Ex. 2.

It is desired to separate 1000 kg of a mixture of crushed solids into three fractions, a coarse fraction retained on a 20 me
passing through a20 mesh screen and retained on a 65 mesh screen; and a fine fraction passing through a 65 mesh screen.
Two Tyler Standard Screens are used to remove particles 20/65.
Screen analysis of the feed, coarse, medium and fine fractions are given.
What are the effectiveness of the 20 and 65 screens, given the following screen analysis.
