Since flotation is a technology that takes advantage of the differences in surface properties between minerals to achieve the goal of mineral separation, the transformation will undoubtedly increase the difficulty of flotation separation.
The flotation separation of Cu-Fe sulfide minerals at low alkalinity can be achieved using selective depressants. In the flotation system of Cu-Fe sulfide minerals, depressants usually preferentially interact with the pyrite surface to render the mineral surface hydrophilic and hinder the adsorption of the collector. This review summarizes …
Froth flotation is a selective separation process to separate valuable materials (recyclables, minerals, and other fine-size waste) from unwanted materials (gangue) …
Froth flotation is a highly versatile method for physically separating particles based on differences in the ability of air bubbles to selectively adhere to specific mineral surfaces …
As opposed to settling, flotation is a solid–liquid separation technique that is applied to particles whose density is lower or has been made lower than the liquid they …
Although efficient flotation separation technologies for magnesium-containing minerals are well researched, related concepts are not yet clarified. Moreover, the industrial development of magnesium-containing mineral flotation technologies is limited by their low separation efficiency and environmental problems.
Flotation separation of carbonate minerals is difficult because of their similar surface properties. A variety of collectors and depressants have been previously used to improve their separation in acidic or alkaline media.
For industrial flotation image processing, accurate bubble size measurement and feature extraction are very important to optimize the flotation process and to improve the recovery of mineral resources. This paper presents an improved algorithm to investigate mineral flotation image segmentation for mineral …
According to the difference in physicochemical properties of mineral particle surfaces, flotation is the method that selectively enriches the target minerals in the pulp at the …
Reverse flotation of carbonate minerals from refractory gold-bearing sulfide ores requires the flotation of the carbonate minerals (calcite, dolomite, siderite, etc.) while depressing sulfide minerals and native gold. The flotation of carbonates can be achieved by anionic oxyhydryl collectors and this has been well established.
In froth flotation, the mineral surface plays an important role in the process of reagent adsorption, which determines the geometry and strength of adsorption, and the …
This separation can be done either physically, via gravity separation, electrostatic separation, and magnetic separation, or chemically, using froth flotation, leaching, and electrowinning. Unusable minerals, which are often discarded into dams, are called tailing.
The Inco Bessemer Matte Processing Plant (IBMPP) suffers a loss of chalcocite selectivity in flotation separation from heazlewoodite down the rougher …
In the current study, laboratory batch flotation separation tests were conducted on lead–zinc ore that contained carbonaceous minerals. The flotation process was optimized, and the flotation results were compared before and after decarbonization. Then, the characterisation and adsorption properties of carbonaceous materials were …
Copper oxide minerals are important copper resources, which include malachite, azurite, chrysocolla, cuprite, etc. Flotation is the most widely used method for the enrichment of copper oxide minerals in the mineral processing industry.
Due to the strong hydration of lead–zinc oxide minerals and the easy dissolution of metal ions on the surface, the flotation separation of lead–zinc oxide ores remains a major challenge to date. Therefore, sulfidation reconstruction of oxidized lead–zinc minerals prior to flotation is crucial for altering their surface properties.
This is a material which can be processed by flotation and acid-leaching methods. Owing to the similarities in the physicochemical and surface chemistry of the constituent minerals, separation of zinc oxide minerals from their gangues by flotation is an extremely complex process.
The flotation of galena, chalcopyrite, and sphalerite has been studied singly and as mixtures in the absence of collector by Eh control.It is shown th…
In ore/mineral beneficiation, froth flotation is a method by which commercially important minerals are separated from impurities and other minerals by collecting them on the surface of a froth layer. Flotation is the process of separation of beneficial minerals from a mixture by creating froth on which minerals separate out.
In order to further investigate the effect of citric acid on the flotation behavior of minerals, the fluorite-barite binary mixed ore was prepared in a ratio of 1:1, and the pH value and the amount of citric acid were used for reverse flotation separation of fluorite-barite binary artificial mixed ore.
According to the difference in physicochemical properties of mineral particle surfaces, flotation is the method that selectively enriches the target minerals in the pulp at the gas-liquid interface and separates them from the pulp, thus realizing the mineral separation.
In this study, selective adsorption mechanism of zinc ions on the surfaces of galena and sphalerite in the flotation separation of Pb-Zn was comprehensively explored by flotation tests, Zeta potential measurements, Fourier transform interferometric radiometer (FTIR) spectroscopy, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) analysis, and …
Separation effects of sodium polyacrylate (PAAS) and gum Arabic (GA) on flotation of chalcopyrite and magnesium silicate minerals using potassium butyl xanthate (PBX) as collector were ...
This paper describes the flotation separation of naturally hydrophobic coal particles and hydrophilic quartz particles in water (free of any reagents)…
Froth flotation is a selective separation process to separate valuable materials (recyclables, minerals, and other fine-size waste) from unwanted materials (gangue) using air bubbles in a general floatation tank, Jameson flotation cell, or flotation column.
The selective inhibition mechanism of tannin and humate sodium on calcite was studied by means of actual ore flotation test, single mineral flotation test, Zeta potential measurement and FT-IR ...
The flotation results showed that collector with more nitrogen atoms (DPTZ) offered better selectivity for the flotation separation of galena from a galena/sphalerite mixed mineral system. Separation selectivity, FTIR and XPS studies showed, in the case that collector solution environment pH value < pK a value, N atoms did not participate in ...
Flotation, in mineral processing, method used to separate and concentrate ores by altering their surfaces to a hydrophobic or hydrophilic condition—that is, the surfaces are either repelled or attracted by water. The flotation process was developed on a commercial …
