2023121 · The flotation process is an ore concentration step, which requires using about 50–85% of water in the feed pulp. With that, in flotation alone, water consumption reaches an average of 0.96 m 3 per ton [5], [6], [7]. However, despite great criticism, the flotation stage is how fine-grained ores (between 10 µm and 150 µm in hematite/quartz …

view moreThe flotation has been successfully applied to process the iron ore for the particle size (Ps) from 10 µm up to 150 µm. The presence of the slimes (Ps < 10 µm) is harmful on the reverse flotation of quartz, so they are usually prior removed by hydrocyclones.

This reagent modifies the surface of either the iron oxide or the principal gangue component, normally silica, so that these particles attach themselves to the air bubbles and are carried to the surface, where …
view moreFroth flotation of iron ores is one of the most widely used methods to upgrade iron ore into high-grade concentrates. In recent years, reverse cationic flotation of iron ores has been specifically the subject of several studies. Since quartz is the most common gangue mineral in iron ores, understanding the behaviour of this mineral was the main target of the …
view more2020730 · Froth flotation has been widely used in upgrading iron ores. Iron ore flotation can be performed in two technical routes: direct flotation of iron oxides and reverse flotation of gangue minerals with depression of iron oxides. Nowadays, reverse flotation is the most commonly used route in iron ore flotation. This review is focused on the reverse …

The pilot column was operated in series with the industrial plant Vargem Grande 2 (Iron Quadrangle, Brazil) receiving, as feed, part of the underflow from …

An interactive effect between valuable minerals and gangue minerals, which serve as one of the most important factors in complex ore flotation, has been widely explored [17–20].
