Abstract: Novel ether thionocarbamates, O-butoxy isopropyl-N-ethoxycarbonyl thionocarbamate (BIPECTC) and O-(2-butoxy-1-methylethoxy) isopropyl-N-ethoxycarbonyl thionocarbamate (BMIPECTC), were synthesized in this study. Their collecting efficiencies in the flotation of chalcopyrite were investigated using flotation tests, adsorption measurements, ultraviolet spectra (UV) and Fourier transform-...

Rare earth minerals (REMs) contain rare elements (REEs) that are important in modern technologies due to their unique magnetic, phosphorescent, and catalytic properties. However, REMs not only non-renewable resources but also non-uniformly distributed on the Earth’s crust, so processing of REE-bearing secondary via recycling is one potential route ensure long-term sustainability REE supply. Flo...

Ion flotation is an efficient separation technique for the recovery of metal ions from dilute aqueous solutions. Provided that both collected and surfactant are recovered foam phase, it could be considered as alternative to ion exchange, adsorption or solvent extraction in hydrometallurgy. However, most studies focusing only on by neglect development a closed-loop flow sheet with regeneration c...

partially replace oil and natural gas as fuel sources. Of all the coal-cleaning pmesses, flotation is one. of the most versatile. Carbon dioxide coal flotation is a new technology developed at the University of Utah.(l) Compared with conventional flotation, carbon dioxide flotation enhances the ash rejection and increases flotation recovery for coals of different rank with the exception of lign...

An attempt has been made to beneficiate the Indian coking coal fines by a combination of Spiral, flotation and Oleo Flotation processes. Beneficiation studies were also carried out on 0.5mm coal fines using flotation and oleo flotation by splitting at size 0.063mm.Size fraction of 0.5mm-0.063mm and -0.063mm size were treated in flotation and Oleo flotation respectively. The washability studies ...

The development of froth flotation is traced from its earliest-known use through the discoveries leading to the present knowledge of the science. The factors influencing the flotation of non-sulfide and non-metallic minerals are discussed, and the machines used in commercial flotation operations are described. Experimental work on the flotation beneficiation of phosphate rock is presented as an...

The present work investigates the conjugation of flotation and photo-Fenton techniques on oil removal performance from oilfield produced water. The experiments were conducted in a column flotation and annular lamp reactor for induced air flotation and photodegradation steps, respectively. A nonionic surfactant was used as a flotation agent. The flotation experimental data were analyzed in terms...

1-hydroxydodecylidene-1,1-diphosphonic acid (HDDPA) was prepared and first applied in flotation of hemimorphite. HDDPA exhibited superior flotation performances for recovery of hemimorphite in comparison with lauric acid, and it also possessed good selectivity against quartz flotation under pH 7.0–11.0. Contact angle results revealed that HDDPA preferred to attach on hemimorphite rather than qu...
