Cobalt (Co) is a transition metal featuring unique physical properties which makes its use
critical for many high-tech applications such as high strength materials, magnets and most …

Malachite is one of the main minerals used for the industrial enrichment and recovery of
copper oxide resources, and copper ions are unavoidable metal ions in the flotation pulp …

Although azurite is one of the most important copper oxide minerals, the recovery of this
mineral via sulfidization-xanthate flotation is typically unsatisfactory. The present work …

Xanthates are organic synthesized substances with a potentially wide range of applications.
They may serve as essential components of many compounds or materials that also play a …

Herein, we investigated the effects of mixed collectors with varying alkyl chain lengths and
ligand types on the hydrophobicity of the spodumene–feldspar flotation system. Various …

In this study, the flotation separation performances of malachite from calcite were
investigated using a new chelating collector S-carboxymethyl-O, O'-dibutyl dithiophosphate …

Large amounts of solid wastes are produced in copper and aluminum smelting processes,
which not only cause losses of valuable resources but also threaten the ecology and …

Among copper oxide ores, the reserves of azurite are second only to those of malachite.
However, little information is available regarding the flotation behavior and mechanism of …

In this work, a novel surfactant, O, O'-bis (2-butoxyethyl) ammonium dithiophosphate (BEAT),
was synthesized and first employed as a collector for the flotation separation of galena from …

The surface species transformation of oxidized carrollite processing with NaHS and KBX
was investigated. Flotation and contact angle tests indicate that the combination of NaHS …
