INVESTIGATION OF SUITABILITY OF PIRITE ASH AND COPPER SLAG AS HEAVY MEDIUM MATERIAL
ABSTRACTHeavy media enrichment method is widely used in coal washing plants. Magnetite powders are generally used as heavy media. Magnetite losses occur in varying amounts in these plants, and these magnetite losses increase operating costs significantly. As a result of the operation of the mines, the storage of the wastes that are exposed to them causes environmental damage as well as environmental pollution. For this reason, in this study, it was investigated that the use of copper slag and pyrite ash an alternative heavy media materials to magnetite in order to reduce operating costs in coal washing and to evaluate the mining waste plants.
