Creation of superconducting magnetic separators for weakly magnetic mineral raw material processing

The paper describes the investigations to work out the design and process parameters of superconducting commercial separators using laboratory units. The design features of the magnet system and the cryostat of the separator of the disk type for wet separation of weakly magnetic ores and non-ore materials are presented. The results of modelling the technological flowsheets for separation of various types of weakly magnetic material using SC magnetic separators are given. The necessity to further improve the magnetic separators in the direction of generation of the magnetic flux higher magnetic forces and densities is well-grounded.
