ST Equipment Technology manufactures a
Tribo-electrostatic Mineral Separator that
provides a high rate, continuous and completely
dry method to beneficiate minerals and metals
across a broad range of particle sizes (from
relatively coarse at 600 microns to very fine,
1-2 microns).

Key Benefits of ST Equipment Technologys
Separators
  • Water-Free separation
  • Environmentally friendly
  • Low energy consumption
  • High capacity up to 40 tons per hour
  • Compact Machine easy to fit within process
    layouts
  • Easy to permit
  • A wide range of particle sizes
  • A broad range of materials
  • Automated
  • Low maintenance
  • Fully commercialized, with more than 20 years of
    experience in powder processing

  • The STET dry electrostatic separation process
    offers many advantages over traditional wet
    processing methods, such as magnetics or
    flotation, including
  • No water consumption The elimination of water
    also eliminates pumping, thickening and drying,
    as well as any costs and risks associated with
    water treatment and disposal.
  • No wet tailings disposal Recent high-profile
    failures of tailings dams have highlighted the
    long term risk of storing wet tailings. By
    necessity, minerals processing operations produce
    tailings of some sort, but the STET electrostatic
    separator tailings are free of water and
    chemicals. This allows for easier beneficial
    re-use of the tailings. Tailings that do need to
    be stored can be mixed with a small volume of
    water for dust control.
  • No chemical addition required Flotation
    chemicals are an ongoing operating expense for
    mineral processing operations.
  • Suitable for processing fine powders. Desliming
    may not be required depending on ore mineralogy
    and grade.
  • Lower investment cost (CAPEX) and lower operating
    cost (OPEX).
  • Ease of permitting due to minimize environmental
    impact, elimination of water treatment.

bauxite beneficiation
  • Bauxite is a sedimentary rock and consists mostly
    of the aluminium minerals gibbsite (Al(OH)3),
    boehmite (?-AlO(OH)) and diaspore (a-AlO(OH)),
    and is usually mixed with the two iron oxides
    goethite and hematite, the aluminium clay mineral
    kaolinite and small amounts of anatase (TiO2)
    and/or ilmenite (FeTiO3).
  • dry processing with the STET separator offers
    opportunities to generate value for bauxite
    producers and refiners. The pre-processing of
    bauxite prior to refining will reduce chemical
    costs, lower the volume of red mud generated and
    minimize process upsets.

6
limestone beneficiation
  • cement manufacturers may need to purchase sources
    of limestone or other supplemental raw materials
    to achieve the desired raw mix quality. 
  • The STET separator has been proven in removing
    silicates and other contaminants from cement rock
    limestone prior to calcination, to extend the
    life and maximize recovery from cement rock
    deposits.

7
Iron Ore Beneficiation
  • Dry processing of iron ore presents an
    opportunity to eliminate costs and wet tailings
    generation associated with flotation and wet
    magnetic separation circuits. STET has evaluated
    several iron ore tailings and run of mine ore
    samples at bench scale (pre-feasibility scale).
