Abstract
Separating complicated linked fluorite and calcium-containing gangue minerals efficiently is challenging with a standard oleate (NaOL) collector due to its limited selectivity and flexibility. In order to improve the efficiency of separating fluorite ore through flotation, a new collector called (E)-N-(2-hydroxyethyl)octadec-9-enamide (NOE) was created and compared to the standard collector sodium oleate (NaOL). The experimental results indicate that the optimal pH for flotation is 9, while the optimal dosages of NOE and NaOL are 150 g/t and 300 g/t, respectively. During bench-scale flotation studies, the use of a novel collector (NOE) at half the dose of the usual collector NaOL (175 g/t compared to 350 g/t) resulted in a 9.15 % improvement in the recovery of fluorite.
期刊介绍:
The purpose of the journal is to provide for the rapid publication of topical papers featuring the latest developments in the allied fields of mineral processing and extractive metallurgy. Its wide ranging coverage of research and practical (operating) topics includes physical separation methods, such as comminution, flotation concentration and dewatering, chemical methods such as bio-, hydro-, and electro-metallurgy, analytical techniques, process control, simulation and instrumentation, and mineralogical aspects of processing. Environmental issues, particularly those pertaining to sustainable development, will also be strongly covered.
