1. Introduction. The flotation process is a separation technique primarily used in mineral processing for the recovery of minerals (Wills and Finch, 2016), that also finds application in other industrial processes such as wastewater treatment and paper recycling (Saththasivam et al., 2016, Vashisth et al., 2011).Separation of mineral …

Most of the coal fines -600 µm (-30 mesh) are commonly treated by the froth flotation process using a bank of stirred tank cells. In a conventional practice of a froth flotation operation, coal fines, the liquid form of frother, the collector such as kerosene or fuel oil, and/or a conditioner are mechanically stirred in a water solution.

The excessive coarse size fraction of −100 + 74 μm and the fine size fraction of −20 μm were considered to be detrimental to the recovery of gold in the process of separation flotation. Lower gold recovery of the coarse size fraction may be attributed to insufficient liberation of gold from the sulfide minerals (e.g. galena) and the ...

Minerals that are wetted do not float, whereas those which are not wetted float well. Therefore, all metal sulphides and most non-metallic minerals float, while the gangue or enclosing mineral sinks—galena and quartzite, for example. Gold of minus 40 mesh also floats, and such flaky materials as graphite and molybdenite are good floaters.

Introduction. Flotation is one of the prime mineral processing methods that has found wide application from separation of complex ores such as sulphides of lead–zinc and copper–zinc to platinum, nickel and gold hosting sulphides, to oxides like hematite, cassiterite, oxidised minerals such as malachite, cerussite and finally to non-metallic …

Without this flotation step, the fine coal would upset the specific gravity range of the natural media and create a large circulating load of coal fines in the media. The media is a closely controlled fraction from the tailings produced by the main flotation section with respect to density and size ( — 60, + 250 mesh).
