Detailed explanation-1: -Dewatering – uses the concentration to convert it to usable minerals. This involves filtration and sedimentation of the suspension and drying of the solid materials harvested from this suspension.
Detailed explanation-2: -Dewatering most often occurs through processes such as wet classification, centrifugation, filtration or similar liquid-solid separation processes.
Detailed explanation-3: -The process of filtration is primarily obtained by passing a pair of filtering cloths and belts through a system of rollers. The feed sludge to be dewatered is introduced from a hopper between two filter cloths (supported by perforated belts) which pass through a convoluted arrangement of rollers.
Detailed explanation-4: -Crushing and grinding. Crushing and grinding, also called comminution, is the process of reducing the particle size of large rocks to be further processed down the line. Sizing and classification. Concentration. Dewatering.
