Laboratory Flasks/Erlenmeyer/Pyrex Glass
FIXANAL, Standardized Solution Apparatus—A method of preparing correctly standardized solutions for volumetric analysis without titration. The method depends on the use of sealed capsules containing the proper amount of accurately standardized reagent to make up 1000 ml. and an apparatus for releasing the contents into a standard 1000 ml. volumetric flask. To prepare a solution, for example, of 0.1 N-sodium
pH Ranges for Sequential Cu Pb Zn Flotation | Separation
To understand froth flotation, first read that article and come back to read about sequential flotation of Copper, Lead and Zinc. Given a baseline amount of frother and collector, these curves are the approximate/relative rate of flotation recovery of Copper (Chalcopyrite/Bornite/Chalcocite/Covellite/Tennantite/Enargite/Tetrahedrite /Freibergite ), Lead (Galena) and Zinc (Sphalerite) as well as iron (pyrite/arsenopyrite) minerals VS pH. With a slurry’s natural
Cyanide Antidote Kit

Effect of Collector and pH on Pyrite Fe Selectivity Flotation/Depression
The curves below show how pH 5.5-6.5 is where conditions are optimum for iron depression. Shown on the previous chart but not these curves is this same pH 5.5-6.5 is also the optimum for Pb depression. Note on the graph how iron recovery increases as collector dosage increases. Even at optimum pH 6, over dosage of collector will negate flotation
