The present invention provides a method and an apparatus for producing a resin powder or an inorganic powder and capable of easily removing the metal component generated from the sieving wire mesh itself in addition to space saving and a high processing speed in the sieving step while maintaining the classification capacity of the sieving wire mesh. The method including: a sieving step of sieving a resin powder to be processed or an inorganic powder to be processed using a sieving wire mesh having a Vickers hardness of 220 HV or more; and a magnetic separation step of removing, from a resin powder or an inorganic powder containing a metal component after the sieving step, the metal component using a magnetic separator. The apparatus including: a sieving wire mesh having a Vickers hardness of 220 HV or more; and a magnetic separator.

A system and a method for separating and recycling magnets made from rare earth elements from an article of manufacture used an alignment device to property position the rare earth magnet for processing. Once proper alignment is made, a separating device removes the magnet and a portion of the article. A heating device demagnetizes the magnets and vibration causes the magnets to separate from the portion of the article. Electromagnets remove the portion of the article and the rare earth magnets pass through for reclamation.

An apparatus for separating hot particles including a plurality of materials having different magnetic properties includes a plurality of permanent magnets arranged in a magnet assembly and configured to create a magnetic flux capable of providing a coercive force on at least a portion of the particles, the magnet assembly being mounted on a stationary shaft, a moving surface proximate the magnet assembly for carrying the particles in a downward path through the magnetic flux while the coercive force attracts the portion of the hot particles toward the moving surface, the moving surface being mounted on a drive shaft supported by a bearing, and an inert gas supply system which supplies inert gas into a gap between the stationary shaft and the drive shaft for cooling the drive shaft and the bearings, and into the magnet assembly for purging the magnet assembly of oxygen.

A separation device includes a magnet plate on which a well plate having a plurality of wells is placed, which separates a sample utilizing a magnetic force, and which includes a magnet arranged at a side portion of each well to correspond to each well. One magnet is provided at a side portion of one well to correspond to the one well, and a magnetic member is arranged between the one magnet and another well adjacent to the one well.
