Mineral Processing and Extractive Metallurgy Review

The article makes an effort in consolidating the developments in the field of advanced gravity separation techniques for processing fine particles over the last few decades. The application potentials of various unit operations and the influence of process variables and feed characteristics on the process performance are identified. Fundamentals of advanced gravity separators are discussed from theoretical and applied perspectives. Comparative analyses of various related unit operations are incorporated including the advantages and short falls of different advanced gravity separation techniques. A general guideline is presented that will help designing new mineral processing flow sheets with better efficiency indices.
