about magnetic separation in brief for project work
Answers
Magnetic separation is a process in which magnetically susceptible material is extracted from a mixture using a magnetic force. This separation technique can be useful in mining iron as it is attracted to a magnet. In mines where wolframite was mixed with cassiterite, such as South Crofty and East Pool mine in Cornwall or with bismuth such as at the Shepherd and Murphy mine in Moina, Tasmania, magnetic sepas used to separate the ores. At these mines a device called a Wetherill's Magnetic Separator (invented by John Price Wetherill, 1844–1906)[1] was used. In this machine, the raw ore, after calcinationwas fed onto a moving belt which passed underneath two pairs of electromagnets under which further belts ran at right angles to the feed belt. The first pair of balls was weakly magnetized and served to draw off any iron ore present. The second pair were strongly magnetized and attracted the wolframite, which is weakly magnetic. These machines were capable of treating 10 tons of ore a day.
It is also used in electromagnetic cranes that separate magnetic material from scraps
Magnetic Separation is which separating components of mixtures by using magnets to attract magnetically susceptible materials.[1] This separation technique can be useful in mining iron as it is attracted to a magnet. This technique is useful for not all, but few minerals such as ferromagnetic and paramagnetic. A large diversity of mechanical designs are used to separate magnetic materials.
Magnetic Cell Separation is on the rise. It is currently being used in clinical therapies, more specifically in cancers and hereditary diseases researches.[4] Magnetic cell separation took a turn when, Zborowski, an Immunomagnetic Cell Separation (IMCS) pioneer, analyzed commercial magnetic cell separation. Zborowski uncovered crucial revelations that were then used, and are still used today, in the human understanding of cell biology.[4] Today, the manufacture of therapeutic products concerning cancers and genetic diseases, are being innovated due to these discoveries.
