Abstract The raw gold grade of a mine in Shandong is 1.42 g/t, and it accompanied by copper sulfur minerals, the embedding closely related, so difficult to obtain ideal index using original flotation process. In order realize effective recovery gold, copper, sulfur, test study mixing-separation priority carried out. results show that mineral more suitable for beneficiation process flotation. ra...

A dynamic fundamental model was developed linking processes from the microscopic scale to the equipment scale for batch froth flotation. State estimation, fault detection, and disturbance identification were implemented using the extended Kalman filter (EKF), which reconciles real-time measurements with dynamic models. The online measurements for the EKF were obtained through image analysis of ...

The efficiency of mineral processing operations, i.e. concentrating raw ores for metal extraction, impacts significantly on the operating cost of the final metal products. First, valuable minerals are liberated from the ore matrix in a comminution circuit, comprised of grinding (e.g., ball mills) and classification (e.g. hydrocyclones) units. The liberated minerals are subsequently concentrated...

BACKGROUND Sensory isolation in a flotation tank is a method known for inducing deep relaxation and subsequent positive health effects for patients suffering from e.g. stress or muscle tensions pains. Very few studies have investigated this method as a preventive health-care intervention. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects in healthy participants after receiving a series of f...

Solid/liquid separations are commonly the first step in any wastewater treatment. Such technologies are mature and new developments are rare. However, in the last decade some significant improvements in separation techniques for industrial wastewater pretreatment have been implemented. Advances in the technology include more efficient, faster centrifugal mixing of treatment chemicals and wastew...

The restricted environmental stimulation technique or REST is a method of relaxation where the level of environmental sensory inputs is kept very low. A particular REST technique called tank flotation, or flotation REST, consists of 1 h sessions in a tank containing water with a high salt content and maintained at 35.5 degrees C. In this protocol, five normal subjects were studied before and du...

Abstract To solve the problems of unstable chemical oxygen demand (COD), turbidity and suspended solid (SS) removal for electrocatalytic process operation subsequent ultrafiltration membrane–reverse osmosis membrane in a centralised fracturing wastewater treatment plant Inner Mongolia, integrated dissolved ozone flotation (DOF) was proposed to replace original process. Multiple processes, such ...
