Popis:	Continuous shape separations were carried out in a horizontal flowing wet settler having three-dimensional separation field. The settler was developed by us to increase the throughput in the shape separation. Feed mixtures M1 and (M2, M3) of spherical and irregularly-shaped non-spherical particles were prepared by two kinds of screening methods, i.e., one-step and two-step screenings. It was experimentally confirmed that higher Newton's separation efficiencies η were obtained under two-step separations using the feed mixtures (M2, M3) rather than one-step separations using the mixture M1. It was theoretically confirmed from the investigation based on an idealized horizontal flowing settler that the more effective separations can be performed under the conditions of the higher the liquid flow rate Q and the smaller the width of sampling section Δx.
