Nonetheless, the efficient flotation of carbonate-rich phosphate ores is daunting and beneficiation frailties are usually expected, if not encountered (Yang et al., 2021a).Challenges mainly arise from the altered crystalline structure of apatite, characterized with a highly CO 3 2− substituted lattice. Complications might also steam from the presence of multiple gangue …
In the conventional flotation cell, the detachment of particles from the bubbles due to turbulence is the main reason for the decline in the coarse particle recovery (De et al., 2007, Fuerstenau et al., 2007).However, turbulence is imperative in the flotation cell to bring about bubble particle collision, keep particles in suspension, and disperse air flow into fine bubbles.
dolomite is higher than that of apatite, which is due to the strong reaction between calcium lignosulfonate and the Ca sites on dolomite. In addi-tion, there is a hydrogen bond between calcium lignosulfonate and dolomite, which further prevents the adsorption of sodium oleate to dolo-mite, thus greatly inhibiting the flotation of dolomite.
As a commonly non-metallic element, phosphorus plays a pivotal role in living cells and is widely used in agriculture and medicine engineering (Feng et al., 2022, ...

Froth products and tailings were collected, filtered, dried, and weighed to calculate the flotation recovery
The separation of dolomite from apatite has been recognized as one of the most difficult subjects in mineral processing due to the similarities in their physiochemical properties. In this study, selective surfactants were used with a fatty acid soap collector to improve the flotation performance of separating dolomite from high magnesium phosphate ores.;Three surfactants, …
Micro flotation tests were conducted in a XFGC flotation machine (Jilin Exploration Machinery Plant, China) with a 40 mL cell. 2.0 g of samples were weighed and placed in the flotation cell, 40 mL of deionized water was added and stirred for 1 min, then 0.1 mol·L −1 H 2 SO 4 or H 3 PO 4 solution was added to adjust the pH value of the pulp ...
In this paper, Na 2 ATP was first applied as a depressant in the flotation separation of magnesite and dolomite with sodium oleate. The significant influence of Na 2 ATP on the flotation behavior of magnesite and dolomite was investigated via flotation tests. The selective adsorption behavior of Na 2 ATP on different mineral surfaces was studied through adsorption …
The flotation cell volume is approximately 170 mL, made of glass, and comprised of three parts - the lower part has a silicate frit at the bottom; the extensor part connects the lower part and the upper part, and the upper part is where the floated fractions can be collected. ...

1. Introduction. In phosphate ore dressing, the removal of magnesium element represented by dolomite and silicon element represented by quartz is the key step to obtain qualified quality phosphorus concentrate [28].A fatty acid anion collector combined with a phosphate depressant can be used to remove dolomite from phosphate rock [4], [28], while …
In general, during apatite flotation, dolomite especially fines easily enters into apatite concentrates through attachment to bubbles or entrainment, ...
