2011914 · This review looks at each of the four essential levels of process control (instrumentation, base level flotation control, advanced flotation control and optimising flotation control) and examines current and future trends within each sub-level.

The adverse effects of slime coating, by which a value mineral is covered by slimes and prevented from direct contact with collectors and/or air bubbles, have been recognized for decades. It happens ubiquitously in the flotation of various minerals, including sulfide minerals …

Single-mineral flotation tests demonstrate that the natural floatability of the sulfide minerals investigated decreased in the following order: molybdenite > bismuthinite > pyrite.
view more2022915 · In a froth flotation cell, the target mineral particles treated by the surfactant named collector will become hydrophobic and attach themselves to the rising air bubble to form particle-rich froth on the suspension surface, while the hydrophilic unwanted gangue minerals are depressed and settled to the bottom of the cell [3].

In this study, we introduced machine learning (ML) models to predict the grade and yield of a multi-stage flotation process of a complex lead–zinc sulfide ore.

Certain green modifiers may be used as dispersants, flocculants, depressants, or activators. The functions of green modifiers in …

Our results showed higher PbS and ZnS recoveries in more concentrated NaCl salt solutions.

The Froth Flotation Process is about taking advantage of the natural hydrophobicity of liberated (well ground) minerals/metals and making/playing on making them hydrophobic (water-repel) individually to carefully separate them from one another and the slurry they are in. For this purpose we use …
