DEFINISI

Screening
Screening is generally carried out on relatively

coarse material, as the efficiency decreases rapidly

with fineness. Screening is generally limited to
materials above about 250 microns in size, finer
sizing normally being undertaken by classification.

CLASSIFICATION
Classification: Classification is defined as a method of

separating mixtures of mineral particles into two or more

products according to their settling velocities in water, in
air or in other fluids as given in below figure. Industrial
classification may be carried out in different types of
classifiers and these classifiers are; hydraulic classifiers,
mechanical classifiers and cyclones. Basically they all work
according to the principle that the particles are suspended
in water which has a slight upward movement relative to
the particles. Particles below a certain size and density are
carried away with the water-flow, whereas the coarser and
heavier particles will settle.

CLASSIFIER
DRAG classifier : A continuous belt containing

transverse rakes, used to separate coarse sand from

fine; the belt moves up through an inclined trough,
and fast-settling sands are dragged along by the
rakes. (

Neraca fraksi oversize:

F . f A.a B.b
Neraca fraksi undersize:

F 1 f A 1 a B (1 b)

Keterangan:
f = fraksi oversize di dalam umpan
a = fraksi oversize di dalam produk kasar
b = fraksi oversize di dalam produk halus

Diketahui data:

UKURAN PEMISAH 100 MESH

Fraksi oversize di overflow (halus) = 2,32%
Fraksi oversize di underflow (kasar) = 93,58%
Fraksi oversize di umpan classifier = 49,5%
Tonase umpan = 100 ton
Tonase produk halus = 48,3 ton
Tonase produk kasar = 51,7 ton
