In this study, reverse flotation was applied to recover phosphate from a very low grade (5.01% of P 2 O 5) sedimentary ore.Sodium silicate, starch, tannic acid, aluminum sulfate, (Na,K)Tartarat, sodium tripolyphosphate, H 3 PO 4, and H 2 SO 4 were used as phosphate mineral depressants in acidic and alkaline conditions. Oleic acid and Armac-T were added as carbonate and silicate collectors ...

Phosphorite, phosphate rock or rock phosphate is a non-detrital sedimentary rock that contains high amounts of phosphate minerals.The phosphate content of phosphorite (or grade of phosphate rock) varies greatly, from 4% to 20% phosphorus pentoxide (P 2 O 5).Marketed phosphate rock is enriched ("beneficiated") to at least 28%, often more than 30% P 2 O 5.This occurs through washing, screening ...

In view of the large quantities of phosphate rock processed by froth flotation, such a development can result in a substantial increase in total amount of phosphorous values recovered. Further, the present flotation agents have a limited tolerance for calcium, magnesium and like ions, present in the typically "hard" water used in the flotation ...

Phosphate rock from the mines is first sent to beneficiation units to separate sand and clay and ... processed through multiple steps of phosphate flotation and then diluent flotation. Further processing may include filtration and/or drying, depending on the phosphoric acid plant requirements. As is the

Rock phosphate. Rock phosphate is the source of all phosphate products. It is used in fertilizer, animal feed, and industrial applications. OCP extracts rock phosphate in a way that uses less electricity and water, making us world leaders in more sustainable phosphate production. Download PDF.

The investigation of carbonate flotation of the phosphate rock feed to the phosphoric acid plant as a means of reducing the calcium and magnesium content of the rock used to produce phosphoric acid is of interest because the rock to be treated is already ground for use in phosphoric acid manufacture. Reduction of calcium would reduce the

Phosphate: Six "Sub-A" Flotation Cells produce 61.1 tons per hour of cleaned phosphate concentrate. Over a hundred machines are recovering phosphate in the Florida fields. Reagent Combinations. Generally a fatty-acid reagent combination is employed to float the phosphate from the silica to produce a grade of 70 to 72 per cent BPL.

Phosphate rock needs processing to reduce the content of gangue minerals such as silicates, carbonates, and clays to meet the requirements of the phosphate industry. Froth flotation method has ...

After beneficiation, the phosphate rock concentrate is utilized to produce phosphoric acid via a wet-process in which sulfuric acid is used to digest phosphate. During these processes, REEs and some phosphorus get lost in the byproducts including phosphatic clay, flotation tailings, phosphogypsum (PG), and phosphoric sludge.

Phosphate rock undergoes a variety of beneficiation stages and each of those has different power, labour and consumable requirements. ... Assets with a full floatation beneficiation process consumes more power and consumables and therefore has a larger weighting of its cost in dollar denominated terms.

A low-grade siliceous sedimentary phosphate rock assaying 22.05% P205 was upgraded by double float (direct and reverse) technology. The rock contains collophane (carbonate fluorapatite) as the valuable phosphate mineral along with siliceous, carbonaceous and clay minerals. A process was developed which yielded a high-grade phosphate concentrate with improved recovery rate.

single stage flotation of sedimentary phosphate rock. Thus, the commonly used phosphate flota­ tion process in Florida is the "double float" process, viz. anionic flotation of phosphate min­ erals at alkaline pH, rougher flotation, followed by acid scrubbing and cationic "reverse" flota­ tion of silica from the rougher phosphate con­
