Non-magnetic particles are bound in the floe internal structure by means of magnetic, surface and mechanical forces which leads to the deterioration of enrichment results. The intensity of flocculation depends on magnetic field intensity, content of the magnetic component in the feed and ore feed rate. The above mentioned factors affect the enrichment results. The paper presents the separation analysis in the band magnetic separator with respect to the magnetic field distribution in the separator working space as well as internal and external mechanical forces, acting on the particle. The author determined the effect of the magnetic compound content in the feed and the amount of washing water on the recovery of this component in the concentrate as well as the effect of the magnetic component content in the feed and the magnetic force density on the residue of the non-magnetic component in the concentrate. The analysis was performed according to the physical model of magnetic separation, presented in the paper. The theoretical dependences, derived from this model, are in good agreement with the results of empirical research, found in the literature.}, type={Article}, title={Separation Analysis in the Band Magnetic Separator}, URL={http://czasopisma.pan.pl/Content/131693/PDF-MASTER/11_METALLURGY_48_3_2003_Brozek_SEPARATION.pdf}, }
