Mixing coarse coal particles with fine coal, diluting process water, and reducing collector or frother dosage all significantly decreased the froth stability. However, only the reduction of reagent usage was recommended as a sound strategy since it did not negatively impact the coal flotation performance while eliminating the overstable froth ......

DEASHING AND DESULPHURIZATION OF FINE OXIDIZED .

grinding on the flotation improvement of oxidized coal, flotation of oxidized coal that was ground for 20 minutes was tested. XFD63 flotation machine with a dm3 XFG flotation cell was employed for the regressive release flotation tests. Positive twelve alkane and methyl isobutyl carbinol were used as collector and frother respectively....

The Slime Problem in Australian Coal Flotation AusIMM

Coal, after treatment with these electrolytes and then deslimed, floats readily with a common frother, such as MIBC. Modifications in the conventional flotation circuits have been suggested to ensure an efficient flotation of fine coal....

WaterCarrying Properties of Flotation Frothers and Its ...

The watercarrying property of three flotation frothers (1Pentanol, Methyl isobutyl carbinol (MIBC), and 2Octanol) was investigated by watercarrying rate. In this work, the performance of frothers in a threephase coal flotation was evaluated and related to the watercarrying property in a twophase system. The frother having a high watercarrying rate, 2Octanol, shows overall faster ......

EVALUATION OF FROTHER PERFORMANCE IN COAL FLOTATION.

Separation efficiency in flotation depends, to a considerable extent, on the efficiency of the frother used. A successful frother must achieve a delicate balance between froth stability and nonpersistency. Ideally, the frother is not supposed to influence the state of the surface of the coal and minerals. In practice, however, interaction does occur between the frother, other reagents, and ......
