Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a collector composition for beneficiation of phosphates from phosphate containing ores, their use in flotation processes and to a method for beneficiation of phosphates using said collector composition.
  • a majority of phosphate fertilizer supply is produced by processing sedimentary phosphate ores.
  • the global depletion of easily accessible high-grade phosphate deposits leads to a rising demand of beneficiation technologies in phosphate ore processing, in order to make low-grade phosphate rock accessible as phosphate source.
  • the phosphate containing ores are processed to achieve an apatite concentrate, which is further processed to phosphoric acid and then into fertilizers.
  • flotation processes either direct and/or reverse flotation processes are applied for the beneficiation of phosphate containing ores and often several flotation stages are required.
  • the froth flotation as separation technology in principle makes use of differences in hydrophobicity between the valuable desired material and the waste gangue impuri- ties.
  • the type of phosphate deposit affects the flotation performance.
  • the desired phosphate concentration can be achieved by flotation of silicate impurities from the finely ground phosphate containing ores (reverse flotation) when the gangue impurities essentially consist of siliceous materials.
  • beneficiation of phosphate ores by separation of carbonate from phosphate presents especial difficulties since it requires a reagent selective between two chemically similar surfaces (apatite vs. calcite) (H. Sis et al., Minerals Engineering, 16 (2003) 577 - 585).
  • the main primary collectors are based on partly unsaturated fatty acids (C12-C18), which are employed at pH 4-5, with phosphoric acid as depressant. Since fatty acids are badly soluble in water at that pH, secondary collectors are used, typically anionic or nonionic surfactants, to improve selectivity and recovery.
  • Surfactants are amphiphilic interface-active compounds which comprise a hydrophobic molecular moiety and also a hydrophilic molecular moiety and, in addition, can have charged and uncharged groups. Surfactants are orientedly absorbed at interfaces and thereby reduce the inter- facial tension so that these can form, in solution, association colloids above the critical micelle- formation concentration, meaning that substances which are per se water-insoluble are solubil- ized. On account of these properties, surfactants are used, for example, for wetting such as fibers or hard surfaces. Typical files of application are detergents and cleaners for textiles and leather, as formulation of paints and coatings and also for example in the flotation process of non-sulfidic ores.
  • a secondary collector on flotation performance is crit- ical due to the low solubility and limited self-emulsification ability of fatty acids at low pH, which in turn is required to achieve selectivity between carbonates and phosphates (e.g. calcite and apatite).
  • a common class of high performance flotation additives for phosphate beneficiation are alkyl phenol ethoxylates (APEOs), powerful emulsifying additives with a hazardous environmental profile whose application is restricted or banned in many jurisdictions.
  • APEOs alkyl phenol ethoxylates
  • Other suitable second- ary collectors are sulfonate compounds. With these compounds a typical P2O5 grade of up to 30 wt% can be achieved starting with a typical sedimentary ore containing approx.
  • P2O5 content 15 to 20 wt% P2O5.
  • P2O5 content larger than 30 % is often required.
  • Nonionic surfactants based on alkoxylated alcohols as secondary collector are commonly not able to achieve the desired selectivity.
  • WO 2010070088 describes mixtures of surfactants comprising branched short-chained and branched long-chained components, which are alkoxylation products of alkanols.
  • the short- chained alkanols contain 8 to 12 carbon atoms, C2-10 alkoxy groups and a degree of branching of at least 1.
  • the long-chained alkanols contain 15 to 19 carbon atoms, C2-10 alkoxy groups and a degree of branching of at least 2.5.
  • US 86571 18 discloses a collector for the separation of phosphate by flotation of carbonates contained in non-sulfurous minerals, particularly phosphoric rock, preferably apatite.
  • the collector comprises phosphoric ester.
  • WO 2016041916 discloses the use of branched fatty alcohol-based compounds selected from the group of fatty alcohols with 12-16 carbon atoms having a degree of branching of 1 -3, and their alkoxylates with a degree of ethoxylation of up to 3, as secondary collector for the froth flotation of non-sulfidic ores in combination with a primary collector selected from the group of am- photeric and anionic surface-active compounds. The use for reverse flotation is not disclosed.
  • EP 0270933 discloses the use of branched fatty alcohols and their alkoxylates.
  • the described compositions in EP 0270933 are only suitable to achieve a grade of less than 31 % which may cause problems because of high dosing.
  • collector compositions of the present invention are at least binary or ternary compositions that are suitable for direct and/or reverse flotation processes, show increased selectivity, offer the possibility of dose reduction and can be used for beneficiation of phosphate from phosphate containing ores.
