Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of mineral flotation, in particular to a device for performing flotation by adopting nano bubbles.
Background
Froth flotation processes are often used to sort fine particle minerals and have better efficiency and lower cost than table concentrator processes, high gradient magnetic separation and oil agglomeration. The main principle of the flotation method is based on the difference of surface chemical properties of minerals and slag, and the minerals and impurities are separated by utilizing the natural hydrophobicity of the surfaces of mineral particles and the hydrophilicity of the slag.
With the continuous development and consumption of mineral resources on earth by human beings, ore resources rich in ores and easy to process are gradually reduced, and the demand of metal materials is increased, so that poor, fine and miscellaneous ores have to be mined and sorted. Such ores must be ground very finely to allow sufficient monomer dissociation of the useful minerals, which in some cases means that the material needs to be ground to a particle size of less than 10 μm. However, as the ore size decreases, the flotation behavior of the mineral particles changes radically, and conventional flotation processes have difficulty in adequately recovering these useful fine fraction minerals due to the large size of the froth produced.
