For laboratory equipment used for the separation of copper, cobalt, and nickel by wet methods, is it more effective and suitable to use mixed sedimentation tanks or centrifugal extractors?； Which one is easier to operate and more suitable for beginners? Which product are everyone using?
The centrifugal extractor still performs best – it has wide applicability, requires a small amount of extractant, allows for various extraction experiments to be conducted, and does not need large quantities of extractant.
For laboratory use, whether it is a pilot lab or a pilot-scale plant, a mixed clarifier is recommended for pilot labs, as pilot centrifugal extractors generally use equipment with a drum inner diameter of 20 mm. The channel is narrow, and even a small amount of impurities remaining in the solution can cause the drum to get blocked, affecting the experiment. In pilot-scale laboratories, centrifugal extractors with a drum inner diameter of 50 mm are generally used, allowing for a small amount of impurities in the liquid. Good. If you have specific requirements, please contact me at jqh0001@163; I have both centrifugal extraction unit experimental setups and mixing and settling tank experimental setups.
The wet separation tank for nickel-copper mixtures is suitable, designed specifically for hydrometallurgical extraction.
There are still some concerns regarding the reliability of centrifuges
