Iron Ore Mineral Thickeners Concentrate Dewatering High Efficiency Thickener

Iron ore concentrate dewatering High Efficiency Thickener

1.Product Introduction High Efficiency Thickener

The High-Efficiency Thickener is a specialized dewatering system designed for iron ore concentrates. It utilizes the synergy of gravity sedimentation and mechanical scraping to achieve rapid thickening and efficient water separation. Featuring an inclined tank body and a rotating rake structure, the equipment supports continuous operation, significantly increasing concentrate density while reducing the load on downstream filtration systems. It is ideal for large-scale mineral processing lines.

2.Application High Efficiency Thickener

• Iron Ore Beneficiation: Replaces traditional thickening equipment in the concentrate dewatering stage. It raises concentrate density to optimal levels, reducing transportation volume and costs for various ores, including magnetite and hematite.

• Resource Recycling: Recovers process water and recirculates it back into the beneficiation flow, lowering fresh water consumption and supporting sustainability goals.

• Industrial Wastewater Treatment: Extends to coal, chemical, and other sectors for high-concentration material dewatering, optimizing solid-liquid separation efficiency.

3.Working Principle High Efficiency Thickener

• Gravity Sedimentation: The concentrate slurry layers within the inclined tank by gravity. Solid particles settle at the bottom to form a thickened phase layer, while clarified water is discharged through the overflow weir.

• Mechanical Scraping: A rotating rake assembly continuously moves the settled solids toward the central discharge outlet, preventing localized accumulation and ensuring a uniform, stable dewatering process.

• Automatic Control: An integrated intelligent system regulates the rake’s lift and rotational speed, adapting to varying concentration conditions and minimizing manual intervention.

4.Advantages High Efficiency Thickener

• High Efficiency & Energy Saving: The gravity-based principle reduces power consumption. Continuous operation increases throughput and significantly shortens the dewatering cycle.

• High-Density Output: Optimized sedimentation efficiency ensures the concentrate reaches a high solid content, reducing energy consumption in subsequent drying stages.

• Environmental Compliance: The enclosed structure and low-turbidity overflow design minimize dust and wastewater discharge, meeting industrial environmental standards.

• Reliability & Durability: Corrosion-resistant materials and automated protection features extend the equipment's service life with relatively low maintenance requirements.
