ANALYSIS OF THE USE OF LOCAL REAGENTS IN THE FLOTATION OF COPPER-MOLIBDENIC ORES
Article Sidebar
Main Article Content
Abstract
The article examines the principles of flotation of copper-molybdenum ores, the role of the main groups of reagents, and the possibilities of using “local” (locally available, import-substituting, or derived from secondary raw material flows) reagents. The advantages and limitations of such reagents, methods for evaluating their effectiveness (microflotation, plate flotation, analytical methods), economic and environmental aspects, and practical recommendations for implementation in processing plants are discussed. The main focus is on ensuring selectivity in the separation of chalcopyrite and molybdenite, reducing costs and minimizing environmental impact.
