Processing of materials that originated from tailings industrial plants (with a wide range particle size distribution, “PSD”) without grinding has several advantages since mines are faced with lot pressure to minimize their environmental impacts. This article indicates the introduction submicron bubbles (known as nanobubbles, “NBs”) conventional flotation could improve separation efficiency val...

The present study investigates the optimization and advanced simulation of flotation process coarse particles (–425 + 106) using micro-nanobubbles (MNBs). For this purpose, experiments in presence absence MNBs were performed on quartz particles, results statistically analyzed. Methyl isobutyl carbinol (MIBC) was employed as a frother for generating through hydrodynamic cavitation. significance ...

Tabas mines in Iran have coal sources which are suitable for use in metallurgy industries as coking coal. But the high sulfur content of this coal imposes severe limitations on its utilization as the sulfur oxide gases evolved from the combustion of high sulfur coals result in acid rains and corrosion of equipments. In this work, attempts have been made to reduce sulfur from high sulfur coa...

Flotation using cationic surfactants has been investigated as a rapid separation technique to dewater clinoptilolite ion exchange resins, for the decontamination of radioactive cesium ions (Cs+) from nuclear waste effluent. Initial kinetic and equilibrium adsorption studies cesium, suggested large surface area volume ratio fine zeolite contributed fast kinetics high capacities (qc = 158.3 mg/g)...
