In the attempt to process lower-grade ores, mineral flotation has taken centre stage as the preferred recovery route. However, in many instances, the froth product does not have a high grade due to the entrainment of gangue minerals. Industry has solved this challenge by introducing froth washing mechanisms. Clean wash water is introduced into or on top of …
These species later on were observed to interact with gangue minerals [31,32,33,34], inducing a hydrophilic surface to gangue silicates [31,32,33,34], which is the anticipated depression process of sodium silicate . Therefore, in the flotation separation the gangue silicate particles have little or no affinity towards the collector molecules ...
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 …
An important criterion of the separation of minerals by the froth floatation method is that the size of the particles of the ores must be very small equivalent to powder form. This is very important because the heavier and bigger particle …
Interaction between mineral and collector should take place to run the froth flotation. Modifiers change the characteristics of a mineral and insist it attaches with the collector. Example: lime and soda ash (pH modifier), phosphates and silicates (anionic modifier), Starch and …

Froth flotation is a good example of an engineering "system", in that the various important parameters are highly inter-related, as shown in Figure 1. ...
Froth flotation is one of the steps which is generally performed before roasting and it deals with the surface chemistry of liquids and of the minerals to be separated. ... Sodium silicate, [31 ...

The coastal lines of India are rich in placer deposits of valuable heavy minerals such as ilmenite, garnet, rutile, zircon, and sillimanite. Sillimanite, an important mineral for refractory application, is mainly recovered by flotation technique from its associated major gangue mineral, quartz by imparting selective surface hydrophobicity on sillimanite using a …
Sodium silicate, also called water glass, has been widely used in the flotation process as depressant of unwanted minerals, mostly silicates (Park and Jeon 2010; Rao et al. 2011a;Foucaud et al ...
Russia and South Africa are the world's leading producers of platinum group elements (PGEs). This places them in a unique position regarding the supply of these two key industrial commodities. The purpose of this paper is to provide a comparative high-level overview of aspects of the geological occurrence, mineralogy, and processing by flotation of the …

Marco, If you are floating sand from fibrous silicates, you are really floating silica away from silicates. the floation of silica is usually done at very low pH (2) and you use petroleum sulfonates to float the silica. The problem you have here is that the fibrous silicates will cause rheology problems in the pulp.
