Abstract

Procédé d'enrichissement de minerais par flottation à l'aide d'un collecteur constitué par un thio composé, ce thio composé étant un polysulfure de dialkyle ou de dialkényle, linéaires ou ramifiés.Process for the enrichment of ores by flotation using a collector consisting of a compound thio, this compound thio being a dialkyl or dialkenyl polysulfide, linear or branched.

Description

La présente invention se rapporte à l'enrichissement de minerais par flottation avec des collecteurs organiques, constitués par des thio composés. Elle vise plus spécialement le traitement de minerais à base d'oxydes et de sulfures de métaux lourds.The present invention relates to the enrichment of ores by flotation with organic collectors, constituted by thio compounds. More specifically, it targets the processing of ores based on heavy metal oxides and sulphides.

Des composés renfermant du soufre dans leur molécule sont employés avec succès dans la technique de flottation : c'est notamment le cas des alkyl xanthates alcalins qui comptent parmi les meilleurs collecteurs connus jusqu'à présent. De même, considère-t-on comme bons collecteurs les mercaptans d'alkyles, surtout en C12 à C16' qui - malgré leur peu de solubilité dans l'eau - ont pu être avantageusement utilisés, émulsionnés avec des composés tensio-actifs.Compounds containing sulfur in their molecule are used with success in the technique of flotation: it is in particular the case of alkaline alkyl xanthates which count among the best collectors known until now. Similarly, do we consider as good collectors the alkyl mercaptans, especially in C 12 to C 16 ' which - despite their little solubility in water - could be advantageously used, emulsified with surfactant compounds .

La présente invention est basée sur la découverte que les propriétés collectrices d'un thio composé peuvent être intensifiées par une certaine accumulation d'atomes de soufre dans les molécules de ces composés. Ainsi a-t-on trouvé que des polysulfures de dialkyles peuvent donner des résultats meilleurs que le mercaptan correspondant ; c'est surprenant théoriquement, puisque les polysulfures présentent une structure moléculaire à deux chaînes lipophiles. Ce fait est d'ailleurs d'autant plus inattendu que les polysulfures d'alkyles à plus de Ca sont encore moins solubles dans l'eau que les mercaptans.The present invention is based on the discovery that the collecting properties of a thio compound can be intensified by a certain accumulation of sulfur atoms in the molecules of these compounds. Thus it has been found that dialkyl polysulfides can give better results than the corresponding mercaptan; this is surprising theoretically, since polysulfides have a molecular structure with two lipophilic chains. This fact is all the more unexpected since the alkyl polysulfides with more C a are even less soluble in water than the mercaptans.

Le procédé suivant l'invention consiste à effectuer la flottation de minerais ou de minéraux à la manière générale, connue en soi, mais avec au moins un polysulfure de dihydro- carbyle en tant que collecteur, ou conjointement avec un collecteur de type connu, ce ou ces polysulfures étant représentés par la formule

Figure imgb0001
où R et R', semblables ou différents, sont des alkyles ou alkényles pouvant porter des substituants et x est un nombre de valeur moyenne de 2 à 8.The process according to the invention consists in carrying out the flotation of ores or minerals in the general manner, known per se, but with at least one dihydro-carbyl polysulfide as collector, or jointly with a collector of known type, this or these polysulphides being represented by the formula
Figure imgb0001
where R and R ', similar or different, are alkyls or alkenyls which can carry substituents and x is a number with an average value of 2 to 8.

Les substituants des groupes hydrocarbonés R ou/et R' peuvent être d'autres radicaux aliphatiques, cycloalipha- tiques ou aryliques, des halogènes, nitriles ou de groupes fonctionnels, par exemple des OH, -COOH, N02, NH2, CONH2, esters, carbonyles, etc. Des substituants fonctionnels, procurant de l'affinité pour l'eau, sont particulièrement favorables.The substituents of the hydrocarbon groups R or / and R 'can be other aliphatic, cycloaliphatic or aryl radicals, halogens, nitriles or functional groups, for example OH, -COOH, NO 2 , NH 2 , CONH 2 , esters, carbonyls, etc. Functional substituents, providing affinity for water, are particularly favorable.

Pratiquement, les groupes R ou/et R' sont en général en C1 à C18 linéaires ou ramifiés, et surtout en C4 à C12"In practice, the groups R and / and R 'are generally in C 1 to C18 linear or branched, and especially in C4 to C 1 2 "

On connait un mode de préparation de tels polysulfures, qui consiste à traiter par exemple le mercaptan correspondant par du soufre, en présence d'une amine comme catalyseur, suivant la réaction :

Figure imgb0002
A method of preparing such polysulphides is known, which consists in treating, for example, the corresponding mercaptan with sulfur, in the presence of an amine as catalyst, according to the reaction:
Figure imgb0002

Ce procédé fournit en réalité un mélange de polysulfures de différents nombres d'atomes de S, x étant en fait une moyenne de ces nombres.This process actually provides a mixture of polysulfides of different numbers of S atoms, where x is actually an average of these numbers.

Bien qu'à partir de C8, les polysulfures suivant l'invention soient pratiquement insolubles dans l'eau, ils peuvent être introduits dans la pulpe de minerai à traiter sous la forme de solution dans un solvant, sous celle d'émulsion ou de dispersion extrêmement fine. Ainsi, peut-on employer le polysulfure en solution dans de l'alcool, du sulfure de carbone, du diméthyl sulfoxide, du benzène, du kérosène, de l'huile ou autre solvant approprié. L'émulsion peut être produite par mélange avec un liquide tensio-actif tel que polyol ou alkyl-phénol polyéthoxylé, un sulfonate de pétrole, un mercaptan polyalkoxylé, un ester d'acide gras de polyoxyalkylène ou de sorbitan, etc.Although from C 8 , the polysulfides according to the invention are practically insoluble in water, they can be introduced into the ore pulp to be treated in the form of a solution in a solvent, in that of emulsion or extremely fine dispersion. Thus, can we use polysulfide dissolved in alcohol, carbon sulfide, dimethyl sulfoxide, benzene, kerosene, oil or other suitable solvent. The emulsion can be produced by mixing with a surface-active liquid such as polyethoxylated polyol or alkylphenol, petroleum sulfonate, polyalkoxylated mercaptan, a fatty acid ester of polyoxyalkylene or sorbitan, etc.

Quant à la dispersion aqueuse ou autre, elle peut s'obtenir par la micronisation humide.As for the aqueous or other dispersion, it can be obtained by wet micronization.

Les proportions molaires des nouveaux collecteurs, suivant l'invention, à employer dans la flottation, sont les mêmes que celles de la technique connue, c'est-à-dire en général environ 0,05 à 0,5, et plus souvent de 0,1 à 0,25 mole par tonne de minerai.The molar proportions of the new collectors, according to the invention, to be used in flotation, are the same as those of the known technique, that is to say in general about 0.05 to 0.5, and more often of 0.1 to 0.25 moles per tonne of ore.

Il en résulte que les concentrations en Cu, obtenues, sont toujours supérieures, avec les polysulfures, à celles que donnent les collecteurs classiques. En outre, à proportions molaires égales, les pentasulfures permettent une récupération en cuivre comparable ou supérieure à celles des mercaptans.As a result, the Cu concentrations obtained are always higher, with the polysulphides, than those given by conventional collectors. In addition, at equal molar proportions, the pentasulfides allow a copper recovery comparable or superior to that of the mercaptans.
