A ferro-magnetic material recovery system includes a drum rotating within a magnet housing. An array of magnets mounted within the magnet housing have corresponding magnetic fields which decrease in strength in the direction of rotation of the drum to extract the material from a slurry flowing through the drum.

The present invention is directed towards an apparatus and methods for a precise, fast and easy to use manipulation of beads. This method is particularly useful to carry out separation between the beads and the remaining supernants present in the fluid, maximizing the collection and purification efficiencies in tips for liquid handling.

A device for separating a metalliferous, lumpy mixture, with a conveyor belt and with a rotating drum in which a fixed magnet system with at least one magnet line is arranged. The separating effect of the device is improved and its complexity is reduced where it is provided that the magnets of the at least one magnet line are arranged such that their poles have the sequence NS SN or SN NS in the circumferential direction, as a result of which the ratio of the maximum radial magnetic flux density to the maximum tangential magnetic flux density on the belt surface, facing the material, in the region of the magnet system is greater than one and, owing to this, the electrically conductive particles are separated out into the first partial stream by radial force action (repulsion).
