Conclusions

  1. 1.

    The use of liquid metals as the separating medium in an MHD separator (MHDS) offers a new technical opportunity in the field of MHD separation.

  2. 2.

    The cost of construction of MHDS with liquid metals is less by factors of tens than that of MHDS with electrolytes.

  3. 3.

    The electrical energy consumption of MHDS with liquid metals and magnets is thousands of times lower than for MHDS with electrolytes.
