Dissolved air flotation (DAF) is an efficient process to remove impurities from fresh or salt water. As the removal is based on the agglomeration of impurities on the generated microbubbles, the size distribution and concentration of air bubbles are key parameters in dissolved air flotation. However …

on barite concentration by flotation. This study primarily aimed to obtain a barite concentrate with a minimum 90% BaSO 4 requirement of the market by concentrating on a barite tailing by flotation. For this purpose, first, laboratory-scale flotation tests were carried out to determine the effects of some operating parameters on the rougher
This technique is predominantly used in parasitology laboratories. By exploiting the density of the parasites, particularly eggs, it allows the parasites to float to the top of a dense solution (final specific gravity of about 1.20) and can then be skimmed from the top of the tube.. The most commonly used reagent is zinc sulphate.Operculated eggs as well as schistosoma and infertile …
Agitation with anionic collectors, followed by flotation, will often result in satisfactory spodumene concentration when the spodumene is to be floated. Oleic acids and soaps work well in neutral and slightly alkaline pulps, while naphthenic acids, sulphonated castor oil, etc., work best in an acid pulp.
During single mineral flotation, a CMC concentration of 10 mg/L and a pH value of 7 were used, and the recovery difference between rutile and chlorite was 88.39 %. The most effective concentration of CMC for the artificially mixed ore test was 15 mg/L, resulting in rutile recoveries and grades of 87.78 % and 75.28 % respectively. •

particles concentration (unhindered flotation assumption); 2) Once a particle deposits on a bubble, it will not detach again (no-detachment assumption); 3) Particles aggregation is disregarded;
The major losses of Pt occur largely in mining (i.e. open pit or underground), accounting for about 27 – 28% before processing and the mineral concentration stages where 13 – 20% value loss occur to the tailings during flotation concentration (Ndlovu 2015). Value loss along the smelter and conversion stages is about ∼ 1%.
The technology of concentration of the sulfide antimony-arsenic gold-bearing ore containing 3.6 g/tn Au, 0.3% Sb, and 0.4% As is developed. This technology implies the flotation separation of antimonite and arsenopyrite into separate products and allows them to perform in various cycles, increasing production efficiency due to a decrease in consumption of sulfuric …

The flotation process for the concentration of ores is a method by means of which one or more of the minerals in the ore (usually the valuable ones) are picked up by means of a liquid film and floated at the surface of a mass of fluid pulp. Here they are separated from the other minerals, which remain immersed in the body of the pulp. In general, the minerals which …

In the present work, the effects of sodium hydroxide and sodium carbonate on surface properties and flotation behavior of spodumene were systematically studied by means of flotation tests, contact angle, XPS and SEM meassurments. The role of surface dissolution in the flotation concentration of a spodumene ore was also investigated.
The opposite happens with decreasing frother concentration and gas hold-up. Therefore, as frother concentration-changes occur below the CCC, there is a significant change in flotation kinetics. The x-axis (gas hold-up) can be thought of as the 'gas pedal' in flotation and will reflect the combined influences of both frother and air rate.
