A mineral processing plant encountered persistent issues in copper ore flotation: excessive froth thickness caused valuable minerals to overflow, reducing both concentrate grade and recovery rate.
The technical team tried various adjustments:
1、Modifying flotation cell speed
2、Adjusting frother dosage
3、Optimizing pulp pH
However, these measures failed to deliver satisfactory results, with recovery rates consistently below industry average.
After implementing Chemi Tech Mineral Processing Defoamer, the problems were resolved effectively. Key features include:
1、Rapid froth thickness reduction while maintaining optimal stability
2、No interference with flotation reagent selectivity
3、Acid/alkali resistance for various pulp conditions
"Our concentrate grade improved by 1.2 percentage points and recovery increased 8%," said Process Engineer Wang. "More importantly, froth control became more stable and operational parameters easier to manage."
1、Specialized Formulations: Tailored for different mineral characteristics
2、Fast Action: Visible results within 30 seconds
3、Cost-effective: Low dosage, free of heavy metals
4、Wide Compatibility: Suitable for copper, lead, zinc, gold and other metal ores
The production manager commented: "Chemi Tech defoamer helped us break through production bottlenecks, achieving more stable flotation performance and significant economic benefits."
