Project Details
Single particle analysis for predictive EnAM processing
Subject Area
Mechanical Process Engineering
Term
since 2021
Project identifier
Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG) - Project number 470202518
The overarching goal of the project is to unleach the potential of using the full 3D properties of individual particles to describe and predict EnAM behavior during mechanical separation. This can be broken down to several individual objectives:• To develop the first semi-automated standardized method to measure the 3D properties of large numbers (statistically representative) of individual particles (WP1). • To analyze statistically the link between particle 3D properties in feed, tailings and concentrate for magnetic separation and density separation (WP2 and WP3). • To predict the separation of EnAM based on individual particle 3D properties (WP4)• To advise SPP partners on the ideal properties of EnAM crystals and EnAM carrying particles in order to improve separation using the most promising processing techniques and slag design systems (WP5).
