Abstract

A slurry of relatively fine kaolin particles (80% by weight smaller than 2&mgr;) is dewatered in a membrane filter press. The slurry is supplied to the filter press at a feed pressure not greater than 1.5 MPa and subsequently subjected to a membrane pressure which is not less than 0.5 MPa greater than the feed pressure. For example, the feed pressure may be approximately 1 or 1.2 MPa, and the membrane pressure may be in excess of 2.5 MPa, for example 3.0 MPa. The process achieves a dry final press cake which can be detached from the filter cloths, and subsequently handled, relatively easily.

The present invention provides an integrated process for treating an ore of a white inorganic mineral to produce a product having improved optical properties, said process comprising: a) providing said ore of a white inorganic mineral and physically separating the ore into a brighter fraction and a darker fraction, said darker fraction comprising discolouring impurities; b) dry crushing and/or grinding the brighter fraction; c) dry crushing and/or grinding the darker fraction and preparing an aqueous slurry of the resulting crushed and/or ground darker fraction; d) beneficiating the darker fraction obtained in (c) to remove at least some of the discolouring impurities; e) optionally, dewatering the beneficiated darker fraction obtained in (d); f) optionally combining at least a portion of the beneficiated darker fraction obtained in (d) or the dewatered beneficiated darker fraction obtained in (e) with at least a portion of the dry ground brighter fraction obtained in (b) to form said product having improved optical properties.
