The relevance of the paper is that dry magnetic separation (DMS) is the main beneficiation method of magnetite ores. The lack of efficient industrial-grade machines and apparatus for separating fine-grained magnetite ores means that DMS is used mainly as a pre-concentration operation for fairly large classes. The aim of the research is to study the possibility of using a new magnetic separator model in the process of dry beneficiation of magnetite ore from the Bapy deposit. This paper presents theoretical and experimental studies of a new model of a magnetic separator. The mathematical modeling of the magnetic separation process of the device was carried out to evaluate the parameters in accordance with which a laboratory separator was subsequently manufactured. For the experimental study of the properties of this magnetic system, a laboratory magnetic separator was built. The possibility of using a new magnetic separator in the process of dry beneficiation of magnetite ore from the Bapy deposit was investigated. The industrial scheme being implemented consists in ore crushing and two stage dressing on dry drum magnetic separators. The study of beneficiation indicators of the magnetic separator was carried out using iron ore of the Bapy deposit, which is mono-mineral magnetite. For the study, mixtures of the minus 0.1 mm class were selected with the iron content α = 50% and α = 40%. As a result of the research, beneficiation indicators were obtained on a laboratory scale. Therefore, the improvement of the beneficiation scheme is reduced to the isolation of a small product and its subsequent beneficiation using a new model of magnetic separator. Thus, the presented magnetic separator is suitable for dry processing of crushed magnetite ore.
