the installation of IsaMills in the Mount Isa lead zinc concentrator to grind lead and zinc rougher concentrate to 12 microns and zinc cleaner tailings to 7 microns. Most plant losses had previously been in the sub 10-micron fraction, yet ultra-fine grinding increased plant recovery by 5% lead and 10% zinc.

CHAPTER 3 SLUDGE THICKENING

Sludge Thickening vs. Dewatering Both are methods of solids concentration and volume reduction. Only the degree of volume reduction is different. Generally thickeners concentrate sludge at lower than 15% concentration, the dewatering units concentrate the sludge to higher than 15% concentration [3].

How Antimony is Processed by Flotation

The problem discussed in this antimony process study is limited to a concentrator capable of beneficiating 150 tons per day of antimony ore. The antimony in this study occurs as the mineral stibnite (Sb2S3) in association with small amounts of pyrite, arsenopyrite, galena and lead sulfantimonides. The gangue is composed largely of …

Lead Barite Fluorspar Separation Method

The thickened concentrates at 50-60 percent solids are removed by Adjustable Stroke Diaphragm Pumps and fed by gravity to the filters. The lead and barite concentrates are dewatered by disc filters and the fluorspar by a drum type fluorspar filter. Concentrate Handling. The filtered lead concentrate drops into bins.

Sludge Thickening

The primary objective of sludge thickening is to concentrate the solids, thus reducing the volume of sludge. Thickeners may increase the solids concentration by a factor of 2–5 and produce a clarified liquid effluent. Thickening is accomplished by either gravity or dissolved-air flotation. A gravity thickener is shown in Figure 10. The ...

Concentrate Dewatering & Thickening

The size of a concentrate thickener is determined by the tonnage of solid material to be dewatered, the amount of water in the pulp, and the settling rate of the solids.

Introduction to sludge thickening

Thickening processes are those which concentrate the sludge by removing part of the free water. In doing so, the finished product retains the liquid, free-flowing characteristics of the feed sludge, so that it can still be conveyed by pumping. Thickening normally increases the dry solids (DS) content to 4−6%.
