    Clay minerals have been modified by polymers for different applications. .e polymer addition affects not only the surface properties but also the rheological properties and the stability of the clay-polymer suspension as a whole. In the current study, the electro-chemical properties of bentonite particles in presence of poly diallyl dimethyl ammonium chloride (PDDACl) were investigated. .ese properties were characterized by as zeta potential, adsorption isotherm, Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) and the apparent viscosity at different solid percent. .e results indicated that the viscosity of the bentonite-PDDACl suspension not only increases by raising the polymer concentration but also by increasing solids %. Adsorption of PDDACl polymer increases the positivity of bentonite surface as a function of polymer concentration, which could be explained mainly by electrostatic interaction of deficient metal ions at the octahedral sheets of bentonite with the cationic head group of the polymer. .e PDDACl adsorption isotherm on bentonite fits more probably Langmuir than Freundlich isotherm.Minera艂y ilaste zosta艂y zmodyfikowane przez dodatek polimer贸w do ro偶nych zastosowa艅. Dodatek polimeru wp艂ywa nie tylko na w艂a艣ciwo艣ci powierzchni, ale r贸wnie偶 na w艂a艣ciwo艣ci reologiczne i stabilno艣膰 zawiesiny glina-polimer jako ca艂o艣ci. W niniejszej pracy zbadano w艂a艣ciwo艣ci elektrochemiczne cz膮stek bentonitu w obecno艣ci chlorku polidiallilodimetyloamoniowego (PDDACl). W艂a艣ciwo艣ci te scharakteryzowano jako potencja艂 zeta, izoterm臋 adsorpcji, podczerwie艅 z transformacj膮 Fouriera (FTIR) oraz lepko艣膰 pozorn膮 przy ro偶nych zawarto艣ciach fazy sta艂ej. Wyniki wskaza艂y, 偶e lepko艣膰 zawiesiny bentonit-PDDACl wzrasta nie tylko wraz ze wzrostem st臋偶enia polimeru, ale tak偶e ze wzrostem udzia艂u fazy sta艂ej. Adsorpcja polimeru PDDACl zwi臋ksza dodatnio艣膰 powierzchni bentonitu w funkcji st臋偶enia polimeru, co mo偶na t艂umaczy膰 g艂ownie oddzia艂ywaniem elektrostatycznym deficytowych jon贸w metali na oktaedrycznych arkuszach bentonitu z kationow膮 grup膮 polimeru. Izoterma adsorpcji PDDACl na bentonicie pasuje bardziej do izotermy Langmuira ni偶 izotermy Freundlicha

    Gravity separation using jigs is widely used for coarse particle sizes separation. However, fine sizes reduce jig performance. In this study, the upgrading of celestite ore by jig was investigated at different size fractions in the presence of ragging material. Three size fractions, i.e., -15+2 mm, - 2.0 + 0.50 mm and - 0.50 + 0.08 mm were used. The steel balls were used, as ragging material, to improve the separation of fines as well as to improve the concentrate quality. The statistical design was used to correlate celestite grade and recovery with studied operating variables, i.e., the ragging number of layers, ragging balls diameter, and separation time, at a fixed water flow rate and stroke length. The design results indicated that the ragging balls diameter and their number of layers play an important role. The smaller the ragging balls diameter and the higher the ragging number of layers are the better the concentrate grade but the longer the separation time. A celestite concentrate of (> 95% SrSO4) with 74.5% recovery was obtained for - 2.0 + 0.50 mm size fraction at the optimum conditions; i.e., 3.1 mm ragging balls diameter, one ragging layers, and 15 minutes separation time

    Coal flotation using inorganic salts receives special attention. It utilizes coal hydrophobicity to float coal without adding collectors. Although different salts were tested, chloride salts are the most promising ones. However, the stabilization of froth layer using the salts only is dubious. erefore, in this study, the flotation of coal was tested using either magnesium chloride or pine oil as a frother to see if there is a difference in coal flotation between these reagents in terms of ash removal and coal recovery in the float fraction. Additionally, both magnesium salt and pine oil were added together to clarify their interactive effect using statistical design. e results proved that the presence of either reagent (i.e., pine oil or MgCl.) is significant in reducing the ash content and increasing coal recovery. Using the MgCl. only reduced the ash to less than 4.3% with a coal recovery up to 28% while adding 1.0 kg/t pine oil along with 4 kg/t MgCl. enhanced the reduction of ash to less than 3% with a coal recovery of up to 80% at pH 2.Szczeg贸ln膮 uwag臋 po艣wi臋ca si臋 flotacji w臋gla przy u偶yciu soli nieorganicznych. Wykorzystuje hydrofobowo艣膰 w臋gla do flotacji w臋gla bez dodawania kolektor贸w. Chocia偶 testowano ro偶ne sole, najbardziej obiecuj膮ce s膮 sole chlorkowe. Jednak stabilizacja warstwy piany wy艂膮cznie za pomoc膮 soli jest w膮tpliwa. Dlatego w tym badaniu flotacja w臋gla by艂a testowana przy u偶yciu chlorku magnezu lub oleju sosnowego jako spieniacza, aby sprawdzi膰, czy istnieje r贸偶nica we flotacji w臋gla mi臋dzy tymi odczynnikami pod wzgl臋dem usuwania popio艂u i odzysku w臋gla we frakcji flotacyjnej. Dodatkowo dodano razem zar贸wno sol magnezow膮, jak i olejek sosnowy, aby wyja艣ni膰 ich interaktywny efekt przy u偶yciu projektu statystycznego. Wyniki dowiod艂y, 偶e obecno艣膰 ka偶dego z odczynnik贸w (tj. oleju sosnowego lub MgCl.) ma znacz膮cy wp艂yw na zmniejszenie zawarto艣ci popio艂u i zwi臋kszenie odzysku w臋gla. Zastosowanie MgCl. tylko zmniejszy艂o popi贸艂 do mniej ni偶 4,3% z odzyskiem w臋gla do 28%, podczas gdy dodanie 1,0 kg/t oleju sosnowego wraz z 4 kg/t MgCl. zwi臋kszy艂o redukcj臋 popio艂u do mniej ni偶 3% przy odzysku w臋gla do 80% przy pH 2

    Impact of the Adsorption of Bacteria on Enhancing the Separation Selectivity of Dolomite and Apatite

    The surface modification of minerals by bacteria has recently been examined in an attempt to improve their separation selectivities. In this paper, a study of the effect of Corynebacterium diphtheriae intermedius (CDI) bacteria on the dolomite/apatite separation process is reported. Bacterial interaction with both minerals was investigated employing Fourier-transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy together with measurements of the adsorption isotherm and the zeta potential. FT-IR methods were used to identify the functional groups on the surface of each mineral before and after the adsorption of bacteria, while the adsorption isotherm and the zeta potential were used to illustrate the type of adsorption process involved, i.e. physical versus chemical adsorption. The application of bioflotation processes to natural ores using CDI bacteria can lower the MgO content of the ores to less than 1%
