How is the flotation process of mining machinery carried out? Flotation process and gravity separation process are both technological processes used for mineral extraction. Flotation process mainly uses flotation machine equipment, which is a beneficiation method for separating minerals according to the different physical and chemical properties of mineral surface.
How is the flotation process of mining machinery carried out?
Flotation machine is an important equipment to realize flotation process. Flotation is the same as other beneficiation methods. Material preparation before beneficiation should be done well, that is, the ore should be grinded and classified to reach the concentration and fineness suitable for flotation. In addition, flotation has the following basic operations:

The flotation machine
1. Adjustment of pulp and addition of flotation reagent (flotation process):
Its purpose is to cause the difference of mineral surface properties, that is, to change the wettability of mineral surface and adjust the selectivity of mineral surface, so that some mineral particles can adhere to gas saturation, while others cannot adhere to bubbles.
2. Stir and cause a large number of bubbles (flotation process):
With the help of the aeration and agitation of the flotation machine, the air in the pulp is dispersed and a large number of bubbles are formed, or the air dissolved in the pulp is slightly saturated and precipitated.
3. Mineralization of bubbles (flotation process):
The selective attachment of ore particles to bubbles is the most basic behavior in the flotation process.
4. Formation and scraping out of mineralized foam layer (flotation process):
The mineralized bubbles rise from the lower part of the flotation cell to the pulp surface to form a mineralized foam layer. The useful minerals are enriched into the foam and scraped out to become concentrate (middling) products.
How is the flotation process of mining machinery carried out? Today, Jiangxi Hengchang mining machinery manufacturer shared this with you. It is worth noting that in the modern flotation process, the application of flotation reagents is particularly important, because after being treated with flotation reagents, the floatability of minerals can be changed, so that minerals to be floated can selectively adhere to bubbles, so as to achieve the purpose of beneficiation.
