Method and apparatus for continuous magnetic separation

摘要: Particles in a slurry are continuously separated accordance with their magnetic moment by passing the through separator. The separator comprises non-magnetic canister magnetized wire or rod extending adjacent to canister. is field Ho create magnetization component transverse longitudinal axis. A gradient extends everywhere within space and exerts radial force on particles Depending upon orientation of field, vis-a-vis canister, diamagnetic can be attracted toward paramagnetic repelled (diamagnetic capture mode operation); vice-versa, for usually rotated 90 DEG respect plane (paramagnetic operation). Two more laterally spaced outlets provided at bottom collect particles. In further embodiment invention, single apparatus invention extended system selective separation particles, according susceptibility only; independent density, size shape this embodiment, family streams fed into Each stream differs from each other susceptibilities fluids streams. thus established which used separate stream.
