However, there are many scheelite tungsten mines with big coarse scheelite inlay size even over 5mm in Africa, and here gravity separation can be used to recover the coarse scheelite granules and this lowers the scheelite loss due to crushing or milling. If floatation separation is used directly for this coarse scheelite ore, the recovery rate will be lowered and this will be not so good as gravity separation. Here the scheelite tungsten gravity separator is scheelite jig separator. Gravity separation of jigging separator-shaking table is very common to use in the real operation.

Well tech company Saw-tooth Wave Jig is a new type of energy saving and high efficient gravity separation equipment and developed based on the traditional Sine Wave Jig. The difference between Saw-tooth Wave Jig and Sine Wave Jig is that the pulsation curve for jigging is saw-tooth wave shape, with speedy upward flow and slow downward flow. Bed layer is elevated integrally and slowly dropped with a long effective loose time, allowing significant increase of handling capacity for unit screen surface, decrease of lower limit of grain size recovery and large save of make-up water for under size fraction.

In practice, contrast of Saw-tooth Wave Jig and Sine Wave Jig shows up raises of recovery of Saw-tooth Wave Jig: Sn:3.01%, W:5.5%, Pb:1.63%, Zn:2.04%.

How to scheelite ore dressing process? And what grade of tungsten can be processed?

For scheelite tungsten ore, floatation separation is used very commonly due to its great floatability. Rough floatation separation and fine selection has been included in the floatation separation of scheelite. Rough floatation separation is to remove the waste to the largest extent with a good recovery while the fine selection is the key to get high grade scheelite tungsten concentrate.

The sulfide ore is usually mixed in the white ore bed with the molybdenite especially common. During the scheelite beneficiation, sulfide ore will be beneficiated by floatation separation, and then the Scheelite will be floated then. The floatation of Scheelite is done in alkaline medium. Na2CO3 and NaOH will be used to improve the Ph of the pulp to 9-10.5. Sodium silicate, quebracho juice, tannin, kinds of phosphate will work as inhibitor. oleic acid, sodium oleate, tall oil, oxidized paraffin wax soap will be used as collector with its own frothing capacity while most of them needs no blowing agent when working.

Tungsten, because of its high strength and high melting point occupies a prime position amongst metals. With depletion of high grade resources considerable R and D work is still being carried out in tungsten producing countries around the world for the processing of low grade and secondary resources. The paper gives a brief review of the hydrometallurgical processes developed to recover tungsten from low grade concentrates.

The R and D work carried out on purification and recovery of tungsten as tungstic oxide/ammonium paratungstate (APT) from a number of off-grade products such as table concentrate (WO₃=66%, SiO₂=2·2%, S=1·8%), middlings (18–20% WO₃, and 28–30% S) and jig concentrate (4·6% WO₃) are discussed in this paper. It has been found that more than 75% of silica and 90% of sulphur could be removed from the table concentrate by curing with hydrofluoric acid and subsequent roasting of the desilicated product at 650°C. In the case of middlings, it was possible to recover over 90% of tungsten as tungstic oxide by an oxidative roast followed by pressure leaching with soda.

A detailed study on the low grade jig concentrate to recover tungsten as APT, showed that over 90% extraction was possible by adopting the pressure leaching-solvent extraction route. Effect of parameters such as soda concentration, time, temperature and pressure during leaching; as well as extraction and stripping behaviour of tungsten from leach solution at different pH and aqueous to organic ratio during solvent extraction with Alamine-336, were studied and a flow-sheet was developed for processing of jig concentrate analysing 4·6% WO₃.

Tungsten Ore Beneficiation Process

Tungsten ore beneficiation processes and other mineral processing operations with tungsten in the ore require accurate mass flow measurements to properly balance the grinding and separation circuits as well as to determine the true throughput impact of circuit changes. Determination of the mass flow requires an accurate measurement of the volumetric flow rate and the specific gravity of the slurry.

Tungsten ores and concentrates are converted into the following intermediate products: APT, tungsten acid, sodium tungstate, tungsten metal powder, ferrotungsten, and tungsten carbide powder. Most of the APT is reduced to tungsten metal powder, which then may be processed into tungsten carbide powder or ferrotungsten.” End uses of tungsten include metal working, mining, and construction machinery and equipment, 74%; electrical and electronic machinery and equipment and transportation, 10%; lamps and lighting, 9%; chemicals, 4%; and other, 3%.

Beneficiation process of tungsten ore

Tungsten Ore Process

Tungsten ore is found in three forms: WS2 (rare), CaW04 (Sweden) and (FeMn)W04. We need the Mn just as much as the W, so don’t waste it. The first process is gleaned from the 1958 “Rare Metals Handbook”. First, the ore must be reduced to face powder size. We today would crush and grind, but that equipment and the alloys to build it, just will not be available for a long time.

Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) is a table about data regarding the properties of a particular substance, which may concern instructions for the safe use and potential hazards associated with a particular material or product. Therefore, MSDS is important and necessary for chemicals users. The sheet aims to offer workers and emergency personnel with procedures for handling or working in a safe way, and includes information such as physical data (melting point, boiling point, flash point, hardness, ultimate tensile strength, density, etc.), toxicity, health effects, first aid, reactivity, storage, disposal, protective equipment, and spill handling procedures. The exact format for MSDS can vary from countries to countries by respective national requirement. For example, below is part of the MSDS of tungsten electrode:

Composite tungsten electrode is an electrode adding two or more rare earth oxides into tungsten, which are complementary to improve their welding performance. Therefore, they become extraordinary in electrode family. There are different standards for composite tungsten electrode. National standard IS06848 and American standard AWSA5.12 are two of them. The surface condition of composite tungsten electrode is glabrous, clean, no default (fissure, palling), no burrs, and no inner defects on the fracture surface and no oil fouling.

Certainly, composite tungsten electrode has other applications.
Nickel-tungsten- composite tungsten electrode in hydrochloric acid solutions
Composite electroplating is developing rapidly which has been widely used in industries. In view of the squandered metal in composite electrodeposits, for example, the squandered nickel in nickel-tungsten-tungsten carbide composite electrodeposits. Nickel-tungsten-tungsten carbide composite electrode can improve effects of the amount of codeposited tungsten carbide particles, temperature and concentration of hydrochloric acid on the anodic behavior of nickel-tungsten-tungsten carbide composite electrode in hydrochloric acid solutions.

In processing industry of rare earth and high-melting-point metal, swaging apparatus and process for multi-component composite tungsten electrode is a technology.Composite tungsten electrode can be prepared from composite tungsten rod, whose manufacturing process is shown as bellow:

Take Φ6.0 of composite tungsten rod as an example. At the temperature of 1450～1500℃, reducing Φ 6.0 of tungsten rod in a Φ 6.0-Φ 5.6 mold, an then Φ 5.6 of composite tungsten rod is formed. Following the same process, under 1400～1450℃:
1. Reduce Φ 5.6 one in a Φ5.2-Φ4.8 mold
2. Reduce Φ4.8 one in a Φ4.4-Φ4.1 mold
3. Reduce Φ4.1 one in a Φ3.9-Φ3.6 mold
4. Reduce it in Φ3.3-Φ3.0 mold; finally a Φ3.0 of composite tungsten electrode is manufactured.

What mentioned above are procedures of making Φ6 composite tungsten electrode material into Φ3 one. This method can be used to make composite tungsten electrode of other standards.
