The Investigation of Separability of Particles Smaller Than 5mm by Eddy-Current Separation Technology - Part II: Novel Design Concepts

Separability and separation mechanisms of small particles in modern rotating type eddycurrent separators (ECSs) were discussed in Part I. In order to address problems associated with this design concept, a number of novel ECSs, each with a unique design, have been developed. Part II reports on investigation into the separability and separation...

The Investigation of Separability of Particles Smaller Than 5 mm by Eddy Current Separation Technology. Part I: Rotating Type Eddy Current Separators

Owing to the growing emergence of the end-of-life electrical and electronic products with complex material structures and an ever-diminishing particle size of the valuable metals involved, development of eddy current separators (ECS) has been targeting selective separation of small non-ferrous metal particles smaller than 5 mm. Separability of...
