Dense medium cyclones are used extensively in the minerals processing industry around the world and cyclones with larger diameters have been introduced in recent years. Although cyclones have been in use for well over 60 years, the influence of the different process variables such as cyclone dimensions, feed pressure, medium …
The dense medium separation process (DMS) is a mature technology, and is widely used in mineral and coal processing. The dense medium cyclone (DMC) is the most ubiquitous of the DMS vessels in use, and deservedly so. It is efficient (when run properly), can process both coarse and fine sizes, and has a relatively small footprint.
The dense medium cyclone (DMC), also known as the heavy medium cyclone, is the work horse of modern coal preparation to upgrade run-of-mine coal in the 0.5–50 mm size range. Its working principle has been well documented (King and Juckes, 1984, Svarovsky, 1984, Wills, 1992, Chu et al., 2009a).

Among them, a commonly used equipment for the DMS process is a dense medium cyclone (DMC), which can separate dense media according to the difference in specific gravity.. 1. Crushing: The material is first crushed to a smaller size to facilitate the release of valuable minerals from the gangue. 2. Prepare the suspension: usually a finely ground …
From the early 1960's until the mid 1980's, dense medium cyclone circuitry design technology did not change appreciably. The basic design, which was both
A technology used to process larger sized coal particles (typically above 25mm) is a dense medium drum (DMD) separator. These plants make use of a medium set at a specific density to separate coal from gangue. This paper shows how nonlinear model predictive control (NMPC) can be applied to an industrial DMD plant with a …
Dense media separation widely applied in the mining process like a diamond plant, copper, zinc processing, combine with flotation machine, crusher, trommel screen, thickener, etc.
In a 700 t/h coal washing plant in Turkey, comprising dense medium drums and dense medium cyclones, a plant audit was conducted using density tracers. In this study, the data obtained from the dense medium cyclone and drum circuits during the plant survey are presented.

The core of the intelligent control system of a dense medium process is to predict the technical parameters on line in which there are several parts: predicting the raw coal density-consist, forecasting and optimizing of the products yield and ash, and optimizing the medium density and desired density.
The MULTOTEC dense medium cyclone has been successfully applied in, primarily, coal washing but also in hard rock beneficiation, specifically diamonds, iron ore and platinum, to enhance and improve the overall process resulting in improved revenues for the user-plant.
Dense Medium Separation (DMS) is extensively used in the coal industry, particularly in coal preparation plants (also known as coal wash plants), to separate coal from impurities. This process is crucial for producing clean coal that meets quality specifications for energy generation and various industrial applications.
