Selection Technology of Binhai Zirconium Sand Mine

With the continuous progress of technology and rapid economic development, zirconium sand, as an important industrial raw material, has been widely used in modern industrial production. As one of the largest zirconia placers in the world, the research and application of beneficiation technology in coastal zirconia placers are of great significance for improving the efficiency and quality of zirconia sand production.

Overview of Binhai Zirconium Sand Mine

Binhai Zirconium Placer Mine is located in Binhai County, Jiangsu Province, China. It is one of the largest zirconium placers in the world, and its reserves and quality are leading in the world. The main ores of coastal zircon placer are heavy minerals Hematite, Ilmenite and zircon, of which zircon ore is the main source of zircon sand.

2、 Mineral Processing Technology of Binhai Zirconium Sand Mine

The beneficiation technology of coastal zirconium sand ore mainly includes processes such as gravity separation, magnetic separation, electric separation, and flotation. Among them, gravity separation is the most basic beneficiation process, and its main principle is to use gravity to separate the ore based on the difference in mineral density. Magnetic separation utilizes the magnetic differences of minerals for separation, electrical separation utilizes the differences in conductivity of minerals for separation, and flotation utilizes the differences in hydrophilicity and hydrophobicity of minerals for separation.

In the beneficiation process of coastal zirconium placer ore, gravity separation is the most important step, and its beneficiation effect directly affects the subsequent beneficiation process. During the re selection process, the commonly used equipment includes a re selection machine, a spiral sorting machine, a vibrating screen, and so on. During the use of these equipment, attention needs to be paid to adjusting the parameters of the equipment, such as vibration frequency, angle, impact frequency, etc., in order to achieve the best beneficiation effect.

3、 The beneficiation process flow of coastal zirconium placer ore

The beneficiation process of coastal zirconium placer ore mainly includes processes such as rough selection, intermediate selection, selection, and tailings treatment. Among them, the rough selection process mainly involves preliminary separation and screening of the ore, the intermediate selection process involves further separation and purification, and the selection process involves the final purification and separation of the ore. Tailings treatment refers to the treatment and recycling of waste generated during the beneficiation process.

In the beneficiation process of Binhai Zirconium Sand Mine, attention should be paid to the crushing and screening process of the ore, which has a direct impact on the subsequent beneficiation process. At the same time, it is necessary to reasonably treat and recycle the waste generated during the beneficiation process, in order to achieve the dual goals of environmental protection and resource utilization.

4、 Innovation in Mineral Processing Technology of Binhai Zirconium Sand Mine

With the continuous progress of technology and the continuous development of industrial production, the beneficiation technology of Binhai Zirconium Sand Mine is also constantly innovating. At present, some new mineral processing equipment and technologies have been widely applied, such as high gradient magnetic separation technology, ion exchange technology, etc. The application of these new technologies and equipment not only improves the efficiency and quality of mineral processing, but also provides new impetus for the sustainable development of coastal zirconium sand mines.

In summary, as one of the world's largest zirconium placers, the research and application of mineral processing technology in coastal zirconium placers are of great significance for improving the efficiency and quality of zirconium sand production. During the beneficiation process, it is necessary to pay attention to adjusting equipment parameters, treating waste reasonably, and constantly innovating and introducing new technologies to maintain the leading position of the beneficiation technology of the coastal zirconium sand mine.
