Concentrate Dewatering & Thickening
Table of ContentsFlotation Concentrate Thickeners The concentrate from the flotation section usually contains only 20 to 30% of solids as it leaves the cleaning machine and must be dewatered before being sent to the next department. The operation of dewatering is performed in two stages. First, the bulk of the water is removed in a thickener, from which the concentrate

Power Required for Pumping Water
In Pumping Water, the power required to raise a given quantity of water to any height up to 100 ft. can be calculated from this Table, which assumes the use of a double inlet centrifugal pump of good design working well up to its full capacity and reasonably near to its most efficient speed. To calculate the total power consumption

Flotation Circuits Diagrams
Table of ContentsFlotation Circuits for Mechanically Agitated CellsFlotation Circuits for Air-Lift and Pneumatic CellsFlotation Section Arrangement Since several types of flotation circuits can generally be employed in conjunction with the various processes for the flotation of different classes of minerals, an outline of the standard circuits in common use is best given before the processes to which they are applicable are described. The
Silver Gold Recovery Flotation Process
The ores from which silver and gold are recoverable by flotation divide themselves naturally into two general processing classes: ores in which the valuable minerals are those of the base metals, the precious metals being incidental constituents, and ores in which the gold and silver are of primary importance, the base-metal minerals, if present, being of little or no value.
Compare Flotation Machines Types
In the 1950s, the opinion was often expressed that the mechanically-agitated machine forms the best rougher and a pneumatic machine the best cleaner, the reason being that the former type has come to be regarded as one that yields a heavily-mineralized froth, which, though giving a good recovery of the minerals, is likely to be of low grade because of
Flotation Conditioning
Flotation Conditioning is often necessary as it is not sufficient merely to make the addition of the various reagents to the pulp and then to proceed with flotation. Intimate admixture is essential in order not only to bring about their even dissemination throughout the pulp but also to ensure that the millions of particles of varying nature shall each receive

Bowl Classifiers
The bowl classifier incorporates a two-stage baffled-return separating action, and it consists of a straight classifier with the usual reciprocating rakes, upon which is superimposed at the lower end a shallow circular bowl with a revolving rake mechanism. The general construction of the Dorr Bowl Classifier is shown in Fig. 20. The feed enters at the centre of the bowl,
