The process of physically or chemically separating useful minerals from unwanted minerals (usually called gangue) or unwanted minerals in a mineral feedstock, or separating a plurality of useful minerals, is called beneficiation.
The flotation method, which is an important beneficiation method, is a method of sorting minerals according to differences in floatability among the minerals depending on differences in physicochemical properties of the surfaces of the mineral particles, and sorting is performed by utilizing differences in wettability (hydrophobicity or hydrophilicity) of the surfaces of various mineral raw material particles to water. Generally referred to as froth flotation. Natural hydrophobic minerals are few, and a collecting agent is usually added into ore pulp to enhance the hydrophobicity of the minerals to be floated; various regulators are added to improve the selectivity; adding foaming agent and aerating to generate bubbles, attaching hydrophobic mineral particles to the bubbles, floating and separating.
The most basic behavior in the flotation process is mineralization of the flotation bubbles, i.e. attachment of minerals, drugs and bubbles.

6. The method of using a pilot multi-stage mineral flotation plant according to any one of claims 1 to 5, comprising the steps of:
s1, adding ore pulp into a flotation tank (20) of a front-stage mineral flotation device, starting stirring and introducing airflow, enabling the ore pulp to move upwards under the action of an impeller (21), enabling the ore pulp to enter a gap between a blocking cylinder (40) and the flotation tank (20) through the upper edge of the blocking cylinder (40) and flow downwards along the gap, enabling the ore pulp at the lower part of the gap to enter the lower part of the blocking cylinder (40) through a backflow grating (41) under the action of negative pressure below the impeller (21) to form backflow, enabling the airflow to be introduced from the lower part of the impeller (21) and then broken into a plurality of micro bubbles under the combined action of the impeller (21) and the blocking cylinder (40), during the continuous reflux process, the mineral attached on the micro-bubbles floats upwards to a foam forming area (27), then the minerals flow into the guide groove (22) by overflowing the upper edge of the flotation tank (20) and are conveyed into the flotation tank (20) of the next stage of mineral flotation device through a concentrate discharge port (23) and a concentrate conveying pipe (80);
s2, adopting the same method as the previous stage mineral flotation device to carry out concentration, leading the floated concentrate to flow into the next stage mineral flotation device for flotation, carrying out concentration for multiple times in sequence until the floated concentrate reaches the preset requirement, and discharging the concentrate meeting the requirement through a concentrate discharge port (23) of the last stage mineral flotation device;
s3, after the backflow flotation is carried out for a period of time, a peristaltic pump (26) is started to convey the tailings at the bottom of the flotation tank (20) of the next-stage mineral flotation device into the flotation tank (20) of the previous-stage mineral flotation device through a tailing discharge port (25) and a tailing conveying pipe (90), so that the tailings of the next stage are conveyed back to the flotation tank (20) of the previous stage in sequence, the tailings are conveyed to the first-stage mineral flotation device for scavenging, and finally the tailings are discharged through the tailing discharge port (25) of the first-stage mineral flotation device.
