Flotation collectors used in the recovery of bastnaesite are similar with those used in that of its associated gangue minerals such as fluorite and calcite, which is due to the similar reactivities of rare earth ions in the bastnaesite surface with Ca 2+ ions in the surfaces of fluorite and calcite [8]. It is necessary to develop novel ...

The floatability of fluorite and calcite as a function of NaOl dosage at pH 8.0 is shown in Fig. 4.As seen in Fig. 4, flotation recoveries of fluorite and calcite significantly increased with increasing dosage of NaOl and remained constant at high collector concentration.The flotation recovery of both fluorite and calcite was over 90 % using …
As a common depressant, acidified water glass (AWG) has strong inhibitory effects on fluorite and calcite. The inhibited fluorite is difficult to be recovered, thus resulting in the waste of resources and low flotation efficiency.

Oleic acid is a widely utilized collector in fluorite flotation. A novel hydroxamic acid collector, N,9,10-trihydroxyoctadecanamide (THODA), has been developed based on the molecular structure of oleic acid. Compared to oleic acid, THODA exhibits a superior selectivity in the flotation separation of fluorite and calcite.
Froth flotation technology has been around for about 150 years. The first true flotation process was described by the Bessel brothers in a patent from 1877 [].Although the brothers Adolph and August co-owned a factory in Dresden, it appears that Adolph (28 September 1835, Wunstorf—12 July 1886, Dresden) was actually the inventor of the process.
