A method of dewatering magnetite to <10% w/w moisture content, including the step of extracting water from the magnetite by virtue of the magnetism of the magnetite, whereby the magnetite pulls together under magnetic attraction thereby squeezing water outwardly and away from the magnetite.

Technology is described for an electromagnetic apparatus and system that sorts different electrically conductive metals. In one example, an electrodynamic sorting circuit includes a wire-wound, gapped, core (WWGC) and a capacitor bank. The WWGC includes a magnetic core including a gap, and an electrical conductor coiled around the magnetic core. A current in the electrical conductor is configured to generate a magnetic field in the magnetic core and the gap. The capacitor bank is coupled in series with the electrical conductor of the WWGC. Various other circuitries, systems, devices, components, and methods are also disclosed.

A material separator system including a separation device to separate at least a first group and a second group of material from an incoming stream of material; the stream of material laying on a conveyor belt and being carried along a longitudinal axis to a separation device; the material separator system including at least one air nozzle adapted to blow air between the conveyor belt and the support table in order to create an air-cushion in-between.

A device for separating weakly magnetic first particles, for example hematite particles, from mixture (912) comprising the first particles (913) and less magnetic second particles (914) is presented. The device comprises first magnetizing equipment (901) for producing magnetic field and for moving the mixture so that mutually opposite polarity portions (N, S) of the magnetic field sweep the mixture in a sweeping direction and thereby deflect the direction of movement of the first particles towards the sweeping direction and away from the direction of movement of the second particles. The device comprises also a supply equipment (932) for supplying the mixture to the carrier equipment with the aid of gravitation and a second magnetizing equipment (931) connected to a feed box (920) for producing second magnetic field for deflecting a direction of movement of the first particles differently than a direction of movement of the second particles when the mixture is moved by the gravitation towards the carrier equipment so as to generate, to the mixture arriving at the carrier equipment, a concentration gradient of the first particles. The pre-concentration of the first particles simplifies their separation form the mixture.

A magnetic roll having a rotation axis, the magnetic roll including an axial series of segmented rings, each of the rings' segments incorporating a permanent having an outer end, an inner end, an axial end, an oppositely axial end, a circumferential end, a counter-circumferential end, a north pole positioned at the inner or outer end, and a south pole positioned oppositely from the north pole; a bonding matrix rigidly interconnecting the rings; and a magnetic armature operatively spanning between the permanent magnets' inner ends.
