The effect of three hydrophilic non-electrolytes on the flotation of ZnS has been studied using a Fuerstenau microflotation cell. The rate of flotation increases with increasing concentrations of urea(OC(NH2)2), but is unaffected by thiourea and slightly decreased by sucrose. This effect of urea was observed with all samples of ZnS (synthetic and natural) studied, is unaffected by extensive purification of the urea and by the presence or absence of O2, and is reversed by dilution. Urea also increases the rate of flotation (in a Partridge and Smith cell) in the absence of frother. Surface tension measurements showed the absence of detectable concentrations of surfactants in the urea. The presence of urea has no effect on the rate of sedimentation (i.e. on the degree of aggregation) of ZnS or on the volume of water carried over during flotation. It is suggested that the effect of urea is (at least in part) to increase the rate of bubble-particle attachment by modifying the structure of water.  相似文献

A modified Warburg manometer has been used to study the relatively slow uptake of O2 by particles of pure synthetic ZnS in aqueous suspension at 26°C. When dry ZnS is placed in unbuffered water there is an immediate (t12 < 5 s) fall in pH (corresponding to the uptake of one HO? for approximately every 12.5 surface atoms of zinc) and a fairly rapid (t12 ~ 5 min) uptake of O2 (corresponding to one O2 for approximately every 20 surface atoms of zinc), followed by a slow steady-state uptake of O2 (equivalent to one O2 per approx. 5000 surface atoms of zinc per min). The subsequent addition of Cu(II) ions causes an immediate increase in the rate of O2-uptake which gradually reverts to the steady-state rate; this provides evidence for a distinct intermediate stage in the formation of Cu(II)-activated ZnS.  相似文献

Anionic and cationic flotation of a Stillwater Complex chromite was studied as a function of pH and various pretreatments of the mineral. Aging the ground mineral in air markedly decreased anionic (sodium dodecylsulfate) flotation below pH3 and enhanced it above pH 4–5. Such aging increased cationic (dodecylammonium chloride) flotation in the basic pH region. Mildly preheating the mineral enhanced anionic flotation. Increased conditioning time in collector solution decreased anionic flotation. Strongly acid pretreating the mineral caused it to behave like a simple charged oxide toward both anionic and cationic flotation. These phenomena appear to be related to the effect of aging on the amounts of Fe(II) and Fe(III), of Cr(III) and Cr(VI) and of Mg(II) on the mineral's surface.  相似文献

The change in collectorless flotation of sphalerite with pH and Cu(II) concentration was correlated with the type and proportion of species present on the sphalerite surface. The solution and surface species were determined using a combination of analytical techniques including zeta potential measurement and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. An optimum copper concentration for maximum sphalerite flotation was identified, beyond which flotation decreased. This decrease in flotation coincided with the precipitation of copper hydroxide in neutral to mildly alkaline pH conditions. The hydrophobic polysulfide and hydrophilic copper hydroxide species were the main surface species influencing sphalerite flotation.  相似文献

高岭石对重金属离子的吸附机理及其溶液的pH条件   总被引:14,自引:0,他引:14  
高岭石对Cu^2+,Pb^2+离子的吸附实验及高岭石的溶解实验表明,高岭石对重金属离子的吸附有别于石英单一表面配位模式,离子交换和表面配位模式并存,并随溶液pH由酸性往碱性的变化发生规律性的演替:pH<6.5时主要表现为外圈层配位的离子交换吸附,且在pH<4时由于受到高岭石表层中铝的高溶出及溶液中较高离子强度的影响,高岭石对Cu^2+,Pb^2+离子的吸附率较低,pH为5~6时由于高岭石端面的荷电性为近中性,吸附率则有明显的提升并且表现为一个吸附平台;pH>6.5时离子交换和表面配位均为重要吸附机制,pH再升高时沉淀机制则起着重要作用。研究表明,pH调控高岭石-水界面溶解与质子化-去质子化反应过程,并影响着Cu^2+,Pb^2+离子的吸附行为。最后采用Sverjensky(1993)表面配位的物理模型对吸附结果作了描述。  相似文献

The adsorption of three copper species, the hydrated cupric ion, bisglycine Cu(II) and a Cu(II)-humic acid complex, on montmorillonite and imogolite at pH 7 was investigated by electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy. The spectra of the supernatant solutions indicated that adsorption of the glycine complexes was very much less than that of the uncomplexed ion for both minerals and that montmorillonite adsorbed significantly more Cu from the humic acid solution than did imogolite. In every case the adsorbed Cu was characterized by more than one type of chemical environment and the spectral parameters show differences between the adsorbed species depending on their freedom of movement and their mode and site of adsorption. Qualitatively similar spectra were obtained when the uncomplexed ion was adsorbed on either of the mineral species and it is suggested that simple Cu(II) ions were involved and that their coordination environments comprised water molecules and hydroxyl groups. With the bisglycine Cu(II) complexes, the spectra were characterized by two components which may be accounted for by adsorption at two different types of site in the structures. In each case one component had parameters that are similar to those of the bisglycine Cu(II) in the solid state, but the second component in the spectra of the montmorillonite sample was quite different to that obtained with imogolite. The Cu(II)-humic acid complex with montmorillonite gave spectra that were similar to that from copper humate, but with imogolite the spectra from the Cu(II)-humic acid system were similar to those obtained with the uncomplexed Cu(II) ion, indicating that imogolite is able to extract copper from humic acid.  相似文献

Potato starch and dextrins resulting from thermolysis of potato starch in the absence of reagents and presence of -amino acids are promising depressants for separation of lead and copper minerals present in the Polish industrial copper concentrates. The polysaccharides were used for differential xanthate flotation of the final industrial concentrates produced by flotation with sulfhydryl collectors in the absence of depressants. The polysaccharides depressed galena and provided froth concentrate rich in chalcocite and other copper minerals as well as cell product containing lead minerals. The best results of separation were obtained in the presence of plain dextrin prepared by a thermal degradation of potato starch. The industrial concentrate containing 18.5% Cu and 5.5% Pb was divided into a froth product containing 38.1% Cu with 77% recovery of copper and a cell product assaying 7.3% Pb with 83% recovery of lead. It was accomplished using 2500 g/t of dextrin, 50g/t of potassium ethyl xanthate, and 50 g/t of frother (α-terpineol). The pH of flotation was 8.0–8.2.  相似文献

A promising technique for the removal of heavy metal ions from wastewater streams involved firstly the ions adsorption on a colloidal precipitate (carrier) and then the separation of the loaded flocs (coagula) by a modified column flotation. Here, the effluent feed and the carrier (ferric hydroxide) enter smoothly by the top of the column through a special diffuser, in counter current with rising bubbles (100–600 μm diameter) generated by using recycled water, surfactant and air suction through a venturi. High separation values of the column flotation of the carrier precipitates were achieved, despite the high superficial flow rate and the high Fe+ 3 concentration utilized (> 60 mg L− 1 Fe). No rupture of colloidal carrier aggregates was observed and a low split was ensured by monitoring the concentrate (floated product) flow rate. Results indicated that best separation was attained by controlling the medium pH (for best heavy metal ion adsorption onto the carrier), followed by sodium oleate, used as “collector” and optimizing operating parameters (conditioning, flow rates, etc.). The column throughput reached 43 m h− 1 (m3 m− 2 h− 1), which is about 4 times the normal capacity of DAF-dissolved air flotation unit, the most used floater in wastewater treatment. Various metals (Cu, Ni, Pb, etc.) and molybdate ions present in synthetic and real effluent were successfully removed based on this colloidal adsorbing flotation principle. The process was also applied in a pilot scale to treat an industrial electroplating wastewater. Most of toxic metals (Cu, Ni and Zn) were reduced from initial concentrations of about of 2 to 10 mg L− 1, to below 0.5 to 1.0 mg L− 1, meeting local municipal discharge limits (but Cd ions). It is believed that flotation separation using medium-sized bubbles has great potential as a clean water and wastewater treatment technology.  相似文献

Hallimond tube flotation experiments have been carried out on the two calcium minerals scheelite and calcite using dodecylammonium chloride as collector. The main variables studied were the calcium ion concentration and the pH.In the case of scheelite, addition of calcium chloride markedly lowered the flotation recovery. Recovery was also lowered when the pH was reduced below about 10. Since it is known that the zeta potential of scheelite is almost independent of pH this confirms that co-adsorption of un-ionized amine is necessary for good flotation. Other un-ionized long-chain molecules can replace the amine; thus it was shown that excellent flotation can be obtained event at about pH 7 by adding dodecanol together with dodecylammonium chloride. With the completely ionic trimethyldodecylammonium chloride recoveries were poor and were independent of pH.In the case of calcite, calcium chloride had no immediate effect on flotation recovery, but at low collector concentrations marked depression occurred after many hours standing in the presence of calcium ions. The effect of pH on flotation of calcite was anomalous and there appear to be two pH regions in which recoveries are high.The results are discussed and attention is drawn to the need for more thorough studies of the calcium carbonate/water interface.  相似文献

The Ba2+ ion adsorption isotherms on β-MnO2 were of the Langmuir type. The endothermic heat of adsorption (40 kJ mol?1) is ascribed to entropy contributions associated with the Na+Ba2+ ion-exchange mechanism. The Ba2+ ion adsorption density was higher at pH 10 than that at pH 7, due to the more negative surface charge at the higher pH. Ba2+ ions were found to reverse the sign of the ζ potential of the MnO2 particles.More oleate was adsorbed by β-MnO2 in the presence of Ba2+ ions than in their absence. The oleate adsorption isotherms on Ba2+-activated MnO2 were of the Freundlich type and indicated an exothermic process. Hallimond flotation recovery of Ba2+-activated MnO2 was higher at pH 10 than at pH 7, although less oleate was adsorbed at the higher pH. At pH 7, Mn2+-activation led to higher recoveries than Ba2+-activation. It seems that the attraction between the surface and the activator plays an important rôle in determining the flotation recovery.  相似文献

A laboratory study of the batch flotation of chalcocite from chalcocite-quartz mixtures and of cuprite from cuprite-quartz mixtures with potassium ethyl xanthate as collector has shown that the oxidation-reduction state of the flotation pulp can have a pronounced influence on mineral floatabilities. At pH 11 chalcocite floated over a relatively narrow Eh range of about 300 mV; pH had no influence on the potential of the lower flotation boundary in reducing conditions but had a significant effect on the potential of the upper boundary in oxidizing conditions. Below this upper limit, the floatability was reversible with respect to Eh. Provided the Eh was in correct region chalcocite could be floated in the absence of measurable concentrations of dissolved oxygen.Cuprite displayed a high level of floatability with ethyl xanthate for which, by contrast with chalcocite, no flotation limit in reducing conditions was found; over a small range of potentials close to zero, its behaviour was strongly pH dependent.An attempt to account for the floatabilities of chalcocite and cuprite in terms of the formation of cuprous ethyl xanthate on their surfaces did not lead to correlations with the observed behaviour in reducing conditions but provided a rough correlation with the upper flotation potential limit. It is believed that more detailed and properly controlled comparative flotation studies of the chalcocite-xanthate and cuprite-xanthate systems could help to resolve some of the uncertainties associated with the effects of Eh, pH and oxygen concentration in sulphide mineral flotation.  相似文献

Adsorption of chromium and copper in aqueous solutions using tea residue   总被引:5,自引:3,他引:2  
In this study, adsorption of copper and chromium was investigated by residue of brewed tea (Tea Waste) from aqueous solutions at various values of pH. It was shown that adsorbent dose, copper and chromium ion concentrations in such solutions influence the degree of these heavy metal ions’ obviation. The adsorption level of the prepared solutions was measured by visible spectrophotometer. The tea residue adsorbed copper (II) and chromium (VI) ions at initial solution pH by 25 % and 3 %, respectively. During the experiments the peak adsorption occured in hydrated copper nitrate aqueous solution at pH range of 5–6. Likewise the maximum adsorption appeared in potassium chromate aqueous solution at pH range of 2–3. In addition, tea residue adsorbed about 60 mg/g of copper (II) ion at pH=5, while chromium adsorption was registered at about 19 mg/g at pH=2. The data obtained at the equilibrium state, was compared with Langmuir and Freundlich models. Results showed that regarding the kinetics of adsorption, the uptake of copper (II) and chromium (VI) ions by tea residue was comparatively faster, with the adsorption process exhaustion completed within the first 20 min of the experiments. Furthermore, results revealed that adsorption data concerning the kinetic phase is closely correlated with a pseudo-second order model with R2> 0.99 for copper (II) and chromium (VI) ions  相似文献

Particle hydrophobicity has been derived from Time of Flight Secondary Ion Mass Spectrometry (ToF-SIMS) measurements and its impact on the flotation behaviour of chalcopyrite investigated. Batch flotation tests were performed using a dithiophosphate-type of collector in different concentrations. Three flotation regimes were studied using particle size ranges of 20–38 μm, 75–105 μm and 150–210 μm. The individual particle contact angle, and hence, the distribution of contact angles of chalcopyrite within feed, concentrate and tail flotation samples has been determined using ToF-SIMS secondary ions. The effects of particle size and hydrophobicity on the flotation behaviour have been investigated using this new approach. The hydrodynamic effects of the particle size were highlighted by the different distributions of contact angles obtained for each concentrate size fraction, with fine and coarse sizes requiring higher average contact angles to float. This effect was overtaken by hydrophobicity when a high collector concentration was used. The broad distribution of contact angles observed in all samples, i.e. heterogeneity in hydrophobicity, has significant consequences for interpreting flotation behaviour. The methodology of analysis conducted in this study was applied to real ore and can be used as a quantitative, diagnostic tool for examining surface chemical factors affecting hydrophobicity. This new technique has promise and may advance the understanding of mechanisms, which may lead to better control strategies for improving flotation performance. Furthermore, any mineral–collector system can be targeted, provided appropriate calibration is performed.  相似文献

Heavy metal ions from single and ternary systems of Pb(II), Cu(II), and Ni(II) adsorbed by calix[4]resorcinarenes in water–chloroform extraction were studied. Comparison was made of calix[4]resorcinarenes, 2,8,14,20-tetraundecyl calix[4]resorcinarene-4,6,10,12,16,18,22,24-octol, and diethylaminomethyl-calix[4]resorcinarene, 5,11,17,23-tetra(diethylaminomethyl)-2,8,14,20- tetraundecylcalix[4]resorcinarene-4,6,10,12,16,18,22,24-octol, for predominant extraction of their ions from the ternary mixture of aqueous solution at different pH in a water layer. The hosting of Pb(II) by the diethylaminomethyl-calix[4]resorcinarene occurred efficiently at pH 6–7. The hosting of Pb(II), Cu(II), and Ni(II) ions for the ternary aqueous mixture was applied to the Langmuir isotherm. Adsorption was studied using nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy in a water–deuterium chloroform extraction system. Results showed that as the heavy metal ions were included into the host cavity, the observation of shifted peaks of water molecules from downfield to higher field was visible in the nuclear magnetic resonance spectra, meaning that water molecules were included with heavy metal ion into the host cavity. The spectra also showed that the diethylamino group expressed formation of the coordination complex between the diethylaminomethyl-calix[4]resorcinarene and Pb(II) for the purpose of predominant hosting of Pb(II).  相似文献

The effect of amine collector type, pH, and ionic strength on the flotation behaviour of kaolinite was investigated in a series of laboratory batch flotation tests. In distilled water, ether diamine, a strong collector for silica, does not induce any flotation or only very weak flotation of kaolinite over a wide pH range from pH 3 to pH 10.5. Ether monoamine causes strong flotation of kaolinite in distilled water, especially in acidic solutions, but high dosages of the collector are required. Such observations are in contrast to the flotation behaviour of oxide minerals such as silica for which ether diamine shows stronger collecting power than ether monoamine. The pH dependence of kaolinite flotation is also opposite to that of oxides, with lower flotation recovery obtained at higher pH. In contrast to oxides, the flotation recovery of kaolinite increases with ionic strength. It was demonstrated that the enhanced flotation of kaolinite in NaCl solutions cannot be attributed to the frothing ability of NaCl or the intercalation of kaolinite by alkylamines. It is proposed that the screened zeta potential of kaolinite particles in a high ionic strength environment causes random aggregation of kaolinite particles exposing hydrophobic (001) silica plane in the presence of ether amines.  相似文献

An experimental study was made to identify surfactants which are effective for removal of copper from dilute aqueous solution (100–500 ppm) by precipitate flotation as the sulfide, and which at the same time can be recovered from the CuS product for recycle. Batch flotation experiments confirmed that a cationic surfactant was necessary for flotation of CuS from such dilute suspensions; however, no satisfactory way could be found for recovering cationic surfactants from the CuS. This led to consideration of amphoteric surfactants, which are cationic at low pH and anionic at high pH. It was found that a change to negative, rather than simply neutral, charge was required for efficient surfactant recovery. It was further found, through the assistance of experiments in which the CuS suspension was agitated with solvents, that certain functional groups which interact chemically with the CuS surface should also be absent from the surfactant molecule. Following this logic, Amphoterge K-2 (Lonza Chemical Co.) was identified as a suitable surfactant, provided CuS was precipitated with S2? in excess. Tests established that 95% of adsorbed Amphoterge K-2 could be recovered by raising the pH to 11 and boiling the suspension for one hour, followed by decanting. Surfactant thus recovered was effective in a second flotation test. Foamate solids settled rapidly; such behavior would help reduce the consumption of chemicals for the pH change.Column flotation studies were made using Amphoterge K-2 for removal of Cu2+ present at 100 ppm and pH = 2. High removals of CuS could be obtained at concentrations of surfactant above about 25 ppm, for which conditions a substantial fraction of the surfactant remains in solution rather than being adsorbed onto the CuS. The recovery of CuS would be improved by introducing the surfactant in a separate feed, below the feed of CuS suspension. Adding some surfactant in the CuS feed, as well as in a lower feed, gave an even better recovery of CuS (99.8%) at sufficiently high surfactant loadings.  相似文献

A model is developed by taking into account the simultaneous mechanisms of true flotation and entrainment in a conventional flotation cell. The total volume of the cell is divided into three compartments: pulp collection zone, pulp quiescent zone and froth region, with the mechanisms being modeled as occurring at the same time but originating at different places: true flotation from the collection zone and entrainment from the quiescent one. A particle is referred to as suspended in water or attached to an air bubble, depending upon its original state before crossing the pulp–froth interface (whether or not it remains in that state all the way to the concentrate launder). The model is obtained by solving a set of equations describing the mass conservation of solids and water between adjacent compartments. The principal mass transfer factors are identified as: the flotation rate constant, the mean residence time in the collection zone, the froth recovery of attached particles, the degree of entrainment through the froth and the water recovery from the feed to the concentrate. The development presented here allows the intricate nature of the mass transfer in a flotation cell to be reduced to one single equation, overcoming the need of numerical methods for simulation purposes. Moreover, it is shown that reliable prediction of grade and recovery can be obtained without detailed information on the pulp hydrodynamics or on any froth sub-process either than drainage, bubble bursting and bubble coalescence.  相似文献

Alkyl xanthyl thiosulphates (R.OCSS.S2O3?) (RXT?) are formed in solution by mild oxidation (e.g. by I2) of solutions containing both xanthate and thiosulphate. They can also be formed by reaction of Cu2+ with xanthate and thiosulphate, reaction of dixanthogen with thiosulphate, and by reaction of xanthate with tetrathionate; these last three reactions can occur in flotation pulps in slightly acid or alkaline solutions (pH 5–10).Alkyl xanthyl thiosulphates are stable in acid and neutral solution; the solutions have a UV absorption maximum at 289 nm. In strongly alkaline solution (pH 12) RXT? decomposes within a few minutes to yield a xanthate (mostly) plus a little perxanthate. At pH 10 this decomposition to xanthate takes about 48 h. At pH 7–9 RXT? is relatively stable. RXT? is not extracted from aqueous solution with common solvents (chloroform, iso-octane, cyclohexane, or ether). It forms a water-insoluble adduct with cetyltrimethyl-ammonium bromide (CTAB); this adduct can be extracted into chloroform, and the extract has a UV absorption maximum at 296 nm.RXT? was found in solutions from the gangue-sulphide flotation section at Renison Ltd, the zinc flotation circuit and the copper flotation circuit at Mount Isa Mines Ltd, and the lead flotation section of The Zinc Corporation Ltd. The presence of RXT? in operating flotation plants has various practical and theoretical implications.  相似文献

The effect of sodium bisulphite on the xanthate-induced flotation of copper-activated sphalerite has been studied using batch flotation testing, surface analysis techniques (XPS and ToF-SIMS), and FTIR. The various techniques have been used to identify the mechanisms of interaction of sulphite ions with both collector and the sphalerite surface. The results indicate that sodium bisulphite depressed the flotation of sphalerite particles pre-treated with copper and xanthate at pH 9 with nitrogen and air purging. It was found that sodium bisulphite interacts with the sphalerite surface, as well as with xanthate in its adsorbed state. Based on the evidence obtained in the present study, and in conjunction with previous work, the mechanisms involved in the depression of the xanthate-induced flotation of copper-activated sphalerite by sulphite are proposed. It is suggested that copper xanthate decomposition on the surface of the activated sphalerite and the decomposition of the hydrophobic copper-sulphide-like species on the sphalerite surface are the active mechanisms for sphalerite depression by sodium bisulphite.  相似文献

The biosorption characteristics of Cd(II) and Cu(II) ions from aqueous solutions obtained using submerged aquatic plant (Myriophyllum spicatum) biomass were investigated in terms of equilibrium, kinetics, thermodynamics, and cation competition. Langmuir and Freundlich models were applied to describe the biosorption isotherm of metal ions by M. spicatum biomass and isotherm constants considering the most important parameter, pH. The variation of sorption isotherm constants showed pH dependence. The Langmuir and Freundlich models fitted the equilibrium data well. The maximum biosorption capacity (q m) of M. spicatum biomass was determined to be 29.07 mg/g for the Cd(II) ion at pH 5.0 and 12.12 mg/g for the Cu(II) ion at pH 6.0. Chi square analysis showed that the Freundlich model fitted the equilibrium data better than the Langmuir isotherm. Competition of Cd(II) and Cu(II) in a binary solution showed that the Langmuir monolayer capacity of Cd(II) decreased from 29.07 mg/g with only Cd(II) in solution to 12.02 mg/g in the presence of Cu(II). Kinetics results showed that the biosorption processes of both metal ions followed the pseudo-second-order kinetics well. The calculated thermodynamic parameters (?G 0, ?H 0, and ?S 0) showed that biosorption of Cd(II) and Cu(II) ions onto M. spicatum biomass was feasible, spontaneous, and endothermic in nature. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy spectrum analysis revealed that Cd(II) and Cu(II) sorption was mainly ascribed to carboxyl, hydroxyl, amine, and C–N groups in M. spicatum.  相似文献
