A 15tph fluorite ore recovery plant is designed to process 15 tons of fluorite ore per hour. Such a facility typically includes specialized equipment and technologies to maximize the extraction and recovery of fluorite from the raw ore. The key components typically include:
- Crushing Equipment: To break down the raw fluorite ore into smaller, manageable pieces.
- Grinding Mill: To further reduce the size of the ore particles and liberate the fluorite crystals from the surrounding material.
- Flotation Cells: Where reagents are added to the slurry to make the fluorite hydrophobic, enabling it to be separated from the waste rock by flotation.
- Concentrate Thickeners: To increase the concentration of the fluorite in the slurry.
- Filtration Units: To remove excess water from the fluorite concentrate.
- Tailings Management System: To handle and dispose of the leftover non-valuable materials.
The plant may also include additional equipment for washing, screening, and further refining the fluorite concentrate. Environmental management systems and safety protocols are essential components to ensure the plant operates efficiently and sustainably.
