Magnetic Separation in Mining and Mineral Processing

Magnetic Disc Separator across the conveyed mineral mix

Magnetic separators are commonplace in most mining and mineral processing operations.  However, the term ‘magnetic separator’ encompasses a diverse range of specialist separation equipment with the ability to separate widely different materials such as large tramp metal and paramagnetic minerals. Magnetic separators for the mining and mineral processing sectors are broadly differentiated into two ranges. …

High Intensity Magnetic Separation at XVIII ECerS

Model HIF225-50 Electro Magnetic Filter

The XVIIIth Conference of the European Ceramic Society takes place in Lyon, on 2-6 July 2023.  On stand 19, Bunting is highlighting the necessity of using high-intensity magnetic separators to remove iron, iron-bearing and paramagnetic minerals to reduce defect rates and improve surface brightness. Paramagnetic Minerals and Fine Iron Contamination Materials used in the manufacture…

Electromagnetic Filters for Ceramics

Electromagnetic Filters for Ceramics

Since the first ceramics were produced, iron and iron-bearing minerals have caused defects.  The problematic minerals occur naturally in the raw materials, with additional fine iron accidentally introduced during transportation, storage or processing. Effective removal often involves several stages of magnetic separation.  However, the introduction of High-Intensity Electromagnetic Filters proved ground-breaking in terms of removing…

Iron Separation Technology at Ceramics UK Show

Electro magnetic filter

Successfully removing fine iron from ceramic slips and glazes is vitally important in any ceramics plant.  Such iron contamination is removed using high intensity magnetic separators like those on display on the Bunting and Master Magnets stand 1517 at the Ceramics UK show (10-11 July 2019, Telford, United Kingdom). Iron contamination causes surface defects (black…
