241 Activator-frother composition US140578 1993-10-21 US5389274A 1995-02-14 Hector C. Fernandez
An activator-frother composition of good selectivity which can be used as additional reagent for the flotation of minerals of finely ground sulfide type and as sole reagent in the treatment of flotation tailings, which consists of about 1% to 10% by weight of pine oil, about 10% to 30% by weight of sodium sulfide, about 20% to 40% by weight of sodium bicarbonate. The composition has the advantage of requiring little time of homogenization and conditioning in order to be sufficiently soluble, to be stable within a wide pH range, and not to be contaminating.
242 Phosphate rock benefication US814437 1991-12-30 US5221466A 1993-06-22 Steven C. Garcia; Charles T. Staniek
This invention provides an improved method for the rougher flotation of phosphate ore using sodium carbonate to control the pH at about 9.6-10.5. The method facilitates improved recovery of phosphate from its ore; in addition the Bone Phosphate of Lime (BPL) of the phosphate concentrate increases, which provides further advantages in that subsequent steps are improved by virtue of receiving a feed of greater purity. There are also certain environmental advantages obtained when ammonia is replaced with sodium carbonate and the operational safety of the flotation system is enhanced when ammonia is replaced with sodium carbonate.

247 Chemical conditioning of fine coal for improved flotation and pyrite rejection US58909 1987-06-05 US4828686A 1989-05-09 Jan D. Miller; Yi Ye
A method for enhancing hydrophobicity of high volatile bituminous coal and coals of a lower grade and for separating ash and sulfur (including pyritic sulfur) contaminants from coal in a floatation process. The method comprises the steps of grinding the coal to small particulate size, forming a slurry of the ground coal and mixing the slurry with at least one compound selected from the group comprising inorganic peroxy compounds, the preferred compound being oxone which is a mixture of potassium monopersulfate, potassium hydrogen sulfate and potassium sulfate. This slurry is allowed to react to condition the particulate coal and develop increased hydrophobicity for the coal while depressing the sulfur contaminants and ash during froth flotation.

Accordingly, one embodiment of the present invention comprises first conditioning a pulp of an ore containing copper sulfide and oxidized copper sulfide minerals in the presence of an alkaline agent, next subjecting the so conditioned ore to a second conditioning step in the presence of a collector, subsequently adding a surface modifying agent to the so treated ore at a rate and in an amount sufficient to decrease the platinum electrode potential of the pulp when measured against a saturated calomel electrode to a minimum of -100 mV, then conditioning the ore only for a time sufficient to achieve intimate contact between the ore particles, and thereafter subjecting the so treated ore to conventional flotation.
253 Process for the froth flotation of complex metal compounds US545510 1983-10-26 US4561970A 1985-12-31 Seppo O. Heimala; Kaarlo M. J. Saari
The invention relates to a process for the froth flotation of complex ores. In accordance with this invention, froth flotation is carried out by using a collector and froth flotation conditions for which it has been calculated in advance that the said mineral and the collector form stable surface compounds. The conditions include the electrochemical potential of the system, the concentration of the collector, the pH, and other physical factors. According to this invention it has been observed that by adjusting the potential and the concentration of the collector separately for each mineral, each mineral can be frothed out separately from the slurry, the process being in this case specific for the mineral. When so desired, the different minerals of the ore slurry can also be frothed simultaneously by selecting the conditions where the Pourfaix-type diagrams of all minerals in said complex ore overlap under the conditions in question.

Dialkyl xanthogen formates are known collectors, but the reaction that produces them, between an alkaline alkyl xanthate and an alkaline chloroformate, also causes side reactions which produce varying amounts of xanthic anhydride, carbonyl sulfide and dialkyl carbonate as by-products, and yield of formate may be as low as 30%. There are here disclosed processing schemes for controlling the amount and type of products and by-products produced in the reaction, and flotation tests show that certain product mixtures are significantly improved collectors for sulfide ores.

258 Preparation of dialkyldithiophosphinates US232102 1981-02-06 US4308214A 1981-12-29 Allan J. Robertson; Tony Ozog
Dialkylphosphine is added to a mixture of sulfur and water at 50.degree.-90.degree. C. After approximately 25% of the dialkylphosphine is charged, an alkali, such a sodium hydroxide, is added to neutralize the dialkyldithiophosphinic acid that forms. At this elevated temperature the neutralization reaction proceeds rapidly thereby preventing any alkali from reacting with the sulfur to form sulfides. Dialkyldithiophosphinate yields from this process are on the order of about 95-98%.

260 Method for brightening natural calcitic ores US26362 1979-04-02 US4293097A 1981-10-06 Herbert I. Lewis; Anthony D. McConnell; William M. Price
A method is disclosed for processing a natural calcitic ore to yield a finely divided calcium carbonate particulate of very high brightness characteristics. The natural calcitic ore is initially coarse-milled to produce a product wherein no more than 5% by weight of the particulate is +325 mesh, and no more than 35% by weight of the particles are of less than 2 microns E.S.D. This coarse-milled product is then subjected as an aqueous slurry containing less than 40% and preferably less than 30% solids by weight, to a froth flotation, which separates with the froth the relatively coarse colorbodies liberated in the initial grinding. Preferable compositions for use in the froth flotation comprise 1-substituted-2-alkyl imidazolines or the salt derivatives thereof, with such compounds being utilized in admixture with a substantially non-polar aliphatic compound having from 10 to 20 carbon atoms in its longest straight chain. The purified underflow from the flotation step is dewatered to at least 60% solids by weight, and is wet-milled, as for example in a sand mill, to yield an output product wherein at least 80% by weight of the resultant particulate has an E.S.D. of less than 2 microns, the product being further characterized by a brightness of at least 95 on the G.E. scale.
