High-Efficiency Chrome Wash Plant

Advanced chrome processing solutions with Maximize recovery rates

Chrome Wash Plant

A chrome wash plant is a complete mineral processing system designed to separate and upgrade chromium ores through washing, screening, and gravity separation methods. Maximize your chrome recovery rate with JXSC’s state-of-the-art washing process & equipment designed for efficiency, sustainability, and high yield chrome washing plants.

What is Chrome Wash Plant?

A chrome wash plant is specialized processing equipment designed to extract and recover chromite minerals from raw ore. These plants use various physical separation techniques to upgrade chrome ore by removing impurities and increasing chromite content. Our modular systems are adaptable to various operational requirements.

Key Process of Our Chrome Wash Plants

  • Feed Preparation System – Efficient scrubbing and screening of raw material.
  • Gravity Separation Units – Spiral separators, jigs, and shaking tables for maximum recovery.
  • Water Management System – Advanced recycling for minimal water consumption.
  • Product Handling – Efficient dewatering and stockpiling systems.

JXSC wash plants can beneficiate various types of chrome ore, including laterite, alluvial, and hard rock deposits.

Chrome Wash Plant Process Flow

JXSC chrome wash plants incorporate the latest advancements in mineral processing technology to deliver superior results. Our comprehensive mining washing system ensures maximum chrome recovery through these optimized stages:

1. Feed Preparation

Raw ore is fed into the plant and undergoes initial screening to remove oversize material and ensure consistent feed size for optimal processing.

2. Primary Chrome Washing

Rotary scrubbers/ trommel screen break down clay and other binding materials, liberating chrome particles for efficient washing & separation.

3. Particle Size Classification

Vibrating screens separate material into different size fractions for targeted processing based on particle characteristics.

4. Gravity Separation

Spiral chutes and jig concentrators separate chrome from gangue material based on specific gravity differences.

5. Fine Chrome Recovery

Specialized shaking tables and magnetic separators recover fine chrome particles missed in primary separation.

6. Water Recycling

Thickener + filter press system achieves 85% water recovery; Dry stack tailings processing meets environmental standards.

chrome wash plant Solutions

JXSC provides various types of alluvial/ rock chrome processing plants. Small to large processing capacity can be designed according to your ore information and needs. All can be configured with standard mining equipment that offers low cost and high recovery rates.

Ore → Crushing (optional) → Screening → Washing → Gravity Separation → Dewatering → Finished Product

1. Alluvial/Placer Chrome Washing Plant Solution (Primarily Desliming and Gravity Separation)

  • Process: Ore → Feeding → Trommel scrubber/Spiral washer (desliming) → Vibrating screen (classification) → Jig concentrator (roughing separation) → Spiral chute/shaking table (Concentration) → Magnetic separation upgrading (Optional) → Thickening and dehydration → concentrate.

2. Rock-Type Chrome Processing Solution (Crushing + Grinding + Sorting)

  • Process: Ore→ Feeding → Jaw crusher (coarse crushing) → Cone crusher/Hammer crusher (fine crushing) → Ball mill (with spiral classifier) → Trommel screen/ vibrating screen (washing & classification) → Shaking table/spiral chute (sorting) → Magnetic separation (purification) → Concentration and filter press → Drying.

Whether it is the efficient desludging of small alluvial sand mines or the deep processing of large complex rock mines, JXSC can help customers achieve efficient and environmentally friendly chrome ore purification goals through a full chain of services, including “ore testing – process design – equipment implementation – capacity optimization“.

Core Equipment for chrome wash plant

With over 40 years of experience in chrome mineral processing equipment manufacturing, including chrome washers, spiral chutes, and shaker tables, etc. JXSC offers the industry’s best-selling products at the most affordable prices.

  • Jaw crusher: Used for coarse crushing of large chromium ore.
  • Cone crusher/impact crusher/hammer crusher: Provides secondary crushing, improving subsequent ore washing efficiency.
  • Double Roller Crusher: Finely crushes chromite to a size suitable for washing.
  • Ball mill: Rock-type chromium ore needs to be ground to a fineness of -200 mesh 60% to provide qualified particle size for subsequent sorting.
  • Spiral washer: Removes clay and surface impurities, suitable for ores with medium adhesion.
  • Rotary scrubber: Separates ore from clay through rotary friction, suitable for ores with high clay content.
  • Trommel screen: Used for cleaning minerals containing very little slime impurities; coarse particle screening + flushing to reduce clogging.
  • Trough washer: Uses high-pressure water flow to remove stubborn impurities.

Vibrating screen and trommel screen: Classify by particle size (e.g., 0-5mm, 5-30mm, and above 30mm) and complement the washing process.

  • Gravity separation-Jig separators, spiral chute and shaker tables: Separate chromite from gangue minerals (e.g., serpentine) to improve grade.
  • Magnetic separators: Utilize the weak magnetic properties of chromite to remove iron-containing impurities further and improve the Cr/Fe ratio (suitable for applications requiring high grade).
  • Flotation cells (auxiliary): Used for some low-grade or complex ores, they use reagents to adjust the mineral surface properties and separate gangue minerals.

Dewatering screens, thickener, and plate filter press: Reduce the moisture content of cleaned ore, making it easier to transport.

Feeders (vibrating/plate type), conveyors (belt/screw), and slurry handling systems (thickening tanks and filter presses).

JXSC supplies various chrome processing solutions based on the ore type (alluvial/placer/rock ore/laterite ore), impurity characteristics, processing scale, processing goals (grade improvement, impurity removal), buget, and other conditions!
