Studying The Effect of Some Used Collectors in Iron Ore Concentration by Froth Flotation

Abstract

This study explained that the used collector type and the FlotationProcedure have apparent effect on concentration procedure, the results explainedthat the used of these collectors lead to occuring of reversed anionic silica flotationand on using the formic acid it has been noted that the Iron grade increases whenthe collector weight reaches to 64% It adding 0.5 gm of the acid. and when aceticacid was used there is an increasing in Iron grade with increasing of acetic percentwhich reaches to 76% inadding 0.3 gm of the acid but on the pH=11 with(0.3) gmof the same acid (acetic acid) the Iron grade increases to 89% and in using streaicacid it has been noted that the Iron grade that goted becomes constant which isabout 65% so from these results it had been noted that the acetic acid gives the bestresults where it had reached to 89% of Iron grade on adding 0.3 gm of this acid onpH=11
