1. Collector mixtures and their synergistic effect on quartz floatability
Abstract Sinergy is the interaction of two or more agents to produce a combined effect greater than the sum of their separate effects. Etherdiamine yields superior results for quartz floatability in a Hallimond tube and higher selectivity in the reverse bench scale cationic flotation of an iron ore, when compared to ethermonoamine. Blending these collectors

2. Characterization of a complex carbonate-silicate apatite ore and its concentration by a two-stage anionic flotation method
Abstract A carbonate-silicate low weathering phosphate ore from an igneous origin deposit in Southeastern Brazil presents a challenge mainly for apatite flotation from its gangue minerals, calcite and dolomite, plus the presence of phlogopite, diopside, magnetite, richterite, ilmenite, vermiculite, quartz and many other minor impurities. Recently, selectivit

3. MLA and optical microscopy as complementary techniques to the iron ore geometallurgical studies
Abstract Mineral liberation is an important variable to be considered in the iron ore geometallurgical studies, especially since it provides information leading to the understanding of the ore’s behaviour in the beneficiation process, mainly when harder ores are concerned. Nowadays, the professionals and researchers in the mineral industry have been using

4. Production of nanostructured crystalline composite using residual ashes from flocculated sludge burning process in a poultry slaughterhouse wastewater treatment system
Abstract Nanostructured crystalline composite (activated carbon) was synthesized from residual ashes of the burning process of the sludge generated in the flotation step of a poultry slaughterhouse and was used for Allura red dye adsorption. The ashes were chemically activated using two types of reagents, H2O2 and H3PO4, and the structure, morphology, and su

5. Polyacrylamides in reverse cationic iron ore flotation: bench scale study
Abstract A bench scale study was carried out to investigate the influence of polyacrylamides as co-depressant in a blend with starch depressant on the reverse cationic iron ore flotation. The results indicated that the use of polyacrylamides as dual function polymer should be an alternative to improve the flotation process. These polymers act as a depressant

6. Fundamental bioflotation aspects of hematite using an extracted Rhodococcus opacus by-product
Abstract The aim of this study is to assess the floatability of hematite using a crude biosurfactant (BS) extracted from Rhodococcus opacus. Throughout high-pressure ethanol extraction, unrefined surfactant was extracted from the bacteria with a yield of 0.3 g/L. An FTIR analysis on this extract, shows the presence of alcohol (–OH) and ketone (C=O) groups,

7. Liquid-phase RTD studies in a flotation column: an analysis between tanks-in-series and axial dispersion models
Abstract The objective of the present study is to evaluate the fluid dynamics of a flotation column (2" in diameter and 6 m in height) based on gas hold-up measurements and, in particular, by applying the liquid-phase RTD (residence time distribution) technique. Additionally, a comparative study is performed between different methodologies used to determine

8. Influence of Mn2+ ions on depression of quartz and spessartine in gondite ore
Abstract Low-grade manganese ores that are composed of manganese oxides, wad, quartz, iron oxides, gibbsite, and especially of spessartine (Mn3Al2(SiO4)3) are known as gondite. Spessartine is a mineral with a high content of silica (SiO2) and alumina (Al2O3) that causes a decrease of the enrichment in manganese oxide concentrates by flotation, giving this o

9. Hematite and quartz microflotation using millet starch as depressant
Abstract Brazil is among the world's largest iron ore producers. The standard concentration method is reverse cationic flotation using amines, and their derivatives, such as quartz collector and corn (as either grits, flour, or starch) as the hematite depressant. Corn is considered cheap, abundant, and available all around the country. However, its demand ha

10. Forecasting mass and metallurgical balance at a gold processing plant using modern multivariate statistics
Abstract Knowing the quantity and the quality of products and tailings generated by a beneficiation plant, even before ore processing, can make the mining operations more sustainable, more profitable, and safer. To forecast these values, it is necessary to submit samples to batch tests which mimic the processing workflow used on an industrial scale. Then, th

11. Influence of the pH regulator on the dolomite hydrophobization process
Abstract A study was carried out to investigate the combined effect of released ions in the pulp by pH regulator and mineral surface on dolomite flotation. The tests were carried out using a dolomite sample in a bench flotation cell with automatic froth remover. Zeta potential measurements, solution conductivity and FTIR analysis were done to support the int

12. Effect of calcium concentration on calcite flotation from apatite using carbonic gas
Abstract The flotation process currently considered for apatite concentration from the Santa Quitéria phosphate deposit (Brazil), involves bulk flotation of apatite and calcite with anionic collector at pH=10 followed by calcite flotation at pH=5.5, adjusted with H3PO4. Although this concept is efficient from the point of view of separation between apatite
