The invention provides a flotation
separation method for
molybdenite and bismuthite. The flotation
separation method comprises the following steps that an ore sample containing the
molybdenite and the bismuthite is sorted, crushed and ground to serve as a flotation sample; minerals and water are mixed to form ore pulp, and the pH value of the ore pulp is adjusted to a certain value; adding a certain amount of
oxidizing agent into the ore pulp and stirring; adding a certain amount of inhibitor into the ore pulp, and stirring; a certain amount of collecting agent is added into the ore pulp, and stirring treatment is conducted; adding a certain amount of
foaming agent into the ore pulp, and stirring; and S5, carrying out foam flotation on the ore pulp obtained in the step S5, respectively filtering,
drying and testing a foam product and a tank bottom product after flotation, and calculating the
recovery rate. The efficient and environment-friendly collecting agent and selective inhibitor are provided, efficient separation of
molybdenite and bismuthite can be achieved, the utilization efficiency of mineral resources is improved, the influence on the environment is further reduced, and
technical support is provided for
sustainable development of mines.
