What is the impact of water quality on flotation operations?

In the choice of water or in the ore, it may contain soluble salts that affect the action of the agent and minerals and cause mineral activation or inhibition. Typically carbonates, sulfates, phosphates, calcium, magnesium, sodium, chloride and silicon compound.

If the calcium content in the water is mostly hard water, a large amount of the agent is consumed when the hydrocarbon is floated in the hard water with the hydrocarbon acid and the soap.

Mineral water in contact with the metal, the water will contain some metal ions such as iron, copper, zinc and the like. If the contact is sulfide minerals, these metals in the water will become sulfate, mineral matter becomes difficult. In addition, the amount of oxygen dissolved in water has a major impact on the flotation process. Due to the adsorption of oxygen on the mineral surface, the hydrophobicity of the mineral is enhanced , and the interaction of some collectors ( yellow and black medicine ) with the mineral surface is promoted , thereby accelerating the flotation process and improving the flotation index. However, when the floating water contains a large amount of organic substances ( such as humus and microorganisms ) , the oxygen dissolved in the water is consumed, thereby reducing the flotation speed of the sulfide minerals, and in severe cases, destroying the entire flotation process.

Reduction Gearbox

The reduction gear box adopts the combination of bevel gear and sprocket, and the structure is stable and reliable. The built-in spring tensioning block can automatically adjust the transmission tension of the chain, and the perfect sealing system can ensure the stability and reliability of the gearbox under long-term load in the field. Suitable for driving large medium and low speed rolling bodies, snow plows, riding lawn mower.
