Regardless of whether the process involves "inhibiting chalcopyrite during galena flotation" or "inhibiting galena during chalcopyrite flotation", the effective inhibition of galena or chalcopyrite by organic depressants and novel agents is predominantly attributed to the chemical or physical adsorption of their functional groups onto ...
Chalcopyrite and the filling materials used in the experiments were obtained from Yunnan Province and Anhui Province, China. After a series of crushing (jaw crusher), dry grinding (ceramic ball mill), and screening (standard sieve) steps, minerals with particle sizes of 0.038–0.074 mm were used for flotation experiments.
froth flotation is the primary method employed for the comprehensive recovery of chalcopyrite. Froth flotation is a physicochemical technique that exploits varying surface hydrophobic properties among different minerals (Huang et al., 2014; Liu et al., 2000). However, galena is also a sulfide ore and exhibits

In modern flotation process, the separation of chalcopyrite and galena is a difficult problem, which is difficult, incomplete and contains each other seriously. The main contributing factors are as follows: (1) Chalcopyrite and galena commonly occur symbiotically in sulfide ores, exhibiting a complex ore structure.
The flotation experiments show that PBAHX has a superior recovery ratio for chalcopyrite (91.89%), but a poor flotation performance on pyrite (34.62%) at a collector concentration of 2 × 10 −4 mol/L and pH 9.0. Further, E-nose detection demonstrates that PBAHX has a lower odor intensity than SIBX, which is attributed to the chaotic ...

Pyrite flotation depressants can be divided into inorganic and organic ones. ... the search of a cheap and selective collector is crucial for chalcopyrite flotation. 1-Hydroxyethylidene-1, 1-diphosphonic acid (HEDP) is an organic phosphonic acid.
The flotation separation of galena (PbS) and chalcopyrite (CuFeS 2) is not yet fully resolved due to the lack of efficient depressants.This study proposed a new depressant, i.e. an Fe 2+ /NaClO system, as an efficient PbS depressant. The inhibition effect of the Fe 2+ /NaClO system is attributed to the oxidation effect of •OH radicals from the reaction between HClO and Fe 2+.
