The study aimed to explore appropriate flotation reagents to utilize lead minerals from complex and refractory lead oxide ores in Yunnan. Based on the research on the properties of the material, the reagent regime was investigated and a technological flowsheet consisting of one roughing flotation, two scavenging flotation and two concentrate flotation was adopted to perform the closed circuit flotation experiment. The optimum regulator of flotation experiment was determined as sodium silicate, sulfidizing agent as Na2S and collector as isoamyl xanthogenate. Under such a condition of reagent types and their appropriate reagent dosages, a lead recovery of 76.55% with a concentrate grade of 58.67% was obtained, which effectively improved utilization of lead resource.

The optimization condition of flotation reagents of complex and refractory lead oxide ores from Yunnan was studied in this paper. Based on the research on the properties of the material, the grinding fineness and reagent dosages were investigated and a technological flowsheet consisting of one roughing flotation, two scavenging flotation and two concentrate flotation was adopted. The optimum parameters of flotation experiment were determined as grinding fineness of 85%, dosage of sodium silicate at 800 g/t, dosage of Na2S at 1200 g/t and dosage of isoamyl xanthate at 600 g/t. Under such a condition, a lead recovery of 76.55% with a concentrate grade of 58.67% was obtained, which effectively improved utilization of lead resource.

The study aimed to explore appropriate flotation reagents to recover copper minerals from a high content of slime and refractory oxidized copper ores. Based on the research on the properties of the material, the reagent regime was investigated and a technological flowsheet consisting of one roughing flotation, two concentrate flotation, three scavenging flotation and one concentrate-scavenging flotation was adopted to perform the closed circuit floatation experiment. The optimum depressor of flotation experiment was determined as CHO, activator as (NH4)2SO4 and collector as isoamyl xanthogenate. Under such a condition of reagent types and their appropriate reagent dosages, a copper recovery of 75.03% with a concentrate grade of 18.01% was obtained.

The study aims to comprehensive recovery of Cu, Mo, Co and Fe from copper polymetallic sulphide ore in Sichuan province, China. In the light of the minerals characteristics, a united flow sheet, i.e., flotation-magnetic separation with new powerful flotation reagents were used to effectively recovery copper together with the associated valuable metals (Mo, Co and Fe) from the ore. The result of the closed circuit experiment shows that a copper recovery of 93.38% with a concentrate grade of 21.25%, Mo recovery of 45.72% with a concentrate grade of 45.78%, Co recovery of 46.42% with a concentrate grade of 0.46% and Fe recovery of 38.26% with a concentrate grade of 63.73% were achieved from the ore.

In this study, sulfuric acid leaching and gravity shaking-table separation by shaking a table are used to extract lead and zinc from a Pb-Zn oxidizing roasting cinder. The oxidizing roasting cinder—containing 16.9% Pb, 30.5% Zn, 10.3% Fe and 25.1% S—was obtained from a Pb-Zn sulfide ore in the Hanyuan area of China by a flotation-rotary kiln oxidizing roasting process. Anglesite and lead oxide were the main Pb-bearing minerals, while zinc sulfate, zinc oxide and zinc ferrite were the main Zn-bearing minerals. The results show that a part of lead contained in lead oxide is transformed to anglesite, and a 3PbO·PbSO4·H2O-dominated new lead mineral phase after acid leaching. A zinc leaching efficiency of 96.7% was obtained under the leaching conditions used: a leaching temperature of 55 °C; a leaching time of 90 min; a sulfuric acid dosage of 20%; a sulfurous acid dosage of 4%; a cinder particle size of <0.3 mm; and a solid-liquid ratio of R = 1:4. After the gravity shaking-table separation, a lead concentrate with 50.2% Pb, 2.33% Zn and lead recovery of 86.0% was produced. The main chemical compounds in leaching residue are anglesite, 3PbO·PbSO4·H2O, SiO2 and ZnFe2O4, while the main chemical compounds in lead concentrate are anglesite, 3PbO·PbSO4·H2O and SiO2.

Spent lead paste is the main component in lead-acid batteries reaching end of life. It contains about 55% lead sulphate and 35% lead dioxide, as well as minor amounts of lead oxide. It is necessary to recycle spent lead paste with minimal pollution and low energy consumption instead of the conventional smelting method. In this study, a novel approach involving hydrometallurgical desulphurisation and thermal degradation is developed to recover lead as PbO products from spent lead acid batteries. First, the desulphurisation effects and phase compositions of products with different transforming agents were compared, and the optimum conditions using (NH4)2CO3 as a transforming agent were determined. And then, the thermal degradation processes of both precursors lead carbonate and lead dioxide were investigated to prepare α-PbO, Pb3O4, and β-PbO products in argon and air atmospheres, respectively. Both the desulphurisation precursors and the calcination products were characterised by thermogravimetry and differential scanning calorimetry, X-ray diffraction, and scanning electron microscopy. The results showed that the lead oxide products were prepared, including α-PbO at 450°C in argon, Pb3O4 and β-PbO at 480°C and 620°C in air, respectively.

The flotation process of molybdenum ore from Liaoning in China with a new collector DMC is investigated. The results show that the collector DMC has stronger collecting power and better selectivity for molybdenite. Compared with traditional kerosene and xanthate flotation,this process using the new collector could have a good index with 60% sodium silicate. The closed-circuit test results are as follows:the molybdenum concentrate of 53.04% with the molybdenum recovery of 95.02% is obtained.
