Ilmenite is an opaque, iron black to steel gray mineral with brittle characteristics and weak magnetism. Therefore, the beneficiation process is generally magnetic separation or magnetic separation flotation combined process. Ilmenite ore dressing equipment mainly includes jaw crusher, hydraulic cone crusher, ball mill, grader, strong magnetic separator, flotation machine, etc.
As ilmenite in primary ore is often associated with magnetite and vanadic titanomagnetite, and ilmenite in placer ore is often co produced with rutile, zircon, monazite, xenotime, etc., ore dressing is required to improve the grade of ilmenite and make it economically valuable.
Beneficiation generally requires crushing screening, grinding classification, separation (magnetic separation or flotation), dehydration, drying and other processes. For the treatment of ilmenite, magnetic separation process is generally selected. If sulfide flotation and fine ilmenite flotation are required, flotation process is required.
The equipment used in crushing process includes jaw crusher, cone crusher, vibrating screen, etc. The equipment used in grinding and classification process includes wet ball mill, spiral classifier, etc. The equipment used in separation process is the core of ilmenite beneficiation equipment, generally including strong magnetic separator, flotation machine, etc. The equipment used in dehydration process includes disc filter, dehydration screen, etc.
For ores with large reserves such as ilmenite, the processing capacity of 500 tons of ilmenite per day is considered as a small and medium-sized concentrator. The equipment configuration list is as follows:
Crushing equipment: 1 jaw crusher, model 500 × 700, power 55Kw; One impact crusher, model 1010, power 75Kw;
Grinding and classification equipment: one ball mill, model MQg2145, power 210Kw; One spiral classifier, model: FLG2000, power: 11Kw;
Sorting equipment: one permanent magnetic cylinder magnetic separator, model: CTBy1024, power: 7.5kw;
Dehydration equipment: one disc filter, model PG27-6;
Other equipment: one tilting feeder, model 600 × 600, power 1.5Kw.
The above introduces the common types of ilmenite beneficiation equipment and the beneficiation equipment used for the daily output of 500 tons of ilmenite. Xinhai has rich project experience in ilmenite beneficiation. Xinhai can provide customers with one-stop services such as beneficiation scheme design, production line configuration, equipment installation, and later concentrator operation. Our ilmenite beneficiation equipment has the following advantages:
1. The scheme is optimized and the equipment is well configured
When initially designing the beneficiation scheme for the customer, we will design 2-3 sets of schemes according to the customer's requirements and in combination with the mineral composition, list the investment price and concentrate grade of each set of schemes, and finally select a better scheme according to the customer's requirements. The tacit understanding between the equipment is conducive to the operation of the ilmenite beneficiation production line.
2. Advanced equipment production process
The mineral processing equipment produced by Xinhai adopts international advanced technology, which is conducive to improving the grade of ilmenite concentrate and the recovery rate, and has reasonable price and higher cost performance.
3. Good beneficiation effect
The whole set of ilmenite beneficiation process is conducive to the separation of titanium concentrate, with high beneficiation grade and high utilization rate, which is conducive to the deep processing of raw ore.
