Eddy-current separation is most often method used for the recovery
of non-ferrous metals (Al, Cu, Zn, Pb) from solid wastes and also for
separating non-ferrous metals from each other. The feed material comes to
rotary drum and magnetic field by belt conveyer. The changing magnetic
field induce eddy currents in conductive (metallic) particles. Because
interaction between this currents and the magnetic field electrodynamic
forces will act on conductive particles. Therefore the trajectories of
conductive particles will be different from the trajectories of the non-
conductive ones. Separation is a result of the combined actions of several
forces (electrodynamic, gravitational and frictional).
