Description
Class B03 encompasses separation technologies for solid materials based on physical properties including density, magnetic susceptibility, and electrical conductivity. It covers wet separation methods (using liquids and pneumatic tables or jigs), magnetic separation, electrostatic separation, and high-voltage electric field separation. Applications include mineral processing, recycling, waste management, and beneficiation of ores where different solid components must be isolated from mixed feeds.
