100tph diamond washing plant

A 100tph diamond washing plant is typically designed to process 100 tons per hour of diamond-bearing material. This facility usually includes several important components to ensure efficient and effective separation of diamonds from the surrounding ore. Here’s an overview of the typical components and their functions:

  1. Feeding System:

    • Hopper: Holds the raw material before it enters the plant.
    • Vibrating Feeder: Ensures steady flow of materials into the washing plant.

  2. Scrubber/Trommel:

    • Scrubber: A rotating drum designed to break up and wash away clay, dirt, and other impurities from the diamond ore.
    • Trommel: A large rotating drum with screens that eliminates fine materials and keeps larger stones for further processing.

  3. Classification Unit:

    • Screens and Sieves: Separate materials based on size to ensure that only appropriately sized particles move to the next stage.

  4. Concentration Equipment:

    • Dense Media Separation (DMS): Uses a dense fluid to separate diamonds from lighter materials.
    • Jigs: Utilize water and gravity to concentrate heavier diamond particles.

  5. Recovery System:

    • X-ray Sorters: Detects diamonds using X-ray technology and separates them automatically.
    • Grease Tables: Takes advantage of the fact that diamonds stick to grease and other materials do not.

  6. Tailings Management:

    • A system to handle and dispose of the waste materials from the washing process, often ensuring environmentally friendly practices.

  7. Water Supply and Management:

    • Essential for scrubbing and separating processes, including recycling and treatment systems to manage water usage efficiently.

Operational Considerations:

  • Power Supply: Ensure the plant has a reliable power source to maintain continuous operations.
  • Labor: Qualified personnel to operate and maintain various components of the plant.
  • Environmental Compliance: Following local and international regulations regarding mining and water usage.
