The processing of heavy minerals and coal is often carried out using spiral classifiers. Processing of iron ore to separate coarse iron oxides such as hematite from light gangue mineral, such as quartz, is carried out in circuits with several hundreds of rougher, cleaner and re-cleaner spirals (Bazin et al., 2014).

View ALL our Spiral Classifiers Models. In Mineral Processing, the SPIRAL Classifier on the other hand is rotated through the ore. It doesn't lift out of the slurry but is revolved through it. The direction of rotation causes the slurry to be pulled up the inclined bed of the classifier in much the same manner as the rakes do.
The low-grade clay-rich -1.0 mm fraction of fine iron ores have often proved difficult to upgrade and capital intensive to process when using traditional wet beneficiation technology including single or two stage hydrocyclone desliming, wet high intensity magnetic separation (WHIMS), spirals and final dewatering using fine screens. Very fine …

The objective of this report is to understand the principles of classification, and the types of classifiers used in mineral processing.
Traditional gravity classifiers that leverage differential settling velocities in the gravitational field are bulky and ineffective for particles less than 150 μ m.In this study, a newly introduced compact enhanced gravity Closed Spiral Classifier (CSC) is tested experimentally for the classification of slurries containing silica or iron ore fines.
The REFLUX™ Classifier is a recently developed water-based gravity separation technology that is already being used worldwide to beneficiate particles above 0.100 mm in size. This paper reports tests performed on an ultra-fine iron ore with nominal top size of 0.106 mm, but with 59 wt-% being below 0.038 mm in size.
In the upper region of the blast furnace where temperature range from 600 to 700 C. the iron ore or iron oxide is reacts with the gaseous CO reductant to produce iron: Fe 2 O 3 (s) + 3CO(g) → 2Fe + 3CO 2 (g) Lower in the blast furnace where higher temperatures occur, the iron ore may react directly with the coke or carbon:
The generation of iron ore fines in dry processing plant of Khondbond region, India is about 30–40% of the total feed. The iron ore fine assayed 58.73% Fe (T), 5.54% Al 2 O 3, 6.6% SiO 2, and 4.37% LOI. Particle size distribution of fines showed that 50% (by weight) of material are below 1800 μm.
The most common element that makes up rock formations is iron, which accounts for about 5 percent of the earth's crust. India alone has a significant reserve of iron ore in the world [].The two most common iron minerals, hematite and magnetite, and are widely exploited for commercial applications, particularly steel production …
Hydraulic classifiers range from simple V-shaped launders with a multiplicity of shallow settling pockets for the discharge of as many roughly sized products to the more elaborate deep-pocket machines of the hindered- settling type, having specially designed construction plates and automatic discharge of spigot products..

This type of system is often used in high-capacity applications such as iron ore beneficiation. Parameters affecting spiral classifier efficiency. Spiral classifier is one of the most important equipment in iron ore beneficiation process, and its efficiency will directly affect the efficiency of the whole beneficiation process.
Mineral processing plants use hydrocyclones to classify coarse and fine particles. The hydrocyclone is a robust piece of equipment whose operation can be hampered by mechanical and operation problems.

The control of a milling operation is a problem in imponderables: from the moment that the ore drops into the mill scoop the process becomes continuous, and continuity ceases only when the products finally come to rest at the concentrate bins and on the tailing dams. Material in process often cannot be weighed without a ... [#]
