DMS / HMS — Coal Wash and Metal Recoveries

Magnetite with its naturally high density and magnetic properties is the preferred choice for dense medium separation processes used in coal washing and metal recycling.

DMS / HMS — Coal Wash and Metal Recoveries

Magnetite with its naturally high density and magnetic properties is the preferred choice for dense medium separation processes used in coal washing and metal recycling.

Magnetite with its natural high density and magnetic properties is the preferred choice for coal wash plants. Milled magnetite particles are suspended in water to separate coal from gangue rock and other impurities. The magnetite is then recovered by means of magnetic separation to be used again, making it one of the most cost-effective ways to clean coal.

Magnetite is also used in recycling plants to separate different metals during the recycling process with the same method. Lighter metals will be separated from heavier metals making it easier for recycling companies to recover the desired metals they need.
