The froth flotation method, which is used for the processing of most non-ferrous ores,
involves the adsorption of both organic and inorganic reagents at the mineral/water …

Rare earth minerals (REMs) contain rare earth elements (REEs) that are important in
modern technologies due to their unique magnetic, phosphorescent, and catalytic …

Froth flotation is widely used as an effective method for separating apatite from dolomite.
However, it is of difficulty to realize the efficient separation of apatite and dolomite using the …

At present, traditional inhibitors applied for selective flotation of fluorapatite from dolomite
generally own low selectivity, high toxicity, large dosages and high costs. Thus, this research …

Water and oxygen have a significant effect on the sulfidation of smithsonite. However, few
studies considered the water and oxygen effects, and the roles of water and oxygen in the …

The flotation of rare earth minerals, which is of current interest in the mineral processing
field, is challenging owing to the dissolution of gangue minerals. In this study, dissolved …

The flotation behavior of bastnaesite, a major mineral source of rare earth elements, is
strongly affected by the dissolved species of gangue minerals that change the solution …

Oleic acid plays a crucial role as the primary collector in fluorite flotation. N-hydroxy-9, 10-
epoxy group-octadecanamide (N-OH-9, 10-O-ODA) is synthesized by modifying the …

Understanding the adsorption mechanism of Pb ion on smithsonite surface is crucial for the
sulphidation xanthate flotation of smithsonite. In this paper, the adsorption mechanism of Pb …

Understanding of flotation mechanism of monazite with oleate collector in saline water is
