摘要
Specific nature property of mineral composition in coal fly ash is the key factor to depress froth stability of unburned carbon flotation. This study intends to improve froth stability via the addition of inorganic salt cations. Three different inorganic salt cations (Na+, Mg2+, Fe3+) were added into both solutions with only frother and flotation pulp system with ash particles. The influence of inorganic salt cations on foam and froth stability was studied systematically. The results indicate that the addition of salt cations improves the stability of gas-liquid foam and gas-liquid-solid froth. The stabilization function of Fe3+ to the foam or froth is stronger than Mg2+ and Na+. Based on the above study, the flotation of coal fly ash from Hubei province of China was conducted. Compared with flotation system with no salt cations, the LOI of low carbon product could be reduced from 8.85% to 5.57% in the flotation system with 3 mmol/L Fe3+. The unburned carbon removal rate of low carbon product is improved from 41.94% to 74.55%. Compared with flotation system with Fe3+, the function of Mg2+ and Na+ to the floatation indexes is weakened in due order. ©, 2015, Meitan Xuebao/Journal of the China Coal Society.
