AbstractThe purpose of this study was to investigate the controllable operating parameters influence, including pH, solid content, collector, co-collector, and depressant dose, and conditioning time, on apatite flotation kinetics. Four first order flotation kinetic models are tested on batch flotation time-recovery profiles. The results of batch flotation tests and the fitting of first-order ki...

The recovery and concentrate grade, used simultaneously, are the most widely accepted measures of assessing metallurgical performance. Meanwhile, new challenges are being found with more complex ores around the world, a new methodology to evaluate flotation circuits more accurately is used to keep the Mineral Industry afloat in a changing world by increasing revenues. The flotation process is d...

The modern development of the construction materials sector determines use rare earth metals (REM) for various purposes. In particular, REM are added as basic alloying elements into magnesium alloys to increase alloy durability and strength. complex systematic study structural components interaction basis phase state monitoring multicomponent oxide polyfunctional materials. addition, on prepara...

One possible way of recovering metals from spent lithium-ion batteries is to integrate the recycling with already existing metallurgical processes. This study continues our effort on integrating froth flotation and nickel-slag cleaning process for metal recovery (SBs), using anodic graphite as main reductant. The SBs used in this was a fraction industrially prepared black mass. effect different...

Flotation is the single most important method of mineral processing and is widely used for the concentration of metal ores, industrial minerals, and coals. Several investigations were carried out during the last century, and the flotation literature was immense, particularly on selective collectors and their interaction mechanisms on sulfide, oxide, and silicate minerals. However, it is often d...

Effective flotation of fine particles is a problem for mineral processing. In this paper, flocculant mostly used in heavy metal ion treatment was an arsenopyrite system. The adsorption behavior and performance PEI on the xanthate were investigated through zeta potential adsorbed amount measurements, XPS size distribution detections, micro-flotation tests. Zeta results showed that 40 mg/L polyet...

in this study, the possibility of producing coal with less than 11% ash from tailings of flotation process was investigated. the effect of six flotation parameters: collector type, collector consumption, frother type, frother consumption, pulp density and mixing rate were studied on a sample from a tailing dam. a software based experimental design approach (dx7) was applied to determine and mod...

Industrial and natural wastewater is one of the factors environmental pollution, in particular, its water basin. Among others, fuel oil pollutants are toxic substances that cause significant harm to all living things. It necessary create technologies using effective methods treatment solve such problems. possible properly select effectively use taking into account nature, condition concentratio...
