Problems solved by technology

However, the extensive use of lime can easily lead to a series of problems: the flotation foam is sticky, the entrainment of impurities is large, and the quality of the concentrate is poor; Recycling of precious metals such as gold and silver; sulfur selection is difficult, and after pyrite is suppressed by lime, it usually needs to be activated by adding a large amount of acid before recycling; lime is easy to scale, consolidate, and block pipelines, which is not conducive to production operations and indicators Stablize
Oxidation-reduction agents are less toxic, and the wastewater is easy to treat, but the inhibition ability of the oxidation-reduction agents is weak. When adjusting the potential, the dosage is large, and the potential of the pulp is unstable, and the production operation is complicated.

Abstract

The invention discloses a flotation separation inhibitor and separation method of galena, pyrite and sphalerite, and belongs to the technical field of mineral processing. The method includes adopting raw ores of sulfide lead-zinc mine as raw material, and adding SDSN (dimethyl dithiocarbamate : 2-(methylthio)ethylamine = 1-3:1)to serve as inhibitor of the pyrite and the sphalerite so as to perform lead and zinc sulphur flotation separation after the raw ores are grinded. Compared with an existing lead and zinc sulphur separation technology, the composite inhibitor SDSN has the advantages that selectivities of the pyrite and the sphalerite are high, inhibiting capability is high, usage is fewer, and adding is facilitated. The the pyrite and the sphalerite can be inhibited well, efficient separation of the galena and the zinc sulphur is implemented, the problems that according to the traditional lime or cyanide method, the recovery rate of associated gold, silver and other precious metals in the lead-zinc sulfide mine is low and ecological environment is seriously damaged are overcome, and an efficient and environment-friendly flotation separation method is provided for complex sulfide lead-zinc mine separation.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of mineral processing, in particular to a flotation separation method for lead-zinc sulfide ore. Background technique [0002] The inhibitors of pyrite in the lead-zinc-sulfur separation flotation process at home and abroad mainly include the following categories: lime, cyanide, redox agents, organic inhibitors, microbial inhibitors, etc. Lime is the most widely used inhibitor in the separation flotation of lead, zinc and sulfur. Lime exists in the form of OH- ions and Ca2+ ions in the slurry system. Pyrite is inhibited by forming a hydrophilic film on the mineral surface, competing with xanthate anions, and desorbing xanthate anions adsorbed on the mineral surface. However, the extensive use of lime can easily lead to a series of problems: the flotation foam is sticky, the entrainment of impurities is large, and the quality of the concentrate is poor; Recycling of precious metals such as gold and silver;...
