The cation reverse flotation is a widely used method in improving the grade of iron ore concentrate, but hematite depressant is the key. In this work, the flotation behavior of hematite and quartz using the complex of Fe(III) and xanthan gum (Fe(III)-XG) as depressant was investigated via micro-flotation tests.
The improved recovery of quartz in flotation cells might thus be attributed to froth stabilization by HACs, perhaps acting as a Pickering stabilizer. Among the main findings, a tendency of HACs to form mineral agglomerates was identified and further explained using the extended DLVO theory in combination with measured adsorption …

The ideal molecular model of the chrysocolla unit cell is shown in Fig. 1 [12]. However, isomorphism exists in the molecular structure of chrysocolla because of impurity-atom doping, resulting in chrysocolla not having a fixed chemical formula. ... The chrysocolla surface is porous and shows similar flotation performance to quartz under ...

Primary monoamines have been long used and studied as flotation collectors for quartz. In the past several mechanisms have been proposed to explain the manner in which the amines adsorb onto and render the mineral hydrophobic and, thus, floatable. From past data and proposed mechanisms and reinterpreting some of the past …
The pneumatic cell has a great potential for quartz reverse flotation in the iron ore industry, with the possibility of reducing the flotation time and increasing the metallic recovery. One stage of pneumatic flotation can replace the rougher and scavenger stages of mechanical cells, with a strong decrease in the footprint and enhanced ...

The effect of hydrodynamic parameters on the flotation of coarse quartz particles in the presence and absence of NBs in the laboratory mechanical flotation cell was investigated. The following conclusions were obtained: (1). It was observed that the presence of NBs has the major role on the coarse quartz particles flotation.

Flotation cell: n/a: Pyrite and galena flotation with KEX had recoveries greater than 90% for each mineral (pH = 8). After adding chitosan (0.67 mg/L), the pyrite recovery decreased to 23% (pH 4−9). In a flotation with mixtures of pyrite and galena, the recovery of galena was much higher than separately, concluding that chitosan is ...
