The flotation has been successfully applied to process the iron ore for the particle size (Ps) from 10 µm up to 150 µm. The presence of the slimes (Ps < 10 µm) is harmful on the reverse flotation of quartz, so they are usually prior removed by hydrocyclones. The main effects of the presence of slimes on the flotation are related to …

Reagents in iron ores flotation
The role of reagents utilised in iron ores flotation is reviewed. Desliming and flotation stages should be performed at pH levels as low as possible to reduce the expenses with caustic soda. Ether amines are by far the mostly utilised class of collector. The degree of neutralisation of the ether amine is an important process parameter.
