A preliminary beneficiation study of low-grade skarn phosphate rocks from Mactung tungsten deposit, along the Yukon and Northwest Territories border in Canada, was carried out through standard Bond Work Index, grinding test and laboratory batch flotation tests. The skarn phosphate sample assayed 12.65% P2O5 (about 30% apatite), 31.71% CaO and 35.46% SiO2. The main gangue minerals included calcite, quartz, calc-silicates, amphibole, feldspar, and pyrrhotite. The sample had a Bond Work Index of 19.04 kWh/t, belonging to a hard ore category. The beneficiation study of the skarn phosphate sample was carried out using “direct–reverse flotation” method. The direct flotation was carried out using sodium carbonate, sodium silicate solution (water glass) and sodium oleate. Sulfuric acid and phosphoric acid were used in the reverse flotation of the carbonate gangue. One phosphorous rougher flotation, one bulk cleaner flotation and one carbonate reverse flotation at ore grind size of 86% passing 53 µm led to a phosphate concentrate assaying 28.68% P2O5, 12.06% SiO2, 0.72% MgO and 46.98% CaO, at a P2O5 recovery of 70.9%.

The paper presents flotation of two phosphate ore samples of different origin. Statistical analysis was used to study the effect of operating parameters on flotation efficiency. The paper proposes to increase the efficiency of flotation processing of magmatic phosphate ore with a low grade of the valuable component (P2O5 = 10.88 %), containing nepheline and feldspars, by means of direct anionic flotation. Authors present an optimization of anionic flotation using tall oil fatty acids mixed with anionic phospholane as an anionic collector. The effect of adding soda ash to compensate for the influence of calcium cations on technological parameters of P2O5 flotation was examined. The results of studying the flotation of nepheline ore (flotation tailings of magmatic phosphate ore) showed that replacement of phospholane with oxyethylated isotridecanol allowed to obtain a high-quality concentrate. It was estimated that with the addition of Na2CO3 in the amount of 2,000 g/t, a concentrate was obtained with the grade and recovery of phosphorus pentoxide equal to 39.15 and 94.19 %, respectively. The paper proposes to increase the efficiency of flotation processing of sedimentary phosphate ore with a low grade of the valuable component (P2O5 = 22.5 %), containing gypsum and quartz, by means of desliming followed by anionic or cationic reverse flotation. Tall oil fatty acid with anionic phospholane was used as a collector in anionic reverse flotation, and amine was used in cationic reverse flotation. Sodium tripolyphosphate was used as a P2O5 depressant. It was found to be an effective depressant in both anionic and cationic flotation. When analyzing the statistical plan, it was estimated that the maximum grade of the valuable component in the concentrate (P2O5 = 31.23 %) and the recovery to concentrate of 95.22 % were obtained in the chamber product at amine consumption of 950.88 g/t and sodium tripolyphosphate consumption of 500 g/t.

On the basis of the contrastive research into the flotation performance of several vegetable oil fatty acids, the rapeseed oil fatty acid with better performance was screened out from many fatty acids, and its linolenic acid C18:3content is15.81%, then through modifying and compounding, new magnesium removal collector EM-LS-01was obtained. With the use of this agent in certain low-grade high-Mg phosphorite, the phosphate concentrate indexes of single reverse flotation are grade of 30.25% P2O5, recovery of 90.63% and content of 0.99% MgO.

According to the properties of a medium-and-low grade collophanite, a contrast testing study was conducted on the basis of three kinds of flotation process. The result suggests that it is difficult to obtain high-quality phosphate concentrate from removing carbonate minerals only by the use of reverse flotation process. In contrast, with the use of direct-reverse flotation process and double reverse flotation process, the separation of phosphorus minerals and gangue minerals in the ore can be realized effectively, as the result, the P2O5 grades of phosphorus concentrate are 32.29% and 31.26%, respectively. Considering the above factors, we recommend direct-reverse flotation process as the method to deal with the medium-and-low grade refractory collophanite.

The purpose of this study is to optimize the composition of CSA (calcium sulfoaluminate) cement with sodium silicate (Na2SiO3) and gypsum for binder jetting 3D printing. The preliminary test was carried out with an applicator to decide the proper thickness of one layer before using the 3D printer. A liquid binder was then selected to maintain the shape of the particles. Based on the results, the optimal mixture of dry materials and a liquid activator was derived through various parametric studies. For dry materials, the optimum composition of CSA cement, gypsum, and sand was suggested, and the liquid activator made with sodium silicate solution and VMA (viscosity modified agent) were selected. The setting time with gypsum and sodium silicate was controlled within 30 s. In case of the delayed setting time and the rapid setting mixture, the jetting line was printed thicker or thinner and the accuracy of the printout was degraded. In order to adjust the viscosity of the liquid activator, 10% of the VMA was used in 35% of sodium silicate solution and the viscosity of 200–400 cP was suitable to be sprayed from the nozzle. With this optimal mixture, a prototype of atypical decorative wall was printed, and the compressive strength was measured at about 7 MPa.

Abstract Bauxite reaction residue (BRR) produced from the poly-aluminum chloride (PAC) coagulant industry is a solid acidic waste that is harmful to environment. A low temperature synthesis route to convert the waste into water glass was reported. Silica dissolution process was systematically studied, including the thermodynamic analysis and the influence of calcium and aluminum on the leaching of amorphous silica. Simulation studies have shown that calcium and aluminum combine with silicon to form hydrated calcium silicate, silica–alumina gel, and zeolite, respectively, thereby hindering the leaching of silica. Maximizing the removal of calcium, aluminum, and chlorine can effectively improve the leaching of silicon in the subsequent process, and corresponding element removal rates are 42.81%, 44.15%, and 96.94%, respectively. The removed material is not randomly discarded and is reused to prepare PAC. The silica extraction rate reached 81.45% under optimal conditions (NaOH; 3 mol L−1, L S−1; 5/1, 75°C, 2 h), and sodium silicate modulus (nSiO2:nNa2O) is 1.11. The results indicated that a large amount of silica was existed in amorphous form. Precipitated silica was obtained by acidifying sodium silicate solution at optimal pH 7.0. Moreover, sodium silicate (1.11) further synthesizes sodium silicate (modulus 3.27) by adding precipitated silica at 75°C.

As a continuation of a previous research work carried out to estimate the Bond work index (wi) by using a simulator based on the cumulative kinetic model (CKM), a deeper analysis was carried out to determine the link between the kinetic and energy parameters in the case of metalliferous and non-metallic ore samples. The results evidenced a relationship between the CKM kinetic parameter k and the grindability index gbp; and also with the wi, obtained following the standard procedure. An excellent correlation was obtained in both cases, posing the definition of alternative work index estimation tests with the advantages of more straightforward and quicker laboratory procedures.
