Description

Low-grade associated molybdenum-copper-sulfur ore flotation composite collector and flotation method
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of mineral flotation, in particular to a low-grade associated molybdenum-copper-sulfur ore flotation composite collector and a flotation method.
Background
Molybdenum is an important rare strategic metal, and is widely used in the fields of iron and steel, metallurgy, military, chemical industry, biological medicine, environmental protection, aerospace and the like because of the advantages of high melting point, high strength, high temperature resistance, corrosion resistance, grinding resistance and the like. Currently 99% of the world's molybdenum production is obtained from molybdenite. Molybdenum recovered from copper molybdenum ores is reported to account for about 48% of world molybdenum production. Therefore, strengthening the comprehensive recovery of associated molybdenum in copper ore has been one of the key points of research of mineral processing workers at home and abroad.
With the rapid development of the industry in China, mineral resources are exploited in large quantities, single and easily-processed copper-molybdenum ores are increasingly reduced, and low-grade copper-molybdenum co-associated ore resources difficult to process become main objects of copper-molybdenum resource exploitation in China. The low-grade molybdenum-copper-sulfur polymetallic ore generally has the characteristics of relatively complex mineral composition, compact symbiosis among various minerals, complex mosaic relation, low content of associated molybdenite, finer granularity and the like, and the recovery rate of the associated molybdenum obtained by adopting the conventional beneficiation reagent and beneficiation process is often lower than 30%. The main reasons for the lower recovery rate of the associated molybdenum of the ore are not only related to the complex nature of the ore, but also related to the selection of mineral separation process flow, medicament system and other factors, wherein the research and the development and the use of the collector have a direct relation to the improvement of the recovery rate of the molybdenum. At present, a copper-selecting collecting agent mainly comprising xanthates or black drugs or xanthates or thiourethanes is commonly adopted in the aspect of collecting agents to be combined with kerosene or diesel oil, the collecting agents sometimes cannot well collect copper and molybdenum, the agents with strong collecting power often have insufficient selectivity on pyrite and calcium aluminosilicate gangue minerals, and the agents with strong selectivity have weak collecting power on micro-fine particle embedded and low-grade associated molybdenite. Therefore, the conventional flotation reagent has insufficient adaptability to the ore, and the development of a low-grade associated molybdenum-copper-sulfur ore flotation collector is urgently needed, so that the associated molybdenum recovery rate index is effectively improved while the main metal mineral copper flotation index is not influenced, and the method has important significance in improving the molybdenum ore resource utilization rate and increasing the economic benefit for mine enterprises.

Principle and advantages
Conventional collectors for molybdenite flotation are nonpolar hydrocarbon oils such as kerosene, diesel oil, whose main component is a mixture of C11-C16 alkanes, alkenes, cycloalkanes and aromatics. According to the front-line orbit energy analysis of hydrocarbon compounds and molybdenite, when the carbon atoms are the same and the structures are different, the collecting capacity of the hydrocarbon compounds to the molybdenite is gradually increased according to alkane, cycloalkane, alkene and arene. Therefore, the invention selects aromatic hydrocarbon compounds (alpha-methylnaphthalene, beta-methylnaphthalene and 2-isopropylnaphthalene) with strong collecting power to be used in combination with nonpolar hydrocarbon oil, which can enhance the collecting capability of hydrocarbon oil on molybdenite and improve the recovery rate of fine fraction molybdenite.
The sulfur nitrogen esters belong to polar collecting agents, can have stronger chelation with molybdenum atoms on the 'edges' of molybdenite, and the nonpolar hydrocarbon oil can have adsorption action mainly based on Van der Waals force with the 'faces' of the molybdenite, so that the sulfur nitrogen esters and the nonpolar hydrocarbon oil can cooperatively strengthen the collection action of the molybdenite. In addition, the sulfur nitrogen esters are effective collectors of copper sulfide minerals, have weak collecting power on pyrite, have good selectivity, have the capability of collecting bubbles, use small amount and high flotation speed, and the proper pH value of the flotation copper sulfide ores is higher than that of xanthates, black drugs and thiourethane, so that the copper sulfur separation effect can be improved.
The invention combines the laurinol polyoxyethylene ether or laurinol polyoxyethylene ester and other nonionic surfactants with the hydrocarbon oil, and can be added into flotation pulp to be adsorbed on an oil-water interface to reduce the surface energy of the interface, so that the oil droplets are difficult to be combined and become large, and the oil-water disperse phase is stable, thereby achieving the effect of emulsifying the hydrocarbon oil, further improving the dispersion of the hydrocarbon oil and improving the flotation effect. In addition, laurinol polyoxyethylene ether or laurinol polyoxyethylene ester is used as a nonionic emulsifier of hydrocarbon oil, has better flotation selectivity than Xin Taike S, monoglyceride, sodium dodecyl benzene sulfonate and other ionic emulsifiers, and does not have the effect of collecting calcium aluminosilicate gangue minerals like the ionic emulsifier; moreover, compared with the common nonionic emulsifier alkylphenol ethoxylates, the nonionic emulsifier alkylphenol ethoxylates are more environment-friendly, and degradation products of the nonionic emulsifier alkylphenol ethoxylates do not contain alkylphenol and other harmful substances, so that the nonionic emulsifier has less harm to the environment.
The invention determines the combination of each component and the weight part range of each component through a large number of mineral separation experiments, and the combination of the components and the weight part range can play the synergistic effect among the components.
The composite collector has the characteristics of strong copper-molybdenum ore collecting capacity, weak collecting capacity to pyrite and calcium aluminum silicate gangue, good selectivity, small dosage, good dispersion in water, easy addition and use and the like, and is favorable for improving concentrate grade and associated molybdenum recovery rate in the flotation of low-grade associated molybdenum-copper-sulfur ore. The roughing recovery rate of molybdenum obtained by the composite collector is improved by 20-46% compared with that of kerosene, diesel oil and thiourethane serving as conventional collectors, and the problem of low utilization rate of molybdenum resources associated with the ore is effectively solved.
