Metallurgical Performance Improvement in Froth Flotation | domain.com

Complex industrial mineral ores, from which many valuable minerals can be recovered while rejecting multiple gangues, create the greatest metallurgical performance challenge for today’s metallurgists. The ability to process and float comingled minerals from the same ore body is becoming more prevalent and economical.

Deposits that were economically unfeasible years ago are now coming into production due to advances in froth flotation, reagent formulation, ore sizing, flotation equipment design, and flowsheet design, which all must work together to process the most troublesome of ores effectively.

Arkema’s metallurgists, in state-of-the-art flotation laboratories across the globe, routinely work with industrial mineral producers to improve metallurgical performance during the froth flotation process. Our product ranges include CustoFloat^® and CustoFroth^®. Our application expertise and metallurgical performance testing capabilities enable us to develop the best mineral processing solution for each industrial mineral type, design the optimal application system, monitor product performance, and adjust flotation reagent formulations as needed over time. We perform comprehensive lab and plant froth flotation and reagent testing to optimize metallurgical performance and ensure a successful outcome for every project.
