Magnetite is used in dense media circuits in coal beneficiation in the form of a very fine powder, it is added to water to form a Heavy Media Slurry that has a higher specific gravity than water alone. Separation is achieved between those mineral particles which have a specific gravity less than the specific gravity of the

Magnetite is an iron-oxide mineral that occurs naturally on Earth. Because it is also an important component of many anthropogenic materials (e.g., coal fly ash) and synthetic products (e.g., black toner powders), magnetite can be released to the environment through human activities ().In PNAS, Maher et al. describe the abundant …

Magnetite recovery circuit operation and magnetite consumption are the main reasons for high capital and operating costs. Over the last two decades, several countries have been actively …
Magnetite, slurried in water, is used to create an apparent heavy medium in which fine coal (0.1 to 2.4 mm) is cleaned of its mineral impurities. The magnetite is much finer in size (1 to 44 μm) than the coal and is usually recovered from the coal and refuse by magnetic drum separators. Their performance suffers from changes in feed conditions and a number of …

2001 level. Based on the need for 130,000 tons of magnetite annually, the increase in the annual cost of magnetite for Kentucky coal operators rose from $9.1 million to $21.5 million over the past 5 year. In terms of a single unit operation, magnetite cost has increased $0.08/clean ton to $0.18/clean ton based on a 1998 coal preparation survey

Implementation of the above recommendations reduced the magnetite losses in the coal washing plants from about 1.64 kg/t to 1.3 kg/t. This in terms of raw coal processed in the cyclone circuit reduced the magnetite consumption by 639 t, resulting in a savings of US$27,500/annum. The cost savings are shown in Table 5.

Commercial magnetite often contains significant amounts of α- and γ-Fe 2 O 3, in addition to magnetite. As α-Fe 2 O 3 is non-magnetic, it is not removed in the magnetic separator and is discharged in the refuse. It is believed that this is the cause for much of the loss of heavy media experienced in the coal cleaning plants.
