Froth flotation of iron ores . This invention relates to the beneficiation of iron ores by froth flotation. More particularly, the invention relates to a two-stage flotation process suitable for use on fines such as are found in the overflow from iron ore washer plants; in waste products from heavy media separation processes and on those ores which must be finely ground in order to unlock …
The barite contents in the concentrate did not exceed 74.1 % at a barite recovery of 11.5 %, - without visible tendency for improvements in optimization tests. 258 PROCESSING OF COMPLEX ORES SUMMARY AND CONCLUSIONS Except for the neutralization muds, all materials were amenable to barite flotation (Table 10).
In order to improve the flotation separation efficiency of bastnaesite from barite and calcite, a novel collector, octylamino-bis-(butanohydroxamic acid) (OBHA), with large molecular structure and two functional groups was synthesized based on the molecular design of flotation reagents theory.OBHA was adopted as collector in both single, mixed binary and mixed …
3. Barite Flotation Process. Barite flotation process is mainly based on the difference of physical and chemical properties of barite and associated minerals. It is commonly used in eluvial barite ore and hydrothermal barite ore associated with sulfide ore and fluorite. For the separation of fine-grained ores and gravity separation tailings ...
As reported, SPS has been extensively applied in the flotation of silicate and iron ores,,, but seldom have researchers examined the performance of SPS in the flotation of fluorite or barite. Apart from collectors, depressants are vital to achieve desirable separation results in fluorite ore beneficiation.
This invention relates to the beneficiation of iron ores by froth flotation. More particularly, the invention relates to a two-stage flotation process suitable for use on fines such as are found in the overflow from iron ore washer plants; in waste products from heavy media separation processes and on those ores which must be finely ground in order to unlock the iron minerals from the …
of flotation were applied to barite and fluorite-barite ores. Definitive choice of optimal flotation requirements focused on Petronate L (1000 g/t ; pH 6.5) for barite flotation and on Flotbel . R171A (100 g/t ; pH 9) for fluorite, combined with potassium dichromate as depressing agent for quartz and barite.
the most popular flotation route in iron ore industry, the direct flotation of iron ox ides still appears desirable for some low grade iron ores that contain a vast amount of quartz. For example, at Republic Mine, Michigan, U.S.A., a hematite ore is upgraded from 36.5% Fe to 65.4% Fe with a Fe recovery of 82.5% using the direct flotation route.
With the depleting reserves of high-grade iron ore in the world, froth flotation has become increasingly important to process intermediate- and low-grade iron ore in an attempt to meet the rapidly growing demand on the international market. In over half a century's practice in the iron ore industry, froth flotation has been established as an efficient method to remove …
Research interests - mainly processing of iron ores, emphasizing separation techniques (gravity, magnetic and flotation) as well as comminution operations. Currently working on reprocessing of old ...
A novel stepped flotation technique is discussed for the treatment of carbonate-rich iron ores. The necessity of desliming to enable effective flotation is discussed in detail.
The FLOTATION PROCESS is one of the commonest methods of extracting the valuable minerals from certain classes of ores, and it is generally more efficient as regards the recovery of the minerals than any other process …
The barite flotation should then proceed without difficulty, i.e., without encountering excess reagent consumption, unmanageable froth inconsistencies, and low grade concentrates. In effect, the addition of the CF 3-containing compound to the barite slurry transfers barite flotation into a reliable process with reproducible results.
In the flotation of rutile ore and iron-ore tailings, sodium fluosilicate was used to depress silicate minerals. Thus, in the selective separation of fluorite, barite and calcite with sodium fluosilicate, the silicate minerals, such as quartz and …
The main problem for the flotation of complex ores, obviously, is the negative effect of the interactions among minerals in slurry, which leads tothe variation of surface properties in the process of separation. In this review, the studies of interactive effect among minerals in the flotation of iron ores, magnesite ores, and scheelite ores
With the rapid depletion of these relatively simple fluorite ores that can be readily beneficiated, the flotation separation of fluorite from barite becomes more and more important. The anionic reagents have been used in the flotation separation of fluorite from barite, such as sodium oleate (NaOl) and sodium petroleum sulfonate (SPS) [8,9].
Research regarding iron ore flotation began in 1931, demonstrating that reverse. cationic flotation is a very efficient method for beneficiating oxidised iron …
In the flotation of rutile ore and iron-ore tailings, sodium fluosilicate was used to depress silicate minerals. Thus, in the selective separation of fluorite, barite and …
The results indicated that it was necessary to use a depressant for the selective separation of barite from the calcite. Fig. 3. Effect of pH on the flotation recovery of barite and calcite The effect of collector SDS and NaOL dosage on barite and calcite at the best flotation pH is shown in Fig. 4.
Barite deposit at Mangampet is one of the world's largest deposits containing around 61 million tonnes of recoverable barite. Beneficiation of low grade barite dumps interlocked with schist and slate gangue was studied using amine as collector (reverse flotation) to avoid the collector coating on barite. Instead of conventional flotation cells, flotation column was opted …
these barite ores depend on factors like the grade of the ore, nature of the gangue and their liberation size [8]. Gravity separation which is about the oldest method to separate minerals and froth flotation are two of the most common methods used to beneficiate barite [9, 10]. Using froth flotation, barite samples with concentration
separation and flotation are standard practices to separate the gangue minerals from iron ores. However, the ores having ferromagnetic nature are suitable for being processed using magnetic separation methods For example, magnetite [1]. (Fe 3O 4) is the most ferromagnetic of all the naturally occurring
Promoter for flotation of non-metallics, calcite, barite, tungsten, garnet, and iron ores. Reagent 825: Dark colored viscous liquid or paste. Petroleum sulfonic acids. 5-12% dispersion in water .5 to 3.0 Strong promoter similar to …
Desliming is an essential step for a successful separation in the cationic flotation of iron ores for similar reasons as in the anionic flotation of iron ores (i.e., the presence of slimes leads to high reagent consumption due to their high surface area; slime coatings on the larger particles, governed by electrostatic interaction, interfere ...

problem in iron ore smelting process. However, the magnetic separation of pyrrhotite from magnetite is problematic, due to their similar magnetic property and magnetic flocculation between pyrrhotite and magnetite [3]. Flotation has been commercially used as a method for removing pyrrhotite from magnetite for high sulfurous iron ores [4]. In ...
