In this paper, a novel hydroxyl-containing quaternary ammonium surfactant N-(2-Hydroxyethyl)-N, N-dimethyl-3-[(1-oxododecyl)amino]-1-propanaminium (LPDC) was synthesized and introduced as collector for the reverse cationic flotation separation of apatite from quartz; adsorption mechanisms between LPDC two mineral surfaces were investigated by Fourier transform infrared spectrometer (FTIR), zeta...

partially replace oil and natural gas as fuel sources. Of all the coal-cleaning pmesses, flotation is one. of the most versatile. Carbon dioxide coal flotation is a new technology developed at the University of Utah.(l) Compared with conventional flotation, carbon dioxide flotation enhances the ash rejection and increases flotation recovery for coals of different rank with the exception of lign...

An attempt has been made to beneficiate the Indian coking coal fines by a combination of Spiral, flotation and Oleo Flotation processes. Beneficiation studies were also carried out on 0.5mm coal fines using flotation and oleo flotation by splitting at size 0.063mm.Size fraction of 0.5mm-0.063mm and -0.063mm size were treated in flotation and Oleo flotation respectively. The washability studies ...

The development of froth flotation is traced from its earliest-known use through the discoveries leading to the present knowledge of the science. The factors influencing the flotation of non-sulfide and non-metallic minerals are discussed, and the machines used in commercial flotation operations are described. Experimental work on the flotation beneficiation of phosphate rock is presented as an...

The present work investigates the conjugation of flotation and photo-Fenton techniques on oil removal performance from oilfield produced water. The experiments were conducted in a column flotation and annular lamp reactor for induced air flotation and photodegradation steps, respectively. A nonionic surfactant was used as a flotation agent. The flotation experimental data were analyzed in terms...

separation method that is widely used in coal beneficiation for the separation of fine coal particles from associated minerals in water slurries. Since the cumulative recovery of a component in the concentrate is proportional to flotation time, the flotation process can be considered as a time-rate recovery process (Emad, Mohammad, and Bahram, 2010). Therefore, the general mathematical flotatio...

Abstract Deinked pulp flotation column has been applied in wastepaper recycling. Bubble size in deinked pulp flotation column is very important during the flotation process. In this paper, bubble images of deinked pulp flotation column were first caught by digital camera, and then the bubbles were detected by using a detection algorithm based on sparse and redundant image processing. The result...

This paper is one of a study that implements reverse flotation methods as an alternative beneficiation on bauxite processing. aimed at decrease silica content and increase alumina in so its qualified feed Bayer Process. The experiments were carried out 1375 mL cell tank. Dodecylamine (DDA) AERO 3000C used the collector, starch depressant, Dowfroth 1012 frother. overall conducted solid to soluti...

It is possible to obtain good performance from a flotation plant but it has proved difficult to maintain such performance. Recovery rates on a flotation plant can be around 90% and often lower, making flotation one of the least efficient processes in the concentration path. Hence, over the last few decades much research and development has gone into the stabilization and optimization of flotati...
