Hydrocyclone Working Principle

Unlike the rake and spiral classifiers, the overflow of the cyclone is the exit point for the fine material instead of the other way around as it is in the case of the other two. Extending from the overflow discharge into the body, which is the feed entry point of the cyclone, is the VORTEX FINDER.

Size recovery curves of minerals in industrial spirals for processing

Mineral size recovery curves in spirals are calculated using data from two iron ore processing plants. • Recovery of iron carrier particles increase up to 0.2 mm and then decreases due to the Bagnold force.. The decrease of recovery for coarse silica carrier particles is more important than that of iron carrier particles.

The Four Types of Mineral Processing

However, the article then states that leaching is not classified as a mineral processing method, but instead should belong under the umbrella of hydrometallurgy. Much like dewatering, leaching is frequently necessary within mineral processing plants, so if dewatering is a type of mineral processing, leaching falls in line for similar reasons.
