reverse flotation of silica

The silica gangue of the fine sized fraction (−200 #) should be removed by reverse flotation with cationic collectors. The effect of pH on reverse flotation is shown in Fig. 2 . As the pH increases from 4.8 to 12.0, the P 2 O 5 grade of the concentrate first decreases and then increases.

Conclusion. In this study, the "reverse-direct flotation" method effectively promotes the quality and whiteness of the waste high-silica phosphogypsum. After closed-circuit flotation, for the PG concentrate, the whiteness reaches 63.42, the purity of CaSO 4 ·2H 2 O reaches 96.70%, and the content of SiO 2 is reduced from 11.11% to 0.07%.

Clariant's reverse flotation featuring Flotigam 2835-2 removes the silica that cannot be removed by magnetic separation. In this process, the ore slurry navigates through a series of large flotation cells, where air is introduced to create the bubbles for float separation. Flotigam 2835-2 collects and floats the silica.
