Application of Magnetic Forces to Disk Vacuum Filtration in the Laboratory and Plant

Abstract

An account is given on the extension of magnetic vacuum filtration to a laboratory disk filter, and subsequently to an industrial vacuum disk filter. The design of the laboratory disk filter and the evaluation of magnetic field strengths and gradients is described, and results presented for the treatment of steelmaking and magnetite pulps. The modification of an industrial disk filter is also detailed and results discussed for tests on the dewatering of pulps containing finely ground magnetite.
