TECHNICAL NOTE THE EFFECT OF pH MODIFIER ON THE FLOTATION OF CELESTITE WITH SODIUM OLEATE AND SODIUM METASILICATE
نویسنده
چکیده
This paper studies the influence of two pH modifiers, namely sodium hydroxide (NaOH) and sodium carbonate (Na2C03), on the flotation of celestite ore using sodium oleate as the collector and sodium silicate (Na2SiO 3) as the depressant. The use of Na2CO 3 provides the best results for the concentration of celestite, under the same experimental conditions. © 1998 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved

Flotation Rate of Celestite and Calcite
-This paper studies several kinetic aspects of semi-batch flotation of celestite and calcite in a mechanical or subaeration cell with sodium oleate as the collector agent, using pure minerals ranging in size between 177 and 74 pm, respectively, with a constant pH = 9 in the flotation bath in all experiments. The results obtained indicate that both minerals float rapidly and that the flotation r...
متن کاملSynergetic Effect of the Mixed Anionic/Non-Ionic Collectors in Low Temperature Flotation of Scheelite
The synergetic effect of four octaphenyl polyoxyethyienes (TX) on low temperature flotation of scheelite at 9–11 ◦C was investigated through flotation experiments, and the adsorption mechanism was studied by way of surface tension, zeta potential, and adsorption measurement. The results show that the presence of the four octaphenyl polyoxyethyienes can improve scheelite flotation in a low conce...

متن کاملSelective Separation of Fluorite, Barite and Calcite with Valonea Extract and Sodium Fluosilicate as Depressants
Fluorite, barite and calcite are important industry minerals. However, they often co-exist, presenting difficulty in selectively separating them due to their similar surface properties. In this study, valonea extract and sodium fluosilicate were used as depressants to selectively separate them by flotation, with sodium oleate as the collector. The single mineral flotation results showed that va...
متن کاملThe Effect of Polystyrene on the Carrier Flotation of Fine Smithsonite
Carrier flotation is a common technique used to improve flotation recovery of ultrafine ores. In this study, we used coarse polystyrene as the carrier material to enhance flotation recovery of fine smithsonite (ZnCO3) particles. Sodium oleate was used as the collector and played a role in the adhesion of fine smithsonite to polystyrene due to its amphipathic properties. The carrier feature of p...
