For example, dense media separation attempts to exploit the disparity in mass density between so-called "light" metal fractions (e.g., aluminum and magnesium) and the "heavies" (e.g., copper, brass, and zinc) (Lee et al., 1994). Unfortunately, the process is prohibitively expensive to implement, and so very few recycling facilities are ...

The conducting materials of the intermediate size fraction proceed to a heavy media process in two stages, to separate magnesium, aluminum and heavy metals (zinc, brass/bronze and copper). Aluminum and magnesium are typically sold to smelters; whereas the mixture of heavy metals is sold to post-shred sorting companies that further …

Subsequently, sink-float separation methods are frequently applied to remove non-metallic materials, such as plastics, wood, and rubber from the metals. Thereafter, heavy media separation processes using ferrosilicon suspensions at densities of 3200–4200 kg/m3 are often used to separate the heavy metals, such as stainless …

Dense media separation processes find wide use. Prior to the development of complex DMS systems, separating valuable product from waste byproducts was challenging. Yet, DMS changed the refining process for any compound where the refined product varies in density from the unrefined product. The Scrap recyclers also apply the same process.

XRF works best on the heavy metal fraction to produce individual commodities or groups, he says. For example, it can separate copper-bearing metals from other nonferrous metals, like zinc and stainless, in one pass. Then, in a second pass, it can separate that concentrated copper fraction into copper, brass, and printed circuit boards.

How it works. The Dense medium separation (DMS) or heavy medium separation (HMS), or Sink-Float gravimetric separation, also known within the field of the scrap treatment as Flotation, is a process used to separate materials that have different specific weight. To obtain this kind of separation, the material to be separated is immersed into a …
