摘要:
The invention refers to a process to separate silicates and alkaline earth metal carbonates implementing at least one hydrophobically modified polyalkyleneimine, wherein: i) the polyalkyleneimine is hydrophobically modified by replacement of all or part of the hydrogens of their primary and/or secondary amino groups by functional group R, where R comprises a linear or branched or cyclic alkyl and/or aryl group and contains 1 to 32 carbon atoms; ii) prior to modification, the polyalkyleneimine has at least 3 alkyleneimine repeat units and a molecular weight of between 140 and 100 000 g/mol; iii) modification of the polyalkyleneimine results in an increase in the atomic C amount, relative to the unmodified polyalkyleneimine, of between 1 and 80%.

The invention additionally refers to a silicate-containing product and an alkaline earth metal carbonate-containing product obtained by the process of the invention, and to their uses.
摘要:
Modified resins are disclosed for removing a wide variety of solids and/or ionic species from the liquids in which they are suspended and/or dissolved. These modified resins are especially useful as froth flotation depressants in the beneficiation of many types of materials (e.g., mineral and metal ores), including the beneficiation of impure coal comprising clay impurities, as well as in the separation of valuable bitumen from solid contaminants such as sand. The modified resins are also useful for treating aqueous liquid suspensions to remove solid particulates, as well as for removing metallic ions in the purification of water. The modified resins comprise a base resin that is modified with a coupling agent, which is highly selective for binding to solid contaminants and especially siliceous materials such as sand or clay.
摘要:
A process for the beneficiation of lead or copper-lead sulphide ore or concentrate containing calcium and magnesium carbonates wherein the ore or concentrate is conditioned with a limited amount of sulphuric acid to form an acidic slurry and subjecting the acidic slurry to froth flotation whereby an upgraded concentrate and a tailing comprising calcium and magnesium sulphate are obtained.
摘要:
Fine coals suspended in a coal flotation froth are more efficiently filtered when the flotation froth is subjected to a thickening operation prior to filtration. The thickening operation is accomplished by the use of a clarifier or thickener.
摘要:
A method for dewatering froth fines obtained during the separation of coal, in which a discontinuously operating sieve scraping centrifuge is filled with the froth fines, the mixture is centrifuged at a low rotational speed to remove a major portion of the liquid and to deposit a layer of solid material which acts as a filter aid, and the remaining mixture is then centrifuged at a high rotational speed. The first run-off is reintroduced into the centrifuge to reduce its high solids content.
摘要:
An improved method of separating minerals from phosphate ores is described. The addition of silica depressants to flotation slurries substantially increases the efficiency of mineral separation and thereby reduces the number of flotation steps required to obtain a good yield of ore having the desired mineral concentration.
摘要:
DISCLOSED HEREIN IS A PROCESS TO REDUCE THE AMOUNT OF SOLIDS IN A SECONDARY FROTH TO A LEVEL WHICH IS ECONONICAL BY SUBJECTING THE SECONDARY FROTH TO A WATER WASHING OPRATION WHEREIN THE FROTH IS DEAERATED, COLLAPSED AND SUBJECTED TO INTIMATE CONTACTING WITH FRESH HOT WATER. THE CONTACTING CAUSES THE BITUMEN CONTAINED WITHIN THE FROTH TO ALLOW THE RELEASE OF THE SOLIDS EN-
TRAINED WI HIN THE BITUMEN, THE WATER TO SEPARATE FROM THE BITUMEN, AND THE RECOVERY OF BITUMEN FROM THE SECONDARY FROTH.
摘要:
Lubricant-grade molybdenite is produced from byproduct molybdenite flotation concentrates of porphyry copper ores by a sequence of purification steps which include controlled grinding to liberate contaminant minerals and to flatten the molybdenite, followed by a flotation step for the selective recovery of the so-flattened molybdenite. The grinding is controlled to soften impact and minimize duration of the grinding period.
