A synthetic bead for use in mineral separation is described. The synthetic bead has a surface made of a synthetic material such as polymer and the synthetic material is functionalized with molecules having a functional group for attaching mineral particles to the surface in a separation process. The synthetic beads can be placed in flotation cell containing a mixture of water, valuable material and unwanted material or in a pipeline where the mixture is transported from one location to another. The enriched synthetic beads carrying the mineral particles are separated from the unwanted materials in the mixture. The mineral particles are then released from the synthetic beads by means of low pH treatment, ultrasonic agitation, thermal or electromagnetic treatment. |

The invention relates to a method for separation of elements from a fluid using affinity-bearing particles suspended in the fluid and using ultrasonic standing waves and micro-fluidics. The method includes the steps of: mixing said fluid mixture with particles (10) having affinity to at least one element (9) to be separated; allowing the element (9) to be separated to bind to said affinity-bearing particles (10); subjecting the fluid to an ultrasonic wave field resulting in forces on the affinity-bearing particles (10) but substantially no forces on elements not bound to affinity-bearing particles; and allowing said forces to move said affinity-bearing particles (10) to a portion of the fluid thus obtaining a locally higher concentration of affinity-bearing particles. The method may be performed in a process with continuous flow. |

The invention concerns a process for the separation of viscoplastic materials such as plastics and rubber from materials, particularly paper, which can be shredded and defibrated by mechanical action, and a device to carry out the process. The process is chararcterised in that the mixture of the materials to be separated is subjected to radial, axial and tangential acceleration forces, with a mass flow of comminuted fibrous material and another mass flow of essentially intact plastic materials being drawn off separately. The device for carrying out the process consists of a strainer basket (1) of cylindrical or preferably polygon shape, the outer casing of which is provided with holes (2) to allow the fibrous materials to pass through. The inside of the strainer basket is provided with a coaxial drive shaft (3) with preferably rigidly mounted blades (4). |

The invention relates to a method for separating a machining suspension, which accumulates for example during the mechanical machining of silicon, quartz or ceramic, from a cutting fluid. Abrasive grains, in addition to attrition material from both the machined material and the machining equipment are dispersed in said cutting fluid. According to said method, the suspension is separated by wet-sizing, whereby the liquid used for said wet-sizing process is selected so that it can be mixed with the cutting fluid used and that the resultant mixture forms a stable suspension, in particular with the attrition material from the machined material. The method enables the abrasive grains to be separated cleanly from the attrition material and the cutting fluid. |

Small, wet particulate material is effectively dried by adding a hydrophobizing agent to the wet particulate material to coat the surfaces of the particulates, and then using a gaseous fluid to mechanically remove water droplets from the surfaces of the particulates. Once on the surface of the particulates, the hydrophobizing reagent makes the particulates relatively more hydrophobic and increases the contact angle between the particulates and water preferably to an angle of 90 degrees or greater. The activity of the hydrophobizing reagent is to repel water. After altering the hydrophobicity of the particulates, the gaseous fluid, which is preferably air under pressure, is directed at mild pressure over the surfaces of the particulates to remove the water. Because the tendency of the hydrophobizing agent is to increase the particulates' tendency to repel water, the water is easily displaced from the surface of the particulates under mild conditions. The process can be used to dewater a wide variety of constituents including coal particles, clays, sulfide minerals, phosphorous compounds, metal oxide minerals, metals and waste sludge. |
