How to Solve the Challenges in Mineral Processing Dispersants? Chemi Tech's Professional Solutions Enhance Recovery and Grade

In mineral processing operations, do you often face dilemmas such as slime coating reducing concentrate grade, inefficient separation between valuable minerals and gangue, high reagent consumption, and stagnant recovery rates? These pain points directly constrain the economic benefits of processing plants. Traditional dispersion approaches often lack specificity and yield unstable results. Chemi Tech, with deep expertise in mineral processing, is committed to providing efficient and stable customized dispersant solutions that target the core needs of the market.

Our solution begins with in-depth diagnosis. The Chemi Tech technical team first conducts a systematic analysis of your ore sample to identify the slime composition, particle size distribution, and surface properties. Based on this, we screen and formulate specialized dispersants with strong targeting and high selectivity. These agents effectively adsorb onto the surface of fine slime particles, preventing their agglomeration or coating on coarse minerals through electrostatic repulsion or steric hindrance. This significantly improves the dispersion state of the pulp, creating ideal conditions for subsequent efficient separation.

The specific implementation involves three steps: First, laboratory bench-scale testing evaluates the effects of different formulations on pulp settling rate, froth properties, and preliminary separation results to establish a basic reagent scheme. Second, continuous simulation tests are conducted to optimize reagent addition points and dosages in a dynamic process closer to production conditions, ensuring smooth process integration. Third, we provide on-site commissioning support, guiding reagent preparation and addition, and fine-tuning parameters based on actual feedback to achieve a smooth transition and maximize results.

We served a processing plant dealing with complex polymetallic ore. The raw ore contained a large amount of easily slimed gangue minerals, leading to sticky froth, poor selectivity in flotation, consistently substandard concentrate grade, and significant metal loss. After applying Chemi Tech's customized dispersant, the pulp dispersion improved markedly, and the froth became crisp and elastic. Ultimately, while maintaining a similar recovery rate, the target concentrate grade saw a significant increase, and overall reagent costs were effectively controlled, earning high recognition from the client.

Effective dispersion in mineral processing is not merely about adding reagents; it is a systematic engineering task requiring scientific diagnosis and precise matching. Choosing Chemi Tech means you gain not only high-quality chemical aids but also comprehensive technical collaboration from the laboratory to the production line. Let us work together to solve your dispersion challenges and unlock the maximum value of your minerals.
