Analysis of the Flotation Behavior of Copper Oxides Using Amyl Xanthate as Collector
摘要
ImportantOxides naturalCopper sourcesFlotation of copperCopper areXanthate theCollector mineralMineral oxidesOxides Cu3(CO3)2(OH)2, Cu2(CO3)(OH)2, and CuO, which are connected to host rocks of the aluminosilicate type. These are concentrated to provide additional value. In this research, the flotationFlotation behavior of copperCopper oxidesOxides azuriteAzurite, malachiteMalachite, and tenoriteTenorite is analyzed using a wide range of potassium amyl xanthateXanthate XAP amounts and pH values. The findings indicate that copperCopper species flotationFlotation reduces with increasing pH. Hence, 89.8% w/w is produced at pH 5.5 and 0.15 g/L of XAP; at a pulp potentialPulp potential of +272 mV, this value is given in reference to the standard hydrogenHydrogen electrode (SHE).
