The following calculation series in terms of reactivity and oxidizing ability were established by calculation: Au < Sb2S3 < MoS2 < PbS < CuFeS2 < FeAsS < FeS2. During the Hallimond tube flotation, natural gold grains demonstrated the highest recovery (70 %) in the рН = 5÷7 range compared to all the studied sulfides. Molybdenite and stibnite are floated at the level of 50 % under the same conditions. As pH increases towards the alkaline region, a decrease in the floatability of all sulfides except for chalcopyrite is observed. It was established that the highest recovery is achieved when the required time of conditioning with the collector is the inverse of their reactivity. The measured wetting angle of a drop of water on an untreated surface has the highest value (78°) for a gold plate, and the lowest one (67°) for pyrite, but the latter features the greatest increase in the wetting angle (by 15°) after treatment with butyl xanthate at a concentration of 10–4 mol/l and pH = 6. For molybdenite, treatment with butyl xanthate has practically no effect on the measured wetting angle. The Sb2S3 < PbS < CuFeS2 < FeAsS < FeS2 series is determined according to the electrode potential in the рН = 2.0÷5.6 range. Theoretical calculations and experimental data obtained when studying monofractions of sulfides and gold showed that experimental conditions (pH, conditioning time, collector concentration) significantly affect the floatability. The calculated reactivity of chemical sulfide compounds and gold in comparison with experimental results proved the importance of maintaining certain flotation conditions to create contrast in the floatability of minerals.","PeriodicalId":765,"journal":{"name":"Russian Journal of Non-Ferrous Metals","volume":"117 12 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.8,"publicationDate":"2022-08-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"84259794","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"材料科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

As extractants, we used di-2-ethylhexylphosphoric acid (D2EHPA), di-(2,4,4-trimethylpentyl) phosphinic acid (Cyanex 272), trialkylamine (TAA), tributyl phosphate (TBP), and aliphatic alcohols: octanol-1, 2-ethylhexanol, and a by-product of its production—distillation residue (TPRD). According to the results of research, it was established that a mixture of 40% TAA in 2-octanone and TPRD exhibits a high extraction ability with respect to boron(III); the degree of boron extraction is 60.7 and 74.5%, respectively. The effect of the acidity of the aqueous phase and the composition of organic mixtures on the extraction ability of organophosphorus acids D2EHPA and Cyanex272 in the extraction of calcium(II) and magnesium(II) was studied. The optimal concentration of individual extractants was found to be 20 vol % in Escaid 100 solvent and the composition of the mixture (vol %) 15 (D2EHPA) + 5 (Cyanex 272). Individual D2EHPA predominantly extracts calcium(II): extraction of 62% Ca(II) and 15% Mg(II). When using Cyanex272, the extraction of magnesium(II) predominates: extraction of 59% Mg(II) and 20% Ca(II). It is shown that the extraction mixture has higher performance than individual extractants for the extraction of Ca(II) and Mg(II) from nickel solutions in the range of pH 3.0–3.5, at which the coextraction of nickel(II) is negligible. With increasing pH values, the extraction of Ca(II) decreases owing to the increasing extraction of nickel and the displacement of calcium by it from the organic phase. The results of the extraction purification of the nickel electrolyte of JSC Kola MMC with an extraction mixture in the Ni form to exclude pH adjustment at each stage of the process are presented.

To solve this problem, it is necessary to determine the need for anode paste. The method for calculating the specific anode paste consumption used at the enterprises of the aluminum industry has a large error. The article discusses the main errors of this technique, shows the stages of calculating the flow rate of the anode paste, assesses the adequacy of the calculations, and gives recommendations for improving the technique. In general, the considered methodology adequately reflects the processes of carbon consumption; however, the final result of the calculations may differ significantly from the real one. The values taken constant to simplify the calculation, in fact, can change during the electrolysis, which leads to a significant change in the final result of the calculations. For example, an increase in the fraction of CO₂ from 0.45 to 0.5 leads to a decrease in the anode paste consumption by 15.3 kg/t Al. At the same time, it is known that, with the onset of the anode effect, the composition of the anode gases changes sharply: the fraction of CO₂ decreases, and the fraction of CO increases. In summer, at high ambient temperatures, both the proportion of vaporized pitch and the proportion of anodes with an increased surface temperature rise. A change in the latter to 0.25 leads to an increase in anode paste consumption by 6.6 kg/t Al. The same applies to oxidation in air. The number of depressurized cells may increase, which will increase the carbon consumption. It is necessary to pay attention to the factors affecting the quality of the anode. Incorrectly selected particle size distribution or worn equipment can significantly degrade the quality of the anode and lead to an increase in carbon consumption.
