1. Concentration by dense medium
The solids to be separated are immersed in a fluid with a density between that of the heavy and light products. Separation takes place according to simple Archimedean thrust or multiplied by a centrifugal force coefficient
1.1 Process advantages
Flow rates can be very high. The probable deviation is usually small, and good separation can be expected with a simple density deviation Δd
