Flotation of Iron Ores: A Review

The impact of the zeta potential and surface chemistry on flotation and deslime is also discussed. The aim of this paper is to provide a well-detailed, well-referenced source for the current status of iron ore flotation, and thus provide a useful guide to its future development and to further improve flotation performance for iron ore.

Iron ore flotation with environmentally friendly reagents

The Sydvaranger magnetite mine closed in 1996 due to low iron ore prices and was reopened in 2009. The flowsheet has remained more or less as in the old plant, based upon two grinding steps followed by magnetic separation. The magnetite is free of harmful elements and should be attractive on the high quality market. This requires a concentrate containing less …

Reagents in iron ores flotation

Primary fatty amines, utilised in the pioneer USBM process, are no longer employed in the flotation of iron ores. They were modified with the insertion of the polar group (O–CH 2) 3 between the radical R and the polar head NH 2 of the primary amine. Due to the presence of the covalent bond C–O, characteristic of the organic function ether, reagents belonging to this …

Froth Flotation of Iron Ores

With the depleting reserves of high-grade iron ore in the world, froth flotation has become increasingly important to process intermediate- and low-grade iron ore in an attempt to meet the rapidly growing demand on the international market. In over half a century's practice in the iron ore industry, froth flotation has been established as an efficient method to remove …

Froth flotation process and its application

The sulfide ore flotation process can be studied by both chemical and electrochemical phenomena considering the interfacial energies. A broad application of this process in industrial field is the flotation of iron ores which is of two types: direct and reverse flotation. The later one

Effects of surfactants combination on iron ore flotation

For iron ore flotation, different applications, such as anionic-anionic collectors, anionic-cationic collectors, and ionic-nonionic surfactants became common in reverse anionic and cationic flotation to increase solubility in order to reduce collector consumption and improve metallurgical results (Rao and Forssberg, 1997, Filippov et al., 2010 ...

This article aims to investigate the direct reuse effect of process water containing residual amine from tailings and concentrate pulps on the performance of the cationic reverse flotation of iron ore. An iron ore sample collected after the desliming operation in the Conceição Industrial Unit (Minas Gerais) was used for the bench-scale flotation studies. The experiments used recirculated ...
