130 Method and apparatus for treating animal waste and wastewater US10679770 2003-10-06 US07005068B2 2006-02-28 Robert O. Hoffland
Novel methods and apparatuses are disclosed for the treatment of wastewater to reduce often associated offensive odors by promoting aerobic conditions through decreasing the amount of oxygen required to maintain aerobic cultures and/or aerobic biological activity in the wastewater. Also, the wastewater is screened or otherwise separated the wastewater to remove or concentrate the solids which are anaerobically digested. By concentrating the solids, a smaller digester can be used. The anaerobic digestion produces biogas that may be collected and used, or burned by a flare or oxidized by a semipermeable membrane to deodorize the biogas. The heat produced from the biogas may have a variety of uses, including raising the temperature of the anaerobic digester and the bacterial metabolism. The wastewater is also clarified to remove nitrogenous and organic carbon wastes.

A method for optimising a mineral recovery process. A slurry 10 is fed to a conditioning step 20. The condition slurry 30 is then provided to a flotation circuit 40 to recover a concentrate 50. The remainder of the slurry is then rejected as tail 60 or passed for further processing. The present invention provides apparatus for analysing a sample stream 100 of the slurry. A sample stream 100 is provided to an analysis device 200 which treats the sample with an oxidising gas similar to the oxidative treatment 20. Several parameters are measured before and/or after the oxidative treatment of the slurry. The flotability characteristic of the slurry is then determined as a function of the measured parameter(s). The result is used to optimise mineral recovery. This apparatus can be used intermittently or continuously to provide on-going optimisation of the mineral recovery circuit.
135 Dore slag treatment US334897 1981-12-28 US4404022A 1983-09-13 Peter W. Godbehere
A method is disclosed for treating dore slag resulting from smelting of a dore furnace charge, by grinding such slag and then subjecting the obtained pulp to froth flotation in the presence of a suitable frother and collector to produce a precious metals concentrate which is then filtered and returned to the dore furnace with the next charge. The tails from the froth flotation may then be finely ground and subjected to several additional flotation stages to improve recovery of the precious metals, and the entire operation is preferably carried out as a closed loop process so that only the tailings from the rougher flotation are removed and shipped to the smelter.

139 Apparatus for the float concentration of ore US98363 1979-11-28 US4284499A 1981-08-18 Brij M. Moudgil; Booker W. Morey
An apparatus and a method for concentrating an ore to recover valuable minerals from the ore is disclosed. The apparatus is based upon flotation separation techniques and comprises a trough into which is fed a slurry of ore particles which have been conditioned with a flotation reagent. The trough has a side extending outwardly forming a downwardly sloping flat table. The slurry of conditioned ore particles flows out of the trough and downwardly along the sloping table. Positioned along the sloping table is a disperser for dispersing larger particles up and into the slurry, which larger particles are generally along the surface of the sloping table. The sloping table is equipped with at least one aerator positioned along the flow path of the slurry, downstream of the disperser which aerates the conditioned ore slurry. The particles coated with the flotation reagent form agglomerates with gas bubbles produced by the aerator. These agglomerates float at a higher level within the slurry than the non-coated, non-agglomerating ore particles. A splitter is positioned near an open end of the sloping table. The splitter height above the surface of the sloping table is adjustable for intersecting the conditioned ore slurry at differing levels. The splitter separates the agglomerative, coated particles floating at a higher level from the non-agglomerative, non-coated particles floating at a lower level in the slurry.
