20080236457 | METHOD FOR TREATING BOTTOM ASH - A method for treating bottom ash from a waste incineration plant. The invention relates in particular to a method for treating bottom ash from a domestic waste incineration plant. In accordance with the invention bottom ash having a size ranging up to 2 mm is treated by removing a previously determined component. The treatment comprises at least one of the following steps: the removal of organic components, the removal of heavy metals, the removal of ions and the removal of a fraction having a size of up to 50 μm. It is preferred for the nonferrous heavy metals to be removed and the ferrous metals to remain in the fraction. Most preferably at least one of the treatment steps comprises a wet treatment. | 10-02-2008 |
20100314298 | Method and Device for the Separation of Particles - The invention relates to a method of separating a particle fraction from a particle stream making use of gravitational force and which is performed in a fluid. This provides particle fractions that are collected in respective collecting means. According to the invention the fluid and the collecting means are moved in relation to each other defining a relative direction of movement. There are means provided to limit the movement of the particles to be separated with respect to the fluid in the relative direction of movement. The invention also relates to an apparatus for carrying out the method. | 12-16-2010 |
20110042274 | Method and Apparatus for the Separation of Solid Particles Having Different Densities - A method and apparatus for separating solid particles of different densities, using a magnetic process fluid. The solid particles are thoroughly mixed in a small partial flow of the process fluid. The small turbulent partial flow is added to a large laminar partial flow of the process fluid, after which the obtained mixture of the respective partial process fluids is conducted over, under, or through the middle of two magnet configurations, wherein the particles are separated into lighter particles at the top of the laminar process fluid and heavier particles at the bottom of the laminar process fluid, each of which are subsequently removed with the aid of a splitter. After that furthermore the particles of low density and the particles of high density are separated from the respective process streams, dried and stored. Finally, the process fluid from which the particles have been removed is returned to the original starting process stream. The method according to the invention is especially suitable, for example, for separating a mixture of polypropylene particles and polyethylene particles. | 02-24-2011 |
20110049017 | Method and Apparatus for Separating Parts, in Particular Seeds, Having Different Densities - A method for separating seeds of different densities in a process stream, wherein the seeds are introduced into a magnetic process fluid for the formation of the process stream, which process stream is subjected to a magnetic field for the realization of a density stratification in the process stream, such that the individual seeds in the process stream assume a density-dependent position, after which the seeds located in or near a predetermined position or positions in the process stream, are separated from the remaining seeds in the process stream. | 03-03-2011 |
20110084005 | Separation-Apparatus - The invention relates to a separation-apparatus for separating from a particle-stream at least a first fraction with particles of a first group of dimensions, and a second fraction with particles of a second group of dimensions, comprising an infeed-device for the particle-stream, a rotatable drum having at its circumference plates, each plate having a radially extending hitting surface for the particles, at least a first receiving area proximal to the drum for receipt therein of particles of the first fraction, and at least a second receiving area distant from the drum for receipt therein of particles of the second fraction, wherein the apparatus has a housing so as to protect the particles from outside weather-conditions, allowing that the particles of the particle-stream to be processed by said apparatus have dimensions in the range 0-15 mm. | 04-14-2011 |
20120085684 | Method and Apparatus for Separating a Non-Ferous Metal-Comprising Fraction from Ferrous Scrap - Method for separating a non-ferrous metal-comprising fraction from ferrous scrap, wherein the ferrous scrap is conveyed to a processing device for separating the non-ferrous metal-comprising fraction from the remainder of the ferrous scrap. The processing device supplies a beam of water, and the ferrous scrap is conveyed and released into the waterbeam so as to cause that the ferrous scrap is allowed to fall and move further, subject to the forces of gravity and the waterbeam. | 04-12-2012 |
20120085685 | Use of an Apparatus for Separating Magnetic Pieces of Material - An apparatus for separating magnetic pieces of scrap-material of a first group from magnetic pieces of scrap-material of a second group, wherein a mixture of pieces of scrap-material from the first group and from the second group is collectively transported with a conveyor to a separating zone, in which separating zone the pieces or scrap-material are subjected to forces induced by a magnetic field and to gravitational forces. | 04-12-2012 |
20130233776 | Separation Apparatus - A separation-apparatus for separating from a particle-stream at least a first fraction with particles of a first group of dimensions, and a second fraction with particles of a second group of dimensions, comprising an infeed-device ( | 09-12-2013 |
