Efficient separation of mica from feldspar and quartz using flotation in quaternary ammonium salt system
Octadearyl dimethyl ammonium chloride (STAC) and sodium oleate (NaOL) were employed as a combined cationic-anion collector to selective separation of mica from feldspar and quartz through flotation. The superior separation effect was obtained at the pH of 12 when using a 120 mg/L of the collector concentration with the STAC and NaOL molar ratio of 1:4. Both the grade and recovery of mica exceeding 60 % in concentrate, while feldspar and quartz were effectively depressed to approximately 10 %. The selective flotation separation of mica from feldspar and quartz was achieved. The mica surface displayed multilayer reagent adsorption with synergistic interaction of the collectors STAC and NaOL. The cooperative adsorption phenomenon was conspicuously absent on feldspar and quartz surfaces. The study establishes a novel alkaline flotation strategy (pH of 12) for mica separation, circumventing traditional acidic conditions while maintaining high selectivity.
期刊介绍:
The purpose of the journal is to provide for the rapid publication of topical papers featuring the latest developments in the allied fields of mineral processing and extractive metallurgy. Its wide ranging coverage of research and practical (operating) topics includes physical separation methods, such as comminution, flotation concentration and dewatering, chemical methods such as bio-, hydro-, and electro-metallurgy, analytical techniques, process control, simulation and instrumentation, and mineralogical aspects of processing. Environmental issues, particularly those pertaining to sustainable development, will also be strongly covered.
