Gravity Concentration Equipment & Technology

Gravity concentration or gravity separation is a common used method of separating a suspension into its individual components. Usually, the finished concentration is a ratio of the difference between the density of the heavier particle and the fluid, to the difference between the density of the lighter particle and the fluid.

Gravity separation introduce

Gravity separation is widely used in processing coal, non-ferrous metals, rare metals and precious metal ore, also used for processing asbestos, diamond and other non-metal mineral. Gravity separation usually has jig separation, chute ore dressing, table separation (table) and heavy medium separation, etc. By use of medium, gravity separation has wet re-election and dry wind re-election. In order to enhance fine grained material of separation effect, there also used centrifugal field spiral chute, centrifuge, cyclone and reelect equipment in heavy selected process. For the most effective gravity separation, particle sizes should be relatively close, with very small or very large particles screened out.

Gravity separation technology

In mineral beneficiation industry, the common process of gravity separation method including heavy medium choose, jigging, table separation, chute choose, centrifugal choose, etc. The advantage of gravity separation are low processing cost, can handle a wide range of material particle size (from 0.02mm to Hundreds of mm), less of environmental pollution and so on..
