Abstract

The mineral processing technology of Anshan-type iron ores has been developed in a rapid speed in recent years, and the combined flowsheet at the core of anionic reverse flotation has become a mainstream in the beneficiation of Anshan-type iron ores in China. With the successful application of this combined flowsheet, some obvious problems are also emerging. Such as high requirement of pulp temperature, complex reagent system, high cost of reagent consumption and so on. In view of this, we have carried out an experimental study on the separation of Anshan type iron ore by cationic reverse flotation. A new collector (named KBD) which is mixed amines have been developed. On this basis, the actual mineral separation experiment is carried out in the laboratory. With KBD as the collector, and starch and sodium hexametaphoshate as the depressant, has resulted in an iron concentrate of 68.16% and recovery rate of 89.71%. The determination of the electrokinetic potential and the infra-red spectroscopic analysis show that KBD can effectively and priorly adsorbed to the surface of quartz and has greatly change the electrokinetic potential of quartz. The interaction of the depressing agent has increased the differences of the floatabilities in quartz and hermitite and changed the surface electric property so that the effective separation has been realized.
