The use of heavy media separation processes in the treatment of coal            and oil shale, in the concentration of mineral ores, and in the                 reprocessing of municipal solid waste and industrial scrap is                   significant today, and its use is expected to increase greatly in the           future.  However, fundamental research at American universities in this         important process has been practically zero.  Most of the advances in           the past 50 years have come from applied research and development in            the industrial sector.  An experimental research program in 'Heavy              Media Separations' with some analysis and model building is being               conducted.  Since its greatest potential is as a pre-concentration              step, the goals of this research are to:  increase the ability of the           process to separate particles with only a specific gravity difference           of 0.02 and improve the process by minimizing misplaced particles.
