Separation of galena and pyrite via green organic macromolecules at low alkalinity: Flotation response and surface adsorption mechanisms

Pyrite must be separated from galena during the beneficiation stage because it releases toxic gases during pyrometallurgy. However, the separation of the two minerals presents a huge obstacle as they have comparable hydrophobicity. This work offers an environmentally friendly pyrite depressant, pullulan polysaccharide (PP), for concentrating galena. Single mineral flotation showed that the ability of PP to deteriorate floatability was significantly stronger for pyrite than for galena within the pH range of 6.00 − 12.00. PP preadsorption assisted in separating galena from pyrite in a low-alkalinity pulp. The recovery of galena was 71.20 % higher than that of pyrite in the binary mineral flotation system. Characterization results confirmed that the Fe sites of pyrite were more susceptible to forming a stable coordination with the O atoms of PP’s C−O−H group compared to the Pb sites of galena. PP can impede the sodium butyl xanthate (BX) sorption on the pyrite surface, thus effectively depressing the pyrite. By contrast, the sorption of BX onto the galena surface was unaffected by PP, and the galena remained floatable. Thus, PP could be considered as an alternative to conventional inorganic depressants in the galena–pyrite flotation system. This work provides a scientific reference for the green and sustainable exploitation of non-ferrous metal resources.

Ethylenediamine tetramethylenephosphonic acid as a selective collector for the improved separation of chalcopyrite against pyrite at low alkalinity

Chalcopyrite is the main Cu-containing mineral and cannot be separated well from pyrite using traditional xanthate collectors with large amounts of lime depressant, resulting in difficulties of the tailing treatment and associated precious metals recovery. Therefore, in this study, the green and odourless ethylenediamine tetramethylenephosphonic acid (EDTMPA) was introduced as a novel chalcopyrite collector. Flotation results from the binary mineral mixture and real ore demonstrated that EDTMPA could realize the selective separation of chalcopyrite from pyrite relative to ethyl xanthate (EX) without any depressants within the wide pH range of 6.0–11.0, and might replace the traditional high-alkaline lime process. Electrochemical and Fourier transform infrared spectra measurements indicated that the difference in adsorption performance of EDTMPA on chalcopyrite and pyrite was larger than that of EX, suggesting a better selectivity for EDTMPA. Density functional theory calculations demonstrated that there were stronger chemical bonds between P—O groups of EDTMPA and the Fe/Cu atoms on chalcopyrite in the form of a stable six-membered ring. Crystal chemistry calculations further revealed that the activity of metal atoms of chalcopyrite was higher than that of pyrite. Therefore, these basic theoretical results and practical application provide a guidance for the industrial application of EDTMPA in chalcopyrite flotation.

Effects of combining binary mineral admixtures and manufactured basalt sand on the microscopic properties of mortar

In recent years, environmental pollution and resource shortages have increased demand for high-performance green concrete. This study investigated the use of manufactured basalt sand as fine aggregate and mineral admixtures as a partial replacement for cement with a focus on the basic mechanical properties of concrete as well as water absorption, porosity, and resistivity. The use of manufactured basalt sand as fine aggregate was shown to enhance the mechanical properties. The inclusion of mineral admixture equivalent to 30% of the total cementitious material (15% fly ash and 15% ground granulated blast furnace slag) resulted in the best mechanical properties with few pores and low water absorption consistent with rich hydration products.

Pore-scale investigation on mineral dissolution and evolution in hydrological properties of complex porous media with binary minerals

A pore-scale numerical model for reactive transport process based on lattice Boltzmann method is adopted to simulate the mineral dissolution in complex porous media with binary minerals. The effect of binary mineral, solute concentration and dissolution rate on hydrological properties evolution of complex porous media is investigated. Simulation results show that binary minerals could inhibit the mineral dissolution and further alter the temporal evolution trend of related hydrological properties compared to monomineralic porous media. Changes in pore structure of complex porous media could be divided into three stages: slow increase, significant increase and slightly-stable increase stage in succession. A simple model is barely suitable for characterizing the porosity-permeability evolution of the complex porous media. Temporal evolution in reactive specific surface during mineral dissolution could be characterized by the fractal model. Although solute concentration could change the mineral dissolution process, it has no effect on the evolution relationship of hydrological properties between permeability, reactive specific surface and porosity. Mineral dissolution rate would alter the above-mentioned relationships by changing the reactive transport regime.

Analysis of force–deformation and force–time profiles of 3D-printed specimens of single and binary mineral composition tested with Short Impact Load Cell

In mineral processing, accurate characterisation of the mechanical properties of particles of various mineral composite, texture and scale is critical for the development of improved breakage modelling. Additionally, these models should emphasise the primary breakage properties of the particles on the models rather than breakage in test devices that introduce substantial secondary fragmentation events. This work explores the use of the Short Impact Load Cell (SILC) test to investigate the mechanical properties of fabricated 3D-printed (3DP) specimens of single and binary mineral composition, i.e., iron oxide, silica, and layered specimens with both minerals. The fabricated quasi-identical specimens are useful to explore the repeatability and contrast of controlled additively manufactured 3DP specimens and the SILC testing performance. The fracture characteristics of printed quasi-identical specimens were observed using an ultra-high-speed digital camera. The study showed that the specimen properties, such as tensile strength and fracture energy are strongly influenced by the number of beds, bed thickness, and mineral composition. The force–deformation as well as force–time profiles and specimen fragmentation are studied to understand better the variability of the results and the specimen’s physical response to a single impact. The contour of force–time profiles allows for interpretations of how the striker contacts the specimen and to infer the crack initiation and fracture propagation through beds of brittle or ductile material. The use of hierarchical clusters facilitates the analysis as they enhance contrasts and give more insight into breakage and fragmentation, which is worthwhile investigating for natural rocks in the future.

Application of a new amidoxime surfactant in flotation separation of scheelite and calcite: Adsorption mechanism and DFT calculation

With its high electrical conductivity, thermal creep resistance and compression modulus, tungsten take an irreplaceable position in modern industry, defense, and high technology. Scheelite, as the main raw material of tungsten resources, usually adopts Petrov’ process: steam heating 80 °C-90 °C, stirring in a tank containing 2%-4% sodium silicate solution for more than half an hour to make sodium oleate desorbed on the calcite surface, and repeated cleaning. Herein, a new amidoxime surfactant 3-dodecylamine propyl amidoxime (DPA), had been synthesized and used as a collector for the first time in the flotation separation of scheelite and calcite at room temperature without any sodium silicate, and compared with the traditional collector sodium oleate (NaOL). The flotation behavior of DPA was studied by micro-flotation and mixed binary mineral flotation tests, which showed that DPA has good collection ability and excellent selectivity for scheelite. Meanwhile, the interaction mechanism of DPA on the mineral surface was discussed by FTIR analysis, zeta potential test, contact angle measurement and density functional theory (DFT). FTIR analysis and zeta potential test confirmed that DPA collector had adsorption on scheelite surface but had little effect on calcite. DFT calculation further confirmed that the positively charged –C(NOH)N+H3 group in DPA had electrostatic adsorption on the negatively charged scheelite surface. The contact angle measurement results revealed that DPA can enhance the surface hydrophobicity of the scheelite particles. Therefore, this highly selective DPA surfactant can achieve effective separation of scheelite and calcite, contributing to environmental protection and sustainable green development of resources.

Adsorption of Trisiloxane Surfactant for Selective Flotation of Scheelite from Calcite at Room Temperature.

The separation and enrichment of scheelite from calcite are hindered by the similar active Ca2+ sites of scheelite and the calcite with calciferous gangue. Herein, a novel trisiloxane surfactant, N-(2-aminoethyl)-3-aminopropyltrisiloxane (AATS), was first explored and synthesized and recommended as the collector for the flotation separation of scheelite from calcite. The micro-flotation and mixed binary mineral flotation tests showed that AATS had excellent collection performance for scheelite and high selectivity for calcite within a wide pH range. At the same time, contact angle and zeta-potential measurements, Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) analysis, and density functional theory (DFT) calculations revealed the relevant adsorption mechanism. The contact angle measurement showed that AATS can increase the contact angle of the scheelite surface from 41.7 to 95.8°, greatly enhancing the hydrophobicity of the mineral surface. The results of FTIR analysis and zeta-potential measurement explained that AATS was electrostatically adsorbed on the mineral surface, and DFT calculation further verified that the -N+H3-positive group in AATS was adsorbed on the negatively charged scheelite surface. Therefore, AATS can realize the expectation of high efficiency and selectivity of minerals and enhance the adhesion between the surface of scheelite minerals and bubbles, providing a fresh approach to industrial production.

The effect of crosslinking additives and molecular weight of starch depressants on pyrrhotite and pentlandite floatabilities

• Synthesized starches (paste starches and crosslinked starch) can depress hexagonal pyrrhotite and pentlandite at pH 9.2. • Paste starch with higher molecular weight and crosslinked starch showed a certain selectivity in a binary mineral system. • The presence of metal hydroxylate species on both minerals allowed their chemical interaction with starch groups according to surface analysis. • Crosslinking additives within starch structure promoted a mixed interaction with mineral surfaces via chemisorption and electrostatic attraction. Pentlandite is very important to the mining industry since it is the main source of metallic nickel. However, its separation from hexagonal pyrrhotite by froth flotation is challenging due to their similar floatabilities, and inefficiencies in this process generate environmental issues caused by emissions of sulfur oxide gases during the pyrometallurgy of nickel concentrates. Although successful, the current pyrrhotite depressant (diethylenetriamine - DETA) is also harmful to the environment which compels the research and development of non-toxic and biodegradable reagents such as polysaccharides. Therefore, three starch depressants for hexagonal pyrrhotite were used in this study. They include a paste starch with higher molecular weight (MW), a paste starch with lower molecular weight, and a crosslinked starch formed by mixing the lower MW paste starch and copper ions. We hypothesize that the presence of crosslinking additives such as copper provide a “driving” effect towards the gangue mineral. The performance of depressants was investigated in single and binary mineral systems. For single minerals, all depressants impacted hexagonal pyrrhotite and pentlandite flotation recovery. For the binary mineral systems, the higher MW paste starch and crosslinked starch showed an improved Ni separation efficiency of 90.5% and 85.6%, respectively, at an intermediate PIBX dosage (9.66x10 −6 M) compared to the lower MW paste starch (58.6%), demonstrating a certain selectivity. The choice of the most suitable starch depressant proved to be complex since both minerals were able to chemically interact with the starch depressants as verified via X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). Hydroxyl groups present on the α-D-glucose units bound with surface metal (Fe and/or Ni) hydroxylate species while the crosslinked starch also interacts with the mineral surfaces by electrostatic attraction. These findings will contribute to the advancement of knowledge related to the use of polysaccharides as depressants for complex sulfide mineral systems.

Monitoring of Lithium Contents in Lithium Ores and Concentrate-Assessment Using X-ray Diffraction (XRD)

Lithium plays an increasing role in battery applications, but is also used in ceramics and other chemical applications. Therefore, a higher demand can be expected for the coming years. Lithium occurs in nature mainly in different mineralizations but also in large salt lakes in dry areas. As lithium cannot normally be analyzed using XRF-techniques (XRF = X-ray Fluorescence), the element must be analyzed by time consuming wet chemical treatment techniques. This paper concentrates on XRD techniques for the quantitative analysis of lithium minerals and the resulting recalculation using additional statistical methods of the lithium contents. Many lithium containing ores and concentrates are rather simple in mineralogical composition and are often based on binary mineral assemblages. Using these compositions in binary and ternary mixtures of lithium minerals, such as spodumene, amblygonite, lepidolite, zinnwaldite, petalite and triphylite, a quantification of mineral content can be made. The recalculation of lithium content from quantitative mineralogical analysis leads to a fast and reliable lithium determination in the ores and concentrates. The techniques used for the characterization were quantitative mineralogy by the Rietveld method for determining the quantitative mineral compositions and statistical calculations using additional methods such as partial least square regression (PLSR) and cluster analysis methods to predict additional parameters, like quality, of the samples. The statistical calculations and calibration techniques makes it especially possible to quantify reliable and fast. Samples and concentrates from different lithium deposits and occurrences around the world were used for these investigations. Using the proposed XRD method, detection limits of less than 1% of mineral and, therefore down to 0.1% lithium oxide, can be reached. Case studies from a hard rock lithium deposit will demonstrate the value of mineralogical monitoring during mining and the different processing steps. Additional, more complex considerations for the analysis of lithium samples from salt lake brines are included and will be discussed.

The article provides an assessment of the existing most successful and effec-tive technologies for creating asphalt concrete pave-ments with high technical performance characteris-tics, and the key role in formula is an asphalt binder on the binary system mineral powder/oil road bitu-men basement, their main advantages and disad-vantages are described. A new technological method for the asphalt concrete mixtures production is de-scribed - pelletization by rolling, which was proposed by the authors. The paper presents the study's results to determine the structured asphalt binder technical and operational properties obtained by the method of pelletization by rolling. A brief theoretical substantia-tion of the physicochemical nature of improving a number of developed composition technical and op-erational characteristics of a structured asphalt binder is presented. The dynamics of over time changes in the main structured asphalt binder indicators, from 2005 to 2019, are given. It has been theoretically proven that in a structured asphalt binder obtained by the method of pelletization by rolling, bitumen is in a film state, and the bitumen interlayers thickness be-tween the mineral powder particles is of the order of 100 nm, which makes it possible to classify the prod-uct as a nanomaterial and determines its special properties set. The data of independent and our own experimental studies are also presented, indicating the previously obtained theoretical justification correct-ness for increasing the strength indicators, improving the water saturation indicators, and the water re-sistance coefficient. The absence of negative changes in the main technical and operational properties dy-namics for 14 years confirms the possibility of storing the mixture in a cold form outside a sealed package in an unheated room, which makes it possible to assert the possibility of preparing material for future use and transporting it over unlimited distances

Delving into the heterocoagulation between coal and quartz at different shear rates by the focused beam reflectance measurement (FBRM) and particle vision and measurement (PVM) techniques

In the present work, two experimental systems based on in-situ focused beam reflectance measurement (FBRM) and particle vision and measurement (PVM) were developed to quantitatively investigate the heterocoagulation that occurs in a binary mineral mixture consisting of coal and quartz at different shear rates. The former was used to determine the heterocoagulation degree between quartz and coal particles, while the latter was employed to obtain visual information of coagulation behavior of quartz particles on a coal flat surface. The results of the FBRM system obtained at suspension pH varying from 3 to 9 showed that the heterocoagulation degree between quartz and coal particles increased over time. These results also showed that the heterocoagulation degree gradually decreased as the shear rate increased from 30 s−1 to 68 s−1 regardless of pH change. The results of the PVM system showed that the effect of agitation time on heterocoagulation between quartz particles and a coal flat surface was similar to that obtained between quartz and coal particles. However, the heterocoagulation between quartz particles and a coal surface was less severe than that between quartz and coal particles and was more sensitive to the change of shear rate.

Influences of Simulated Organic Residues in Petroleum-Exploiting Areas on the Dissolution and Speciation of Arsenic in Soil-Mineral Solid

ABSTRACT Enhanced subsurface reductive potentials and anaerobic conditions induced by organic residues at oilfield sites may affect arsenic (As) levels in groundwater (GW) and GW-irrigated crops. To substantiate this effect, a Fe/Mn-As binary mineral oxide (FMBO-As) was synthesized by co-precipitation and a series of soil columns packed with varying FMBO-As levels were eluted with simulated oily wastewater to evaluate total As levels and As speciation. According to results from FTIR, XPS, SEM, and EDS analyses, As in synthesized FMBO-As particles exist in certain Fe-O-As bonding states. Both total As and arsenite (As(III)) fraction in soil-column leached solutions increased significantly with increasing FMBO-As packed in soil columns when leached by the simulated oily sewage water. Meanwhile, the total As and As(III) levels in leachate were well correlated with the leaching time, the chemical oxygen demand (COD), and the abundance of sulfate-reducing bacteria in simulated oily wastewater. Especially when the COD value was 51040 mg/L, the increase percentage of total As in the leachate has reached to 64.2%-186.6% at a leaching time of 2 to 18 days. These findings support the view that wastewaters from petroleum exploiting sites enhance the release of soil-and/or mineral-bound As and the distribution of As(III) versus As(Ⅴ) in nearby GW to ultimately impact the local ecological quality and human health.

Binary mineral sulfides sorbent with wide temperature range for rapid elemental mercury uptake from coal combustion flue gas

ABSTRACT Developing efficient sorbents with rapid kinetics is the main challenge encountered for Hg0 capture from coal combustion flue gas in a sorbent injection scenario. Binary mineral sulfide-based materials combining copper sulfide (CuS) and zinc sulfide (ZnS) to exert their capabilities for Hg0 capture at the low- and high-temperature was for the first time reported for Hg0 removal to realize a wide temperature range sorbents. When the molar ratio between CuS and ZnS was 10%, the as-synthesized 10Cu-Zn nanocomposite exhibited excellent Hg0 uptake rate at 150°C that could degrade 40 μg/m3 of Hg0 to undetectable level at the end of a 60-s experiment with the dosage of only 1 mg. This Hg0 uptake rate is folds higher compared to that when bare CuS or ZnS was adopted alone at this specific temperature. The typical flue gas atmospheres had negligible effect on Hg0 removal over 10Cu-Zn in a short contact time, which further suggests that the binary sorbents were proper to be injected before the electrostatic precipitator system. Moreover, it is found that, by adjusting the ratio between CuS and ZnS, it is potential to develop binary sorbent suiting any temperature conditions that may achieve an exceedingly high Hg0 capture performance. Thus, this work not only justified the candidature of 10Cu-Zn as a promising alternative to traditional activated carbon for Hg0 capture from coal combustion flue gas but also guided the future development of multi-component mineral sulfide-based sorbents for Hg0 pollution remediation from various industrial flue gases.

Adsorption of benzene vapor on natural silicate clay minerals under different moisture contents and binary mineral mixtures

Benzene, as the representative compound in volatile organic chemicals (VOCs), widely exists in contaminated sites. Adsorption performance of clay minerals can retard the transport of VOCs gas phase to some extent. Static adsorption experiments were conducted to investigate the adsorption capacity of benzene vapor on natural silicate clay minerals (smectite, illite, chlorite and kaolinite) under different temperatures, moisture contents and mineral mixtures. The results of adsorption isotherms for oven-dried clay minerals implied that the distinct adsorption capacity for benzene was mainly attributed to the specific surface areas and pore volume of clay minerals. The amount of adsorption benzene reduced to the minimum, and then gradually increased as the moisture content raised. The existences of water molecule competed the adsorption sites with benzene on the surface of clay minerals at the low moisture content, whereas the dissolutions of benzene molecule in the adsorbed water and the gravitational water could facilitate the adsorption process of clay minerals its adsorption with a saturated water content. Except for the mixture of smectite-kaolinite samples which showed obstruction of pores and declined the adsorption amount of benzene vapor, the experimentally observed adsorption values of benzene on binary mineral mixtures were equal to the theoretically linear sum of the contributions of each individual minerals.

Adsorption and depression mechanism of an environmentally friendly reagent in differential flotation of Cu–Fe sulphides

Utilization of large doses of inorganic reagents in mineral industry not only leads to high cost but also increases the toxicity in the environment. This research provides a new, environmentally friendly, biodegradable, and cost-effective depressant reagent, namely tricarboxylate sodium starch (TCSS), in chalcopyrite and pyrrhotite flotation systems. The selective depression and adsorption mechanism of TCSS on the two minerals were studied through the laboratory based measurements such as microflotation experiments, XPS spectral analysis, IR spectral analysis, adsorption amount analysis and zeta potential measurements. The addition of TCSS exhibited a much better depressive performance towards pyrrhotite than chalcopyrite in a wide pH range. Binary mineral flotation experiments indicated that an effective separation between the two minerals could be possible at a low concentration of TCSS, at which an improved recovery and grade of chalcopyrite of more than 75% could be achieved. All of the analytical measurements justified the flotation results and revealed that TCSS behaved differently with the two minerals. TCSS showed significantly much greater affinity towards pyrrhotite, the reason of which may be the presence of large amount of metal hydroxyl species on its surface.

Selective flotation of chalcopyrite from pyrite using diphosphonic acid as collector

Ethyl xanthate (EX) is a widely used collector in the flotation of sulfide minerals. However, it also has the disadvantages of low selectivity and harm to human health. Screening and/or designing more selective and green collectors is a ‘hot topic’ in mineral processing field. In this work, 1-Hydroxyethylidene-1, 1-diphosphonic acid (HEDP), a cheap green reagent widely used in water treatment, was for the first time, applied in the flotation separation of chalcopyrite from pyrite. In addition, a comparative test of the traditional EX collector was also carried out. Flotation results of single mineral and binary mineral mixture showed that HEDP possessed a better selectivity for the separation of chalcopyrite from pyrite than EX. Zeta potential measurement results indicated that HEDP exhibited a stronger adsorption on chalcopyrite and a weaker interaction with pyrite. Hence, HEDP is a promising collector that possesses the potential to replace EX in future chalcopyrite flotation practice.

Investigation on flotation separation of chalcopyrite from arsenopyrite with a novel collector: N-Butoxycarbonyl-O-Isobutyl Thiocarbamate

The efficient separation of chalcopyrite from arsenic-bearing minerals, especially arsenopyrite, remains a challenge in practice. In this work, a novel reagent of N-Butoxycarbonyl-O-Isobutyl Thiocarbamate (NBOIT) was employed in both single and mixed binary mineral flotation, and it proved to be highly effective for the flotation separation. Furthermore, the role of the pH and NBOIT concentration was evaluated. Additionally, the mechanism of the selective separation was investigated systemically via zeta potential measurements, Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) analysis and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) analysis. It turns out that the selective chemisorption of NBOIT on chalcopyrite (in the form of Cu-NBOIT complex) over arsenopyrite is ascribed to its the stronger reactivity and the high density of Cu ions on the chalcopyrite surfaces. The XPS analysis results also confirmed the generation of a Cu-NBOIT complex on the surface of chalcopyrite.

Effects of micro-nano bubble water and binary mineral admixtures on the mechanical and durability properties of concrete

This paper presents an experimental research on effects of micro-nano bubble water and mineral admixtures (zeolite and Chekneh pozzolans) on the mechanical and durability properties of concrete. In this study, 18 types of mixtures including 3 categories of conventional concrete were prepared. The first category was a mixture containing just one type of mineral admixture (zeolite or Chekneh) at different percentages; the second category contained a binary combination of zeolite and Chekneh; and the third category including a combination of zeolite, Chekneh, and micro-nano water bubble. The results emphasized that zeolite and Chekneh pozzolan notably improve the durability properties of concrete, such as water absorption, electrical resistance, and chloride permeability, leading to the increased pozzolanic replacement. In addition, using micro-nano bubble water improved mechanical properties of concrete such as compressive and tensile strength at different ages and reduced the rate of water absorption and chloride permeability. In this regard, the greatest improvement in the compressive, tensile strength, and electrical resistance tests were for the mixture including a combination of 10% zeolite, 10% Chekneh pozzolan, and 100% micro-nano bubble.
