In iron ore wet processing, especially in flotation, sodium silicate is widely used to disperse the kaolinite over a wide range of pH values (Al-Wakeel and El-Rahman, 2006, Ma, 2011). The SiO 2 to Na 2 O ratio (modulus) of sodium silicate varies from 1 to 3.75 ( Sollenberger and Greenwalt, 1958, Leja, 1982 ).

Sodium fluorosilicate was previously used as a depressant for gangue minerals in Bayan Obo [61], but it was replaced with the more selective H205 collector, and sodium fluorosilicate is now used as a flotation activator. Sodium silicate is the current alternative for sodium fluorosilicate in the flotation of Mountain Pass ores [61, 129]. In ...

Flotation is widely used to separate valuable minerals from the rock and fine coal particles from clay, silt, shale, and other ash-producing matter. It is usually preceded by crushing …

Sodium Metabisulfite aka MBS is used for pH control in froth flotation to control Pyrite depression. Below is a graph showing pH VS pyrite recovery at various collector addition rates. It is also used to prevent flotation of sphalerite by copper activation in the presence of Tennantite/Covellite in the ore.

Numerous copper flotation plants have to use high salinity water, but high salinity water is detrimental to copper flotation by promoting copper activation on pyrite. Despite the effective depression of pyrite by the combined use of sodium metabisulfite (MBS, Na 2 S 2 O 5) and Hi-Cr steel grinding media in high salinity water, many copper ...

Yingdong Du [75] used kerosene as a collector, 2# oil as a ing agent, and sodium silicate as an inhibitor in the flotation test of a flake graphite ore in Inner Mongolia.
