The rotary scrubber is an autogenous rotating drum scrubber, utilizing pebbles and rocks within The feed source to fracture and disintegrate clays, Agglomerates and soft oxides. The scrubber spins slowly, similar to a giant washing machine. It churns The fines and oversize and water together, Vigorously breaking up the soil matrix as well as liberating the target mineral from tough clay, schist 's and rock. Disintegrated material is homogeneously slurried within the drum,Whilst the autogenous load is retained within the drum by reverse flights located at the drum discharge end, Slurry and washed oversize overflows the drum discharge throat to the concentric exitTrommels. This material is then passed on to the downstream process equipment which can be in various forms to the as centrifugal Concentrator, spiral chute, jig etc.
The slurry material feeds into the drum where it is vigorously scrubbed, the soil matrix is broken up and the taaarget mineral is released. The material is then screened through the rotating screen and waste is ejected. The screened material is then passed on to the concentrating modules for upgrading.
