    The objective of the study is to investigate the properties of water-air microdispersion of floatation agent solution. The air-water emulsion of flotation agent solution is obtained in the air-water microemulsion generator. Butyl airfloat, foaming agent C-7 and cationic collector butyltriethylenetetramine B-TETA have been studied as reagents. The factors influencing emulsion stability have been determined. It was found that the temperature increase worsens the stability of microdispersion, the optimal speed of the generator is 6 000 rpm and higher. Floatation agent solutions give stable microdispersions at different solution concentrations. The optimum microdispersion is obtained at a generator speed of 6 000 rpm from 0,5 g/l solution of butyl airfloat, from 50 g/l solution of C-7 and B-TETA. The particle size of the dispersion ranges from 41-59 Ī¼m

    The research objective is to study the effect of the water-air emulsion size of the foaming agent solution on the flotation ability of non-ferrous metal minerals. An air-water emulsion of a foaming agent solution was obtained in a water-air microemulsion generator. It has been established that the supply of microbubbles to the monomineral flotation process makes it possible to increase the yield of minerals with different dispersion ability and accelerate the flotation process by 10 - 15 %

    The research presents the results of laboratory studies on the flotation processing of mature copper tailings using KF2 composite reagent. KF2 flotation agent is a mixture of sodium butyl xanthate, thionocarbamate, and composite aerofloat at a ratio of 1:1:3. In the base regime, a rough copper concentrate obtained had a copper content of 10,9 % with a recovery of 74,91 %. The use of KF2 composite flotation reagent increases the extraction of copper into rough copper concentrate by 5,31 %. This made it possible to obtain a rough copper concentrate with a copper content of 13,0 % and a recovery of 80,22 %. Consumption of KF2 flotation reagent is halved compared to the basic sodium butyl xanthate collector

    Recycling technology for gold-containing tailings with the use of a composite reagent microemulsion

    The paper contains the laboratory study results for the flotation processing of gold-containing tailings with the use of the composite reagent (CF). The CF flotation reagent is a microemulsion from a composition of sodium butyl xanthate and reaflot. A gold-containing concentrate was obtained with a gold content of 6,7 g/t with a recovery of 59,71 % in the basic mode. The use of the CF composite flotation reagent increases the gold extraction into the gold-containing concentrate by 3,77 %, as compared with the main collector - sodium butyl xanthate. The consumption of CF flotation reagent is reduced by 20 %
