The idea of reverse flotation for coal started with the first patent done by Eveson in 1961 on bituminous coal in which shale i.e. the mineral matter was floated and reported in the froth phase while the clean coal was depressed and remained in the suspension. The concept was further developed for the selective removal of pyritic …

Both dextrin and HTAB dosages had a significant effect on reverse flotation behavior of coarse coals (−0.5 + 0.25 mm and −0.25 + 0.125 mm) but had a little effect on reverse flotation behavior of fine coals (−0.125 + 0.074 mm and −0.074 mm). Throughout this study, reverse flotation was found to be especially suitable for the upgrading ...

Fluorite (CaF2), as an important strategic mineral source, is usually separated from calcite by the common froth flotation method, but this separation is still not selective enough. The development of a selective collector and/or depressant is the key to achieving high selective separation. 1-Hydroxyethylidene-1,1-diphosphonic acid (HEDP or H4L) is …

The flotation test is carried out with three sequential reverse flotation processes. Chemicals were added in the order of pH adjuster, adjuster, and collector and stirred for 1–3 min.

Reverse flotation process is used to separate minerals im-purities as concentrate from valuable mineral as tailings. In our case, impurities are presented by mica, dolomite, barite, hematite, iron oxides and feldspar. In conventional flotation, the mineral particle values are hydrophobic while the gangue particles are hydrophilic. The

On the results of this independent evaluation Cape Lambert Chairman Mr Ian Burston said," The tests showed that by employing reverse flotation a worst case primary magnetite concentrate produced from the Cape Lambert resource assaying 63.1% Fe and 8.3% silica could be improved to 66.4% Fe and 4.8% silica, with greater than 91% Fe recovery."

The beneficiation of ultrafine coal by froth flotation is a widely used process, and its importance for the treatment of -0.1 mm coal has been appreciated of late in South African coal washing plants. A number of problems adversely affect the efficiency of this process, such as poor liberation, poor floatability, gangue entraiment/entrapment, and high mass …

A two-step flotation process has been developed to treat Dong Anshan iron ore by which siderite was removed in the first step floatation and in the second step, reverse anionic flotation was used ...

Flotation is one of the plausible methods for recovering borax fines from the hydrocyclone overflow discharged to the tailings dam in the Kirka borax processing plant. The previous studies, published by several authors cited above, have shown that a common problem encountered in all types of boron minerals is the presence of significant amounts ...

The example of ballotini flotation discussed in [18] showed that the efficiency of col-umn flotation of fine particles can be significantly improved by applying fine bubbles, when prior to feeding pulp into a flotation column, fine bubbles under certain conditions are allowed to interact with the particles.

Fluorite is a nonrenewable mineral used to produce anhydrous hydrofluoric acid (AHF) and aluminum fluoride. The demand for low-grade fluorite powder (CaF2 < 97%) has fallen sharply owing to the current market conditions. Therefore, a large number of fluorite concentrates have been improved by acid leaching. While this approach can …
