DEVICE FOR PROCESSING OF METAL-CONTAINING CONCENTRATES Russian patent published in 1997 - IPC

FIELD: devices for processing of metal-containing concentrates, which have radiation source chamber for exposure of raw materials to radiation and apparatus for leaching. SUBSTANCE: device has capacitor storage, control panel, pump and drive, liquid level gage and pipes. Chamber is made in form of horizontal cylinder with inlet and outlet for supply and withdrawal of initial raw material. Radiation source is made in form of pulse radiator in form of coaxial lamp with return conductor located coaxially in lamp. Liquid level gage is located in upper part of coaxial gap between chamber and lamp. Inlet and outlet are located at right angle to chamber axis in one vertical and made with cross-sections extending from pipe to size coinciding with the length of chamber radiated part. Capacitor storage is multisectional with section change-over switch. EFFECT: higher efficiency. 2 dwg
