Flotation is a complex process that occurs in solid–liquid-gas multiphase systems, and its
main factors include the minerals, separation medium, as well as various flotation reagents …

The froth flotation method, which is used for the processing of most non-ferrous ores,
involves the adsorption of both organic and inorganic reagents at the mineral/water …

The selectivity of reagents to minerals is extraordinarily important in flotation. However, the
selective mechanism of reagents for minerals has not been completely clarified. Similar to …

Non-negligible concentrations of chemicals products are often contained in worldwide
wastewaters. Although they can be eco-toxic, they are generally poorly removed in water …

Hypothesis The adsorption mechanisms of fatty acids on minerals are largely debated from
years, and their understanding is now required to improve flotation processing in the critical …

The potential of sodium tripolyphosphate as a depressant for selective flotation separation of
scheelite from calcite is investigated by the micro-flotation tests and industrial scale tests in …

Phenol is a toxic pollutant commonly found in industrial wastewaters. Thus, the objective of
the present study consisted in removing this organic compound from aqueous solution using …

Flotation tests were performed on a skarn ore to attain the selective separation of scheelite
(CaWO 4) from fluorite, apatite, and silicates. Fluorite and apatite constitute common gangue …

Chalcopyrite (CuFeS 2) is one of the main copper minerals, and is always found associated
with pyrite (FeS 2). To obtain a satisfactory Cu concentration, the undesirable pyrite …

Abstract Bastnaesite ((Ce, La, Pr, Rb) CO 3 F) is an important source of light rare earth
elements and is commonly associated with calcium (Ca)-containing minerals such as fluorite …
