Abstract
Using the MagNet software package, a permanent magnetic circuit was simulated and a sectorially-spliced magnetic system was designed. Consequently, a new roller permanent magnetic separator with different magnetic field intensities in each roller was developed. The modular structural design allows fine-grained minerals with different magnetic susceptibility to be separated in one pass, according to their different processing characteristic. Steel slag, selected from a factory, was crushed, ground and sieved into different particle size ranges for the single-factor magnetic separation experiments. It was determined that the optimum value ranges for the particle size, magnetic separation distance and rotating frequency were 0.15 mm-0.3 mm, 10 mm-12 mm, 40 Hz~60Hz, respectively; using the chosen parameter values of 0.2mm, 11mm, and 40Hz, the concentrate recovery and concentrate grade of the new separation technology reached up to 52.78% and 64.74%, in comparisson with the existing technology. Thus, it was demonstrated that the self-developed separation technology has the potential to improve the iron recovery of the fine-grained steel slag.
期刊介绍:
Engineering Review is an international journal designed to foster the exchange of ideas and transfer of knowledge between scientists and engineers involved in various engineering sciences that deal with investigations related to design, materials, technology, maintenance and manufacturing processes. It is not limited to the specific details of science and engineering but is instead devoted to a very wide range of subfields in the engineering sciences. It provides an appropriate resort for publishing the papers covering prior applications – based on the research topics comprising the entire engineering spectrum. Topics of particular interest thus include: mechanical engineering, naval architecture and marine engineering, fundamental engineering sciences, electrical engineering, computer sciences and civil engineering. Manuscripts addressing other issues may also be considered if they relate to engineering oriented subjects. The contributions, which may be analytical, numerical or experimental, should be of significance to the progress of mentioned topics. Papers that are merely illustrations of established principles or procedures generally will not be accepted. Occasionally, the magazine is ready to publish high-quality-selected papers from the conference after being renovated, expanded and written in accordance with the rules of the magazine. The high standard of excellence for any of published papers will be ensured by peer-review procedure. The journal takes into consideration only original scientific papers.
