WhatsApp: +86 18203695377The flotation method most commonly applied is the one that is based on cationic flotation of silica and silicates (reverse flotation), and which is preceded by desliming. As the complexity of mineralogy grows, in terms of extremely fine mineral liberation and very complex intergrowths, a number of signifcant issues come into view.
WhatsApp: +86 18203695377Froth flotation has been widely used in upgrading iron ores. Iron ore flotation can be performed in two technical routes: direct flotation of iron oxides and reverse flotation of gangue minerals with depression of iron oxides. Nowadays, reverse flotation is the most commonly used route in iron ore flotation. This review is focused on the reverse flotation of iron ores, consisting of reverse ...
