A method to focus forward momentum of a material increase the velocity of a specific material or a number of specific materials, said method comprising the steps of: introducing a slurry of material into a high velocity accelerator, where said high velocity accelerator is adapted to impart an increase in the velocity of the materials introduced therein; expanding the volume of the slurry introduced into the high velocity accelerator without diminishing the velocity of the material; entraining said expanded slurry through injection of a liquid at high velocity towards an outlet port located in the high velocity accelerator; and focusing the entrained slurry onto a pre-determined point located proximate the outlet port of the high velocity accelerator.

A high velocity accelerator comprising: an internal chamber; a material inlet port; a material outlet port; a back wall surrounding the inlet port; an internal wall having a first end connected to the back wall and a second opposite end tapering to the outlet port, the first end being located proximate the inlet port and the second end being located proximate the outlet port; a plurality of injection ports positioned along the periphery of the internal wall proximate the first end; wherein said inlet port having a diameter smaller than the diameter of the internal chamber, and the injection ports are adapted to inject at a high rate of displacement a fluid which, in operation, will create a vortex inside the chamber thereby entraining a material towards the outlet port. Uses and methods using such are also disclosed.

A method of pulverizing solid material for the purpose of extracting metals which may otherwise not be recoverable and/or cost prohibitive using conventional means and processes, said method comprising the steps of: using a gas to create a fluidized flow of previously crushed solid material; transporting the fluidized flow of solid material to an apparatus which induces a high velocity flow stream in a constricted low-pressure stream; causing a rapid acceleration on a rotational angle of the crushed solid material resulting in increased interparticle collisions and collection of solid particles; and ejecting the material at a high rate of speed from the apparatus to a focal point where the material is pulverized.

The present invention relates to a method of cleaning solids to be free of, or separating solids from, viscous materials and in some cases other solids such as, but not limited to resins and other coatings, foreign debris, clays, silts, contaminated water or chemicals and in other cases separating some liquids form some other liquids. Also disclosed are systems to accomplish such.

An intelligent elutriation magnetic separator includes a material feeding trough, an overflow trough, a separation tank, excitation coils, a balance column, an outer cover, a water supply system, a lower cone, a concentrate discharging system and sensors. The excitation coils are sleeved outside the periphery of the separation tank, and the outer cover is sleeved outside the excitation coils. The balance column is mounted on the inner sides of the separation tank; the balance column and the separation tank are coaxially mounted; and the water supply system is located on the separation tank. The lower cone and the separation tank are mounted intercommunicated at the bottom. The concentrate discharging system is mounted on the bottom of the lower cone; and the sensor is mounted on the lower cone for measuring the slurry concentration in the separation tank. An automatic intelligent program is used to control the intelligent elutriation magnetic separator.
