Abstract. It is not easy to convey, in a few words, the enormous importance of the froth flotation process to the economy of the whole industrial world. It may suffice, for the present article, to quote rough estimates of the quantity of crushed ore which is treated annually by flotation — 2 x 10 9 tonnes — and the proportion of base-metals ...
Hence, the efficient flotation to separate and enrich the carbon content of fine slag can be considered an important way to achieve raw fine slag upgrading. This was also reported in the coal fly ash field [20], [37]. The HHV of flotation residual carbon is elevated to 19.48 MJ/kg after a three-step froth flotation process.
During the flotation process, the surface free energy of the coal and minerals, which is composed of the polar components γ AB (Lewis acids and bases) and non-polar components γ LW (Lifshitz–van der Waals forces) in terms of the van Oss-Chaudhury-Good theory, is an important parameter affecting the mineral particle wetting …

To remove ash and pyritic sulphur from bitumen an experimental study was performed to investigate the use of low frequency ultrasound wave in column flotation. For this purpose, a column flotation rig was equipped with a low frequency 24 kHz ultrasound transducer. The bitumen samples had sulphur content of 9.6 % (6.81 % in the pyritic …
For the flotation tests, a low-price diesel was used as the collector. It was found that, if CFA particles of 40-71 µm are used, ~99% of unburned carbon can be recovered.
Coal fly ash (CFA) is one of the industrial byproducts of burning coal for energy production and has unburned carbon, which negatively affects its full potential use. The flotation technology can be effective in separating unburned carbon from CFA, and the prestirring time is crucial for the ideal initial conditions during the flotation process.
A two–stage flotation process for HSWI fly ash treatment is proposed, which is efficient. Column flotation can simultaneously separate carbon constituents and PCDD/Fs from HSWI fly ash. The large amounts of NaCl and powder activated carbon in fly ash have effects on flotation process. The flotation process of fly ash is favorable to safe …
In flotation, pH control is a vital method to control selective mineral separation. A standard depressant that is used is an Alkali. An Alkali is any substance that when mixed with Acid will neutralize each other and form a new chemical substance called a BASE. This is very important.
The purpose of this research was to investigate the mechanism of intensifying coal fly ash flotation by pretreatment of the non-ionic surfactant Triton X-100 (TX100). ... (CGFS) resources. In this study, we adopted a combined gravity-separation and flotation process to efficiently recover residual carbon by considering the characteristics …
The average gray value of flotation froth at different flotation time was used to analyze the concentrate ash content and the froth overflowing speed. The homogeneity was proposed to characterize the bubble size in coal flotation froth, the …
Among them, froth flotation is widely acknowledged as the most efficient method for extracting unburned carbon from fly ash [9]. The technical aspects of fly ash flotation, including the process flowsheet, equipment, and reagents, have been investigated mostly on the laboratory scale and some industrial applications have been …
At a pulp concentration of 30 wt%, the Loss on Ignition (LOI) of tailing was 6.07%, which is still higher than that of grade I fly ash (LOI ≤5%). The concentration of fine unburned carbon particles in the fly ash was relatively low. In the flotation process, the probability of unburned carbon particles colliding with bubbles was low.
ABSTRACT The concentrate ash content is the most effective evaluation index in the flotation process. However, the ash content obtained by the current technology has a serious hysteresis.

In the process of sequential flotation, the use of depressants (e.g., Na cyanide, Zn sulphate, sodium sulphite, sodium metabisulphite) and activators (e.g. CuSO 4) at each stage is combined to carefully control pH to achieve optimum separation. Lime (or soda ash) is added to the different flotation stages to the required concentration.
Flotation is an effective methodology for removing the UC from fly ash. However, the specific physicochemical properties of the UC particle surface make them difficult to float. In this study, a coal tar-based (CTB) collector was used to remove the UC from fly ash through flotation process.

The ultrasonic treatment was also found to be effective in ash rejection during the flotation of oil shale [41]. Slaczka [42] found the ultrasonic pretreatment increased the flotation rate of barite while decreased the flotation rate of fluorite, and hence the flotation selectivity of barite from a barite-fluorite-quartz ore was improved.
