フローライトをリピドライト濃縮物から分離する方法は?
Separating fluorite from lepidolite concentrates involves exploiting differences in their physical and chemical properties through methods such as froth flotation, gravity separation, and magnetic separation. Here is a general outline of the process, though specific methods may vary depending on the mineral composition, particle size, and impurities present:
1. Initial Crushing and Grinding
- 目的: Liberate the fluorite and lepidolite particles from their host rocks.
- Crush the ore to reduce the particle size and then grind to fine particles suitable for separation.
- Ensure that both minerals are sufficiently liberated from each other.
2. Froth Flotation
- 目的: Use chemical reagents to separate fluorite from lepidolite based on surface properties.
Fluorite Flotation:
Fluorite typically responds well to froth flotation due to its surface properties. The procedure involves:
- pH調整: Adjust the slurry to an acidic or moderately alkaline environment (e.g., pH ~8-9) using lime or other buffering agents.
- 集塵剤: Add collectors such as fatty acids, hydrofluoric acid, or sodium oleate to promote fluorite attachment to air bubbles.
- 抑制剤: Introduce depressants (e.g., starch or tannins) to inhibit the flotation of gangue minerals or competing lepidolite particles.
- 泡立ち剤: Include frothers like pine oil to stabilize the froth for efficient flotation.
Lepidolite Flotation:
Lepidolite, a lithium-bearing mica, can also be separated using froth flotation. Adjust conditions with:
- 集塵剤: Amine-based reagents or cationic surfactants that enhance the flotation of lepidolite.
- 抑制剤: Use depressants (e.g., sodium silicate) for gangue minerals.
- pH調整: Generally, lepidolite flotation requires different pH settings (often alkaline).
Sequential flotation may be applied to carefully separate fluorite first and lepidolite later.
3. 重力選鉱
- 目的: Utilize density differences between fluorite and lepidolite to achieve separation.
- Fluorite has a higher specific gravity (~3.0–3.2) compared to lepidolite (~2.8).
- Equipment such as shaking tables, spiral concentrators, or dense media separation techniques can be used to enhance separation.
4. 磁気分離
- Lepidolite may exhibit mild paramagnetic properties due to lithium and iron content, while fluorite is non-magnetic.
- Use magnetic separators to remove lepidolite if there are significant magnetic differences.
5. Differential Chemical Treatment (Optional)
- Acid leaching could be applied to remove any impurities selectively bonded to either fluorite or lepidolite surfaces.
6. Washing and Final Concentration
- Wash the concentrate to remove flotation reagents and improve purity.
- Final drying and particle consolidation for usability and transport.
7. 尾鉱処理
- Safely store or treat the waste material (tailings) to avoid environmental impact.
Notes:
- Testing: Conduct laboratory-scale testing to optimize reagent combinations, dosages, pH levels, and other separation parameters.
- 調整: Factors like the mineralogical composition of the ore or presence of impurities (e.g., quartz) can impact the separation method.
- 経済的考慮事項: Choose methods that maximize recovery while minimizing costs and environmental impact.
