Opis:
The effect of air rate and froth depth on the entrainment factor in flotation has been extensively studied, but further investigation on the underlying mechanism for their effect is still required. In this study, flotation tests were performed at different air rates and froth depths in a 3 $dm^3$ continuously operated cell using an artificial copper ore. The results showed that entrainment factor was affected by both air rate and froth depth, and the combined effect of these variables on entrainment factor depended strongly on the particle size. The entrainment factor increased with either increasing air rate at a relatively shallow froth or decreasing froth depth at a relatively high air rate. At a very low air rate and deep froth, higher entrainment factor was observed for mid-size and coarse particles. When the entrainment factor was correlated to the effective liquid velocity at the pulp/froth interface, the results indicated that multiple mechanisms were responsible for the effect on entrainment factor. At a relatively high air rate and shallow froth depth, entrainment factor had a linear relationship with the interface effective liquid velocity, suggesting that drag force dominated the change in the entrainment factor when air rate and froth depth were varied. At a very low air rate and deep froth, the entrainment factor for fine particles was found to correlate strongly with the interface effective liquid velocity, while the entrapment of solid particles may be the main reason for the high entrainment factor for mid-size and coarse particles under this condition.

Opis:
The pulp-froth interface position is important from a metallurgical point of view because it determines the relative importance of the cleaning and the collection zones. The pulp-froth interface position is measured based on variations of specific gravity, temperature or conductivity between the two zones to locate the pulp froth interface position. In this study, the pressure measurements are used to calculate the values of the froth layer height. These two meters are installed in the upper part of the column at 1.4 m and 2.4 m respectively, from the top of the column. Methods using pressure gauges are commonly used in industrial operations Even though their accuracy is limited (due to assumptions of uniformity of the pulp and froth density), and they always have some error. In the Sarcheshmeh copper industrial plant (Iran), a float was installed near the column with 2.5 m height that was calibrated to 5 cm intervals in order to determine the more exact forth height and compare it with the recorded froth height in control room. In this paper, an algorithm based on Kalman Filter is presented to predict on-line froth height errors using two pressure gauges. This research is based on the industrial real data collection for evaluating the performance of the presented algorithm. The quality of the obtained results was very satisfied. The RMS errors of prediction froth height errors was less than 0.025 m.

Opis:
Frothing performance and stability of sodium oleate (NaOL) alone and in presence of methyl isobutyl methanol (MIBC), octanol (OCT) and polyethylene glycol (PEG) systems were studied and compared in order to enhance flotation separation of diasporic bauxite ore. Performance of a single (NaOL) and mixed systems (NaOL-MIBC, NaOL-OCT, NaOL-PEG) was evaluated through flotation tests, three-phase dynamic froth stability tests, zeta potential measurements and adsorption analysis. The mixed systems showed a stable froth and an improved recovery with their descending order NaOLPEG˃NaOL-OCT ˃ NaOL-MIBC. Adsorption analysis and zeta potential measurements suggested that, except NaOL adsorption, there was no significant co-adsorption of alcohols on the diaspore surface. However, adsorbed amount of NaOL on the diaspore surface was extremely high; accounts for more than 90% of the total substance used in the pulp.

Opis:
During flotation, fine gangue minerals can enter the concentrate through mechanical entrainment, which seriously affects the quality of concentrate. In this work, the effect of sodium carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) on the flotation performance of zoisite, a silicate mineral, was studied. The role of CMC in reducing zoisite entrainment was investigated by dynamic foaming tests, surface tension measurements, rheology measurements, sedimentation tests, and optical microscopy experiments. The flotation results showed that zoisite mainly entered the concentrate by entrainment; the addition of low dosages of CMC decreased zoisite entrainment and efficiently separated cassiterite from zoisite; moreover, the concentrate grade and recovery of SnO2 increased by 1.27 % and 5.63 %, respectively, by using CMC in closed-circuit flotation tests. Dynamic foaming studies on the two-phase and three-phase foam/froth revealed that the presence of CMC decreased the froth ability and froth stability, and greatly altered the three-phase froth structure. Basically, the bubbles in the foam were larger after adding CMC. For the two-phase foam, the change of foam property had little to do with surface activity and bulk viscosity. For the three-phase froth, the froth property was strongly affected by the interaction of CMC and zoisite. The results of the sedimentation test and microscopy experiment demonstrated that CMC can cause zoisite to flocculate and enlarge the particle size, which was the main reason for the decrease of froth stability and entrainment. This study indicates that the side effects of depressants should not be overlooked when discussing the role of depressants in flotation.

Opis:
Gas holdup and froth height in the presence of dodecylamine (DDA, pKa = 10.63) are reported at three pH values. The results revealed a strong time effect for DDA: stability was reached at pH 3; not at natural pH, for example, gas holdup declining to the water only value; and at pH 11, while stability was reached quickly gas holdup was now less than in water alone indicating coalescence. In the first two cases, the time effect is attributed to loss of amine from the system as molecular amine, observed at natural pH as precipitates on the column wall. An argument for precipitation at pH < pKa is presented. At pH 11, coalescence is attributed to the oily nature of the molecular amine present as colloidal aggregates. Noting a difference in literature steady state gas holdup data at natural pH, it is speculated that varying steady states can be reached that corresponds to different levels of amine loss.

Opis:
Separation of naturally hydrophobic particles, such as coal, by flotation is known to be enhanced with the addition of salt solutions into the system. In this study, the flotation of bituminous coal in the presence of NaCl, KCl, CaCl2 and MgCl2 without use of any flotation chemicals was investigated in detailed. In addition, zeta potential and foam stability tests were performed. The results from this study showed that the flotation behaviour of coal was influenced by these dissolved salts, and determined by the specific effect of these ions, while MgCl2 and KCl solutions showed the highest and the lowest flotation performance improvements, respectively. The ash content of the products also increased with the salt concentration. This can be attributed to the entrainment of the ash minerals in the salt solutions, particularly at higher salt concentrations. Meanwhile, the froth stability tests at 1 M salt concentration also indicated that there is a correlation between the flotation recovery and stability profile of the froth. These results also clearly indicated that Na+, K+, Ca2+, Mg2+ ions have a strong ion specific effect on the flotation recovery of the coal particles, and there is an optimum salt concentration to produce a clean coal in these salt solutions.

Opis:
The main purpose of the froth zone in flotation is to transport all the valuable particles from the pulp zone into the concentrate. However, in practice, a complete recovery of these particles is rarely achieved since some of them are detachment from the bubbles and return to the pulp zone. While this is an important topic in the mineral flotation industry, the previously published papers are mainly limited to small laboratory scales. Therefore, this study aimed to examine the effect of two main flotation variables (air flowrate and froth depth) on the flotation of iron ore in a 10 m3 industrial scale cell. It was found that, when the air flowrate increased from 45 to 146 m3/h, the velocity of the bubble coalescence also increased. In addition, when the froth depth increased from 5 to 30 cm, the product grade showed on average 2 unit increase (for instance, from 12% to 14%) due to the detachment of particles and liquid drainage. It was also found that the flotation concentrates recovery decreased with the increasing froth depth and air flowrate.

Opis:
To improve the performance of sodium silicate in scheelite flotation and allow the selective separation of scheelite from other semi-soluble salt-type minerals such as calcite, three acids, sulfuric, oxalic and for the first time hydrochloric are used to acidify sodium silicate (also called water glass). A literature review of previous usage of acidified water glass shows that no comparison between acids was made before, that comparisons with alkaline water glass were limited and that the idea that acidified water glass is more efficient at lower dosages has not been proven in scheelite flotation. As a consequence, the impact of the acid type, the ratio between acid and sodium silicate and acid dosage is tested in single mineral flotation and batch flotation experiments. All three acids allow a higher performance of acidified water glass compared to alkaline water glass at lower dosages and with little addition of acid: the tungsten recovery and grade are improved while silicates and to a lesser extent calcium-bearing minerals float less. The dosage of acid is less determining than the mass ratio of the acid to sodium silicate, except in the case of hydrochloric acid. Overall, the acid type does not matter as all three acids perform well in flotation, whereby oxalic and hydrochloric acid are better.

Depressant behavior
Opis:
Polysaccharide depressants play a crucial role in the flotation of sulfidic PGM bearing ores as they prevent naturally floatable gangue (NFG) from reporting to the concentrate. This action is regarded as critically important because less dilution of the concentrate means lower costs for downstream processes. However, abnormal water conditions such as high concentrations of ions in the flotation system can modify the selectivity of these depressants. It is well known that the existence of selected electrolytes in water can alter the behaviour of some polysaccharide depressants by enhancing their adsorption onto gangue minerals and thereby prevent naturally floatable gangue from moving into the froth phase. Concurrently these same electrolytes may enhance frothability owing to their stabilising effect on the bubbles within the system. Plant water at various ionic strengths was investigated against sodium carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) dosages in order to understand electrolyte-depressant interactive effects during the flotation of a Merensky ore in a batch flotation cell, using entrainment, rate of NFG recovery, and total gangue recovery as proxies. The study showed that the NFG recovery per unit mass of water decreased with increasing ionic strength at all CMC dosages, however the total amount of gangue reporting to the concentrate increased with increasing ionic strength at all CMC dosages. Thus, this paper considers the effects of both ionic strength and CMC dosage within flotation. It further investigates whether any interactive effects exist between froth stability and entrainment when considered simultaneously.

In previous study, the promising results of separating enargite from non-arsenic copper sulfides were obtained using selective surface oxidation in pure mineral systems. However, this technology was not well understood in real ores or concentrates. In this study, the flotation separation of enargite from complex copper concentrates by selective surface oxidation was investigated. The effects of regrinding, pulp pH, NaClO concentration, conditioning time and flotation time on separation of enargite from NECu minerals were studied. The mineralogical characteristics of the flotation feed and products were showed as an instructive tool to understand the separation results. According to the results of EDTA extraction, the possible mechanism for separation of enargite from NECu minerals is that enargite is more resistant to oxidized compared to NECu minerals. The following order for the oxidation of NECu minerals and enargite is obtained: chalcopyrite (chalcocite, digenite)> enargite (covellite).

Opis:
The interaction of inorganic electrolytes with reagents in the flotation of sulphidic PGM bearing ores is not well explored. It has been shown that specific inorganic electrolytes such as Ca2+ and SO42- can affect the wettability of gangue minerals. These could also hinder the adsorption of collectors onto valuable minerals and concurrently enhance or retard froth stability. This presents a challenge as regards understanding what the overarching or controlling mechanisms of interaction between electrolytes, reagents and minerals are as well as predicting how flotation performance will be affected. This review shows that studies in literature have simplified the question of electrolyte-reagent-mineral interactions and that current approaches have not provided fundamental solutions to the challenge of water quality. It is proposed that the complexity of the flotation system requires an in-depth knowledge of the individual electrolyte-reagent-mineral interactions so as to establish whether there are any dominant or synergistic interactions. Such in-depth knowledge should enable the development of pulp chemistry control measures against water quality variations in flotation.

This work demonstrates the use of bubble loads to understand the transport of particles across the pulp-froth interface in a flotation cell processing an Upper Group 2 chromitite seam (UG2) ore. Bubble loads were measured on the first primary cleaner cell of an operating flotation plant using a bubble load meter with a 20mm riser diameter. A bubble load value of 10.58grams/liter was obtained. The bubble load data was used to understand, entrainment and dropback of chromite as a function of particle size. By defining terms such as froth flow number and net dropback, it was found that chromite (known to be non-floatable) was also recovered through true flotation. The entrainment of chromite was found to be predominantly in -25 μm size while +25 μm size particles were found to be floatable and highly susceptible to dropping back. Net-dropback of chromite particles was found to increase with a decrease in chromite particle size contrary to expectation. An overall froth flow number of 69% was obtained.

Opis:
In this study, direct froth flotation experiments were conducted on silicate-rich phosphate tailing samples. The average grade of P2O5 in the flotation feed was 21.6% as determined using a combination of spectroscopic techniques including X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), mineral liberation analysis (MLA), and scanning electron microscopy/energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (SEM/EDS). Two polymers were selected to promote the depression of silicates and enhance the flotation of phosphates: in-house synthesized hybrid polyacrylamide (Hy-PAM) and chitosan. Flotation efficiency of phosphates was evaluated at different flotation conditions including depressant type, depressant dosage, pH, and the flotation time. Results indicated that the optimum flotation efficiency of phosphate minerals (84.6% recovery at 28.6% grade of P2O5) was obtained when Hy-PAM was utilized at the studied range of pH and flotation time. All datasets produced from the flotation experiments were integrated within the framework of machine learning (ML) using artificial neural networks (ANNs). The ANN platform was trained, validated, and successfully employed to predict the process outcomes in relation to the pulp and reagents characteristics, which in turn were used to determine the optimum values of process variables. Coefficient of determination (R2), mean absolute error (MAE), and root-mean-square error (RMSE) were used as model indicators. Optimization results showed that the peak flotation performance could be achieved at higher dosages of both polymers. However, lower pH and shorter flotation time for Hy-PAM, and higher pH and longer flotation time for chitosan, were predicted to give the optimum process efficiency.

This paper studies size-by-size batch flotation kinetics for the separation of Cu at particle sizes +75 μm, investigating the responses in the -150/+75 μm, -212/+150 μm, -300/+212 μm, -355/+300 μm and +355 μm size fractions. The kinetic results were analyzed to identify classes limited by the maximum achievable recovery or low flotation rates. Combinations of these classes were investigated, emulating the selection of the coarsest size in a kinetic study. The impact of compositing size classes was discussed, emphasizing implications in the identification of difficult-to-float components. The -212/+75 μm classes reached steady recoveries at long flotation times, whereas the -355/+212 μm classes presented sustained increasing recoveries at extended flotation times. Flotation rate distributions in the -212/+75 μm classes exhibited mound-shaped distributions, indicating low fractions of rate constants close to zero (R∞-limited case). Conversely, the -355/+212 μm classes presented reverse J-shaped distributions, with a high fraction of valuable minerals with flotation rates close to zero (rate-limited case). Combining several size classes in the definition of the coarsest size fraction in kinetic characterizations proved to hide the flotation patterns of the less massive constituents (+212 μm classes). The +75 μm and +150 μm cumulative retained classes trended towards steady recoveries, consistently leading to mounded flotation rate distributions. This study highlighted the need for reliable methodologies to select size fractions in kinetic characterizations, as their arbitrary definitions may lead to a misinterpretation of the mineral losses when compositing classes with different flotation responses.

Opis:
Froth flotation of copper-zinc-lead ores is a complex process based on similar metallurgy processing and strong interactions between chalcopyrite and sphalerite. These types of ores represent 15% of the world production and 7.5% of copper deposits all over the world. In the present study, an attempt is made to assess the feasibility of froth flotation of a complex sulphide ore, where the effect of liberation grade as well as depressant, collector and frother dosage was studied. Copper flotation is dependent on the mineral liberation grade, which is significantly related with the size distribution. It was shown that longer grinding time increased the Cu grade but decreased the copper recovery due to the presence of very fine particles. Lime and sodium metabisulphite, used as depressants, allowed to achieve a good flotation performance. It was shown that for this type of ore lower dosage of the collector should be applied. Finally, a higher frother dosage led to a greater selectivity and reduced entrainment of very fine particles, but also caused low kinetic ratio and low recovery of valuable minerals. A well-defined flotation objective was imperative for a good liberation grade and reagents dosage selection, mainly for complex sulphide ores. A useful contribute was given to a better technical understanding of flotation of a complex sulphide ore from the Moinho deposit.

The effect of air flow rate, pulp density and particle size was studied using central composite design for coal samples from the Lazy mine. Evaluation of column flotation tests was based on two dependant variables such as ash content and combustible matter recovery in the concentrate. The ash content in the concentrate was from 4.61 to 9.62% with the recovery of combustible matter from 17.43 to 81.98%. The ANOVA statistical analysis showed that the main effect of air flow rate has a significant impact on the combustible matter recovery and ash content in the concentrate. The main effect of pulp density on the combustible matter recovery is significant, whereas for the ash content it is not seen. There is a strong effect of the particle size on the ash content and combustible matter recovery in the concentrate. The interaction of the effect of the pulp density and particle size has a significant impact on the ash content in the concentrate.

Opis:
Sodium silicate is one of the main depressants against calcite and fluorite in the scheelite flotation industry. In the first part of this article, the authors acidified sodium silicate (AWG) with three acids (sulfuric, oxalic and hydrochloric) to improve its performance. Results showed that acidified water glass outperforms alkaline water glass in terms of selectivity: it increases mainly the grade by further depressing silicates and calcium-bearing minerals. In most cases, AWG requires lower dosages to do so. The effect of acidified water glass is evaluated through Mineral Liberation Analysis (MLA), froth analysis, Raman and Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) spectroscopy in order to hypothesize its mechanism. MLA shows that AWG affects silicates and sulfides more intensely than semi-soluble salttype minerals. Froth observations indicate other species in solution associated to the acid having an impact on the flotation results. Raman spectroscopy and NMR measurements indicate that the solution undergoes deep depolymerization when water glass is acidified. Lower molecular weight silica species, specifically Si-O monomers such as SiO(OH)3- will be responsible for the depression of the gangue minerals and are the drivers of the selectivity of AWG, more than orthosilicic acid. Depolymerization is more or less effective depending on the mass ratio of the acid to water glass and depending on the acid.

Opis:
The attachment of bubbles and particles represents one of the sub-processes in froth flotation among others (e.g. collision and detachment). The main interactions present at short distances in such a bubble-particle system are the van der Waals and electrostatic double layer interactions combined in the DLVO theory. In this study, the special features of the attachment process were discussed with a focus on flotation. For the van der Waals interactions, the Hamaker constants were calculated with the help of Lifshitz´ macroscopic theory as a function of the separation distance for specific material combinations. A specific material system (PbS-Water-Air) was used to demonstrate the implementation of bubble-particle attachment of the proposed modelling framework. The effects of additional surfactant/collector and air layers on the solid interface were presented. This framework of layered systems showed that the sign of van der Waals interaction could be turned from repulsive to attractive without the need to extend the DLVO theory. The thickness of the layer as a function of collector adsorption between a particle and a bubble is suggested as a modelling parameter in bubble-particle attachment efficiency.

Opis:
In this study, the flotation of naturally hydrophobic coal particles in salt solutions with different cations (Na+, Ca2+, and Al3+) was investigated to clarify the flotation enhancement mechanism. The surface chemistry aspects were examined using the zeta potential measurements and bubble-particle attachment time experiments. The results of the flotation experiments showed that the presence of electrolytes in the flotation system clearly enhanced the flotation performance in a manner dependent on the type and concentration of the electrolytes. In the experiments, the AlCl3 and NaCl solutions showed the highest and the lowest flotation performance improvements, respectively. The zeta potential measurements showed that AlCl3 had a stronger influence on the surface charge of coal particles than CaCl2 or NaCl did. The induction time measurements indicated that the attachment decreased with increasing salt concentration and ionic valency state. In addition, abundant fine bubbles were generated in higher concentration salt solutions, particularly for the AlCl3 solutions, which prevented from the bubble coalescence and increased froth stability. It is concluded that the addition of salt solutions to a flotation system enhances the coal flotation performance, particularly for high-valence electrolyte solutions, which is attributed to the abundance of finer bubbles in the froth phase, depending on the type and concentration of the electrolyte.

Opis:
In order to minimize fresh water usage, much attention has been paid to the flotation using saline or sea water. However, the effects of various ions in these waters on froth properties in flotation are not fully understood. In this study, the effects of electrolyte solutions containing NaCl, KCl, CaCl2, and MgCl2 at different concentrations in the presence of terpenic oil as a frother were investigated on froth performance, dynamic froth stability (DFS). It was found that KCl had the best synergistic effects with terpenic oil in reducing the solution surface tension. In the presence of terpenic oil, the DFS and half-life time were reduced with the increased ion concentration. Dynamics foamability index measurements (DFI) confirmed that the increased ion concentration increased the foamability, as frother did. In addition, Gibbs adsorption isotherm suggested that the amount of terpenic oil adsorbed at the gas-liquid interface was increased with the increased ion concentration. This study therefore indicated that the presence of ions can reduce the froth stability but not decline foamability due to terpenic oil, enlighting the application of saline or sea water in defoaming process in flotation.

Opis:
The use of ammonium dibutyl dithiophosphate (ADD) as a collector in the flotation of slimecontaining copper sulfide ore typically produces a sticky froth, which results in poor flotation. The mechanism and effects of copper sulfide ore flotation in synergistic systems comprising ADD and terpenic oil reagents have been systematically investigated to solve this problem. A high ratio of ADD to terpenic oil is not conducive to the flotation of fine-grained copper sulfide ores; however, adjusting this ratio may improve floatation by reducing the effect of the slime. Lowering the ratio from 5:1 to 1:1 increased the copper grade from 17.7% to 20.8%, while the recovery was largely unchanged. Notably, adjusting this ratio also reduced the cost of the flotation reagent. To study the mechanism by which the ADD–to–terpenic oil ratio affects the foam performance, the froth stability tests of the gas–liquid twophase and gas–liquid–solid three-phase systems were performed. Reducing the proportion of ADD reduced the froth water content and weakened the ability of the froth to collect gangue by adsorbtion with copper ions; this reduced gangue entrainment and maximized recovery and product quality.

Opis:
The flotation froth surface appearance includes remarkable information, which can be employed as a helpful index for the qualitative evaluation of the process efficiency. Image analysis is a practical technology for the sake of achieving process related information that can be employed in expert controllers in order to amend flotation performance. In this paper, the intelligent modelling of relationship between froth characteristics and the metallurgical performance in a pilot column flotation of iron ore was established. Column flotation tests were carried out at a wide range of operating conditions and the froth features along with the metallurgical performances were specified for each run. The artificial intelligence models suggested for the performance parameters prediction include (1) multi-layer back propagation neural network (BPNN), (2) hybrid BPNN with principal component analysis (PCA). The hybrid network was on the basis of the PCA employment in order to decrease the number of variables to be given as input for BPNN. The relationships between the froth features and metallurgical performance factors were successfully modelled via the use of the two methods. The simulation results revealed that the prediction precision of BPNN model on the basis of all the data was relatively higher than the estimation precision of BPNN based on PCA algorithm. The Hybrid BPNN model that was trained by the pre-processed database of measurements achieved from the PCA can be considered a robust method when training time is of paramount importance in objectives of proces control.

Opis:
The main problem in the flotation of Cu-Mo sulfide ores in seawater is poor floatability of molybdenite at pH>9.5. Froth stability plays a very important role in determining concentrate grade and recovery in flotation operations and in this paper both floatability and frothability have been tested. The frothability have been studied by measuring froth equilibrium layer thickness in a modified laboratory flotation cell. Two chemical aspects of seawater need to be considered: the content of NaCl (around 87% of salinity), and the concentration of secondary ions (around 13%) (sulfate, magnesium, calcium, bicarbonate ions, etc.). Seawater, NaCl solutions, and seawater’s ions were found to depress frothability. The effect of pH on frothability over the pH range from 9.5 to 11, which is very strong in freshwater, becomes negligible in seawater and the tested electrolyte solutions. The analysis of the relationship between the mechanisms of molybdenite depression and the loss of frothability in seawater implies that the effects of the studied ions on molybdenite floatability and on pulp frothability are different. While depression of molybdenite floatability could be tracked down to magnesium hydroxide precipitation as a main culprit, the depression of frothability is a much more complicated issue.

Opis:
A number of flotation plants around the world have increased the use of seawater due to limited sources of fresh water. The aim of this research work is to study the role that Mg2+ and Ca2+ ions play in the interactions between kaolinite and chalcopyrite in seawater. In order to achieve this objective, the effect of kaolinite on flotation of chalcopyrite is studied over the pH range from 8 to 11, when flotation is carried out in seawater and in a 0.01M NaCl solution. The influence of calcium, magnesium, sodium, and potassium ions on the extent of depression by kaolinite is evaluated. The micro-flotation results indicate that chalcopyrite is depressed by kaolinite in both 0.01 NaCl solution and seawater. In the 0.01 NaCl solution, the depressing effect of kaolinite decreases as the pH increases from 8 to 11. However, the results obtained using seawater show that the depressing effect of kaolinite is similar to what is observed in a 0.01 NaCl solution only at pH values below 9, but above this pH kaolinite significantly affects the recovery of chalcopyrite. The results from experiments with using solutions containing individual cations show that the depressing action of kaolinite in the presence of Mg2+ and Ca2+ is more obvious at pH values of 9 and 10, respectively, which correlates with the pH values at which the first hydroxy-complexes of these divalent cations start forming. This seems to indicate that depressing effect of kaolinite on chalcopyrite in seawater may be related to formation of hydrolyzed species of calcium and magnesium. These species can induce heterocoagulation between kaolinite and chalcopyrite. The trends observed in the micro-flotation experiments are in good agreement with the results of the induction time measurements and slime coating tests.

Opis:
This study was aimed to utilize column flotation to obtain much cleaner concentrate in the Cu circuit. However, the numbers of equipment and the proper streams for column application should be the key for successful operation. Therefore, the effects of some operational parameters such as wash water rate, airflow rate and froth height were investigated on the streams of namely Cu first cleaner concentrate, Cu rougher concentrate and Cu third cleaner concentrate in terms of mineral recoveries and selectivity. Distribution of wash water rate to products was also determined by a tracer test method. Optimum operating conditions and accordingly performance of the column were determined by simulation studies. According to the results, the suitable streams for industrial scale flotation column are advised as the rougher concentrate and/or first cleaner concentrate. With series installation of columns, it is possible to obtain two different concentrates which include 22% Cu, 4% Zn and 17% Cu, 8% Zn without any decrease in overall recovery of plant.
