Effect of Stabilizing the Final Density of Thickened Pulp on the Quality of Concentrate

Аннотация

A study is made of the effect of the final density of the pulp in the pulp-thickening operation on the quality of the final flotation product at the Talnakh Concentrator Plant. The effect of the reagents that are used on the flotation process is thoroughly analyzed. The main relations which express the dependence of the quality indices of the finished concentrate on the thickening operation are examined and results obtained under actual production conditions are reported. The effect of the density of the incoming pulp in a flotation machine on the quality of the concentrate is evaluated.
