flotation rare earth minerals

A new collector for rare earth mineral flotation

A new collector for bastnaesite flotation - modified hydroxamic acid (MOHA) has been developed through several years laboratory research. The experimental results of flotation of pure bastnaesite mineral and rare earth ores, and the application experience in flotation plants showed that MOHA is an efficient collector for bastnaesite …

Abstract. (ion and precipitate) flotation is a promising green method of recovery of rare earth elements (REE) from leachates of the primary and secondary resources. However, the capabilities of flotation in solutions simulating real leachates are currently poorly understood, especially for green surfactants as collectors.

Determination of surface chemistry and flotation properties of rare

Flotation is a standard method used to recovery rare earth minerals from complex, magmatic and hydrothermal deposits (Romero and Mccord, 2012, Khanchi et al., 2014). Allanite is a rare earth silicate mineral found in the epidote mineral group. The general formula of allanite is A 2 M 3 Si 3 O 12 [OH].

Rare earth elements (REEs) found in coal are in the form of minerals, ion-adsorbed onto clay surfaces or inner layers, or organically bound. Rare earth minerals such as monazite exist in coal and have grain sizes smaller than 5 µm. In this study, froth flotation was successful in concentrating rare earth minerals existing in a thickener …
