Early-stage application of process mineralogy methodologies for mineral tracking in flotation of rare earth elements (REE)-bearing minerals from a deposit in Norway

Process mineralogy methodologies were applied for mineral tracking in flotation of rare earth elements (REE)-bearing minerals.

Technological assessments on recent developments in fine and coarse particle flotation systems

The present work highlighted the main concerns and advances in treating fine and coarse particles, focusing on the flotation cell designs.

Froth flotation of fluorite: A review

The present review sheds new light on the deep understanding of fluorite flotation, the future synthesis of reagents, as well as their schemes in practical use.

Three-phase contact formation between an air bubble and solid surfaces with different hydrophobicity degrees in liquid

The article discusses the mechanism of bubble-solid adhesion in relation to the hydrophobicity and zeta potential of the solid surface.

Recent advances in the treatment and recycling of mineral processing wastewater

This review helps better understanding of the state of the art of MPW management, treatment, and recycling.

Recent advancements in metallurgical processing of marine minerals

We update the information published so far in peer-reviewed and technical literature, and briefly provide the future perspectives for processing of marine mineral deposits.

Amino-acids surfactants and n-octanol mixtures─sustainable, efficient, and dynamically triggered foaming systems

The foaming properties of C12-ALA, C12-LEU, and C12-PHE surfactants mixed with C8OH were thoroughly investigated via surface tension and foamability experiments and complemented by all-atom detail MD simulations.

Bubble formation and motion in liquids—A review

Short review of analytical and semi-analytical #models for predicting bubble terminal velocity in ultra-pure and contaminated waters.

Effect of ultrasound pre-treatment on carbonaceous copper-bearing shale flotation

Ultrasound pre-treatment enhanced copper-bearing shale flotation recovery.

Effects of operating parameters on residence time distribution in a REFLUX flotation cell

RTD measurements were performed to characterize the type of flow regime in the REFLUX Flotation Cell (RFC), and to investigate the impacts of operational parameters, including bias, feed flux, and gas flux, using a laboratory-scale RFC-100.

Properties of self-hardened CaO-added bauxite residue pellets, and their behavior in hydrogen reduction followed by leaching and magnetic separation for iron and alumina recovery

H2-reduction of a bauxite residue was investigated from characteristic and processing aspects. The grade of metallic iron improved as magnetic field intensity decreased.

Insight into the influence of surface wettability on flotation properties of solid particles – Critical contact angle in flotation

The minimum value of the contact angle (critical contact angle) for effective flotation to occur must be exceeded. There is a qualitative and quantitative correlation of floatability with particle hydrophobicity (wetting angle).
