CONCENTRATION INFLUENCES ON RECOVERY IN A HIGH-GRADIENT MAGNETIC SEPARATION AXIAL FILTER

The buildup differential equations for the case of a single wire in hi gh gradient magnetic filtration (HGMF)-axial configuration taking into account the suspension concentration are solved. A new equation for t he deposit contour surface at different moments and for different susp ension concentrations are obtained. The existence of a particulate sus pension concentration, for which the radial extension velocity of depo sit is maximum, is evidenced. The recovery for an ordered ferromagneti c matrix is calculated. The influence of the solid particle concentrat ion from suspension on the filtration efficiency is presented.
