Adding ing agent and inflate to produce bubbles, attach hydrophobic mineral particles to bubbles, and then float and separate. Floatation can usually deal with materials smaller than 0.2~0.3mm. In principle, it can separate all kinds of mineral raw materials, which is one of the most widely used methods.
The following are the main areas that have attracted serious attention for innovation in mineral processing: Energy consumption and GHG reduction. Economy of scale (capital cost) Efficient use of consumables (media, liner, reagents) Instrumentation, control, and automation. Use of alternative water sources.
Mineral processing can involve four general types of unit operation: ... There are a number of ways to increase the concentration of the wanted minerals: in any particular case the method chosen will depend on the relative physical and surface chemical properties of the mineral and the gangue. Concentration is defined as the …
