The$following$set$of$equilibrium$data$was$obtained$for$the$product$of$separation
of$hematite$from$sand$using$a$semibatch7operating$magnetic$separator:

The$estimated$values$of$k1$are$0,1$and$0,2$1/(T$s)$for$sand$and$hematite,
respectively.

If$200$kg$of$mineral$containing$50%$hematite$are$fed$to$the$separator:
$7$What$is$the$set7point$necessary$to$achieve$at$least$80%$recovery$of$valuables
if$the$residence$time$in$your$separator$is$2$min?
$7$If$you$were$asked$to$produce$a$concentrate$with$at$least$90%$hematite$grade:
What$residence$time$would$you$use?$
What$would$be$your$recovery$in$this$case?
