Quartz sand is considered an excellent abrasive, used for sandblasting and sanding and sawing grit. It is also used as a refractory lining for induction furnace, which is commonly known as silica ramming mass.

Quartz has many commercial applications, and therefore Quartz must undergo a careful, and an extensive process to ensure maximum product yield. Quartz Processing usually includes crushing, grinding, washing and screening. These steps strip off physically associated impurities and water-soluble impurities and give a relatively uniform and small particle size material for its future use.

Quartz Processing:

• Crushing & Grinding - Normally to reduce the big ore lumps to small particles, two to three stages crushing are required
• Scrubbing - Scrubbing refers to the removal of thin-film iron, bonding and muddy impurity minerals on the surface of quartz sand by mechanical force and the frictional force between sand grains, and further shredding the unassembled mineral aggregates
• Wet Screening - High capacity wet screening offers a wide range of sizing and classification tasks. Wet screening units are designed to screen out fines and classify oversize particles efficiently
• Sand Dewatering - Mineral must be clean to meet the users' specification. Dewatering screen technology delivers minerals that are ready for market straight from the belts
