Magnetic separator is the basic tool used by mineral processing plants to separate ferrous and non-ferrous metals from extracted ore, ensuring high-quality final products. Its works by attracting magnetic particles such as iron, steel and nickel, and then using powerful magnets or electromagnets to separate these particles from other materials.
Abstract In this study, magnesia–nickel silicate ore was investigated, which contained 0.83% Ni and antigorite, chlorite, magnetite (Fe3O4), quartz, and mica as the main minerals. Chloride roasting and magnetic separation were used to treat the ore. The addition of red mud enhanced the transformation of nickel silicate to a strongly …
Abstract. The process of deep reduction and magnetic separation was proposed to enrich nickel and iron from laterite nickel ores. Results show that …
The separation is between economic ore constituents, noneconomic contaminants and gangue. Magnetite and ilmenite can be separated from its nonmagnetic RFM of host rock as valuable product or as contaminants. The technique is widely used in beneficiation of beach sand. ... a second magnetic separation of the nickel-containing parts of the ...
An assumption was made on the segregation mechanism of nickel from garnierite ore in the previous paper. In this work, the assumption was confirmed by experimental data by using same process for extraction of nickel by XMA, electron beam scanning microscope and chemical analysis of the concentrates obtained. Fine ferronickel powder having very …
Considering on the low grade of nickel and iron in laterite nickel ore, solid-state reduction roasting combined with magnetic separation to remove the magnesium silicates and unreduced oxides can be a promising method to produce a ferronickel concentrate from laterite nickel ore .
Keyword: limonite, nickel ore, pelletization, reduction, magnetic separation. INTRODUCTION Laterite nickel ore, a low grade nickel type, is divided into saprolite and limonite [1] [2].
Magnetic separation: Magnetic separation is used to separate nickel minerals that are magnetic from non-magnetic gangue minerals. Magnetic separators apply a magnetic field to attract and separate magnetic particles from the ore. Flotation: Flotation is a widely used beneficiation technique for nickel ores.
The special magnetic separator JCTN0912 (Ø900 × 1200) mainly consists of separation cylinder, flush water device, feed tank, separation chamber, concentrate collection tank, and pneumatic agitation device (Fig. 1). When the magnetic separator is in operation, high-grade nickel matte reports to separation chamber from feed tank.
This type of magnetic separation machine is used in wet separation processes for smaller than 1,2 mm ( – 200 mesh of 30-100 %) of fine grained red mine (hematite) limonite, manganese ore, ilmenite and some kinds of weakly magnetic minerals like quartz, feldspar, nepheline ore and kaolin in order to remove impurity iron and to purify them.
In this paper, a research on preparing ferro-nickel alloy from low-grade saprolitic laterite nickel ore using metallized reduction-magnetic separation was studied.
was separated using a magnetic separator. After liquid-solid separation, the concentrate and tailings were obtained. The concentrate was dried at 150 C, and the weight of the concentrate was measured. The flow-chart of the reduction-roasting magnetic separation experiment of laterite nickel ore are shown in Figure1. The …

Separation and recovery of iron and nickel from low‒grade laterite nickel ore using reduction roasting at rotary kiln followed by magnetic separation technique. Mining, Metallurgy & Exploration ...
Thus, microwave irradiation may be a promising route in the processing of low-grade laterite ore to recover nickel and iron. In this study, rapid reduction using …
Nevertheless, when reduction roasting–magnetic separation is used to treat laterite nickel ore with low nickel content, increasing the dosage by approximately 8–20% inevitably reduces equipment life and increases cost (Liu et al.,2021). Therefore, improving the grades and recoveries of iron and nickel is of major significance.
An innovative process for preparing ferronickel materials from laterite ore by reduction roasting-magnetic separation in the presence of additives was proposed, and the effect of additives on ...
Separation and Recovery of Iron and Nickel from Low-Grade Laterite Nickel Ore Using Reduction Roasting at Rotary Kiln Followed by Magnetic Separation Technique
In conventional processing of mixed sulfide ores of copper and nickel, the separation of copper from nickel begins in the ore beneficiation plant. Although copper and nickel are mutually soluble in the metallic state, in sulfide ores they occur as distinct minerals, usually chalcopyrite (CuFeS2) and pentlandite (FeNi)8S4).
Low-grade saprolite nickel laterite, characterized by complicated minerals composition and fine-grained and complex dissemination, was commonly treated with a low recovery efficiency of Ni and Fe by conventional methods. Hence, an improved direct reduction and magnetic separation process was proposed. Meanwhile, the …

Keywords: nickel laterite; non-melting reducing; sodium chloride; magnetic separation 1. Introduction As an important metal, nickel has an important position in industrial production due to its good physicochemical properties [1,2]. Nickel resources mainly exist in the form of nickel sulfide ore and nickel laterite ore.
The method of producing ferronickel at low temperature (1250–1400°C) has been applied since the 1950s at Nippon Yakin Kogyo, Oheyama Works, Japan.
