Effect of Galvanic Interactions Between Grinding Media and Sulfide Minerals on Flotation Kinetics of Chalcopyrite [PDF]
Although the flotation separation of sulfides and their electrochemical interactions have been examined in some investigations, study the direct relationship between the flotation kinetics of sulfides and their galvanic interactions during the process ...

Discrimination of Six Flotation Kinetic Models Used in the Conventional Flotation and Carrier Flotation of −74 μm Coal Fines [PDF]
In this study, experimental results of conventional flotation and carrier flotation were characterized by six commonly used flotation kinetic models. Two statistical criteria (coefficient of determination, R 2, and root mean square error, RMSE) were used for comparison of fitting performance of different models.

Coupling Flotation Rate Constant and Viscosity Models
In a flotation process, the particle–bubble and particle–particle interactions are key factors influencing collection efficiencies. In this work, the generalized Sutherland equation collision model and the modified Dobby–Finch attachment model for ...

Kinetic study of defluoridation of drinking water by electrocoagulation/electroflotation in a stirred tank reactor and in an external-loop airlift reactor [PDF]
A kinetic study of defluoridation of drinking water was carried out using the electrocoagulation/electroflotation process in two batch reactors of identical volume (20 L): a stirred tank reactor (STR) and an external-loop airlift reactor (ELALR).

Particle size grouping method as a control system of efficiency flotation process on the example of coal [PDF]
Agglomeration of coal particles during flotation can be analysed with the Particle Size Grouping (PSG) method. Numerous experiments were carried out to theoretically explain the effect of carbon particles agglomeration, but the result still remains ...

Optimization of parameters for the dissolution of Mn from manganese nodules with the use of tailings in an acid medium [PDF]
Manganese nodules are an attractive source of base metals and critical and rare elements and are required to meet a high demand of today’s industry. In previous studies, it has been shown that high concentrations of reducing agent (Fe) in the system are ...

Research progress on the impact of mineral surface roughness on particle-bubble interaction
Mineral surface roughness is an important factor affecting flotation efficiency. Surface roughness can affect the hydrophobicity of minerals, the adsorption of reagents, and the rupture of liquid films between particles and bubbles, resulting in a ...
