AI Technical Summary
Existing technologies are insufficient to effectively separate copper and molybdenum using single agents such as aluminum, sodium sulfide, and activated carbon. Furthermore, existing technologies suffer from low copper-molybdenum separation efficiency, low resource utilization, and significant separation challenges, all of which hinder efficient resource utilization.
A combined de-chemical agent, consisting of sodium sulfide, sodium hydrosulfide, calcium sulfide, and activated carbon particles, is used to improve the separation efficiency of copper and molybdenum through multiple flotation steps, including roughing, cleaning, and scavenging. Sodium sulfide and kerosene are used for multiple precise blending processes.
This method enables efficient separation and flotation of copper and molybdenum ores, improves molybdenum grade and recovery rate, reduces copper and molybdenum resource loss and reagent consumption, and lowers beneficiation costs.

Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of mineral processing technology, specifically relating to a combined de-chemical agent and its application. Background Technology
[0002] Copper and molybdenum, as strategically important non-ferrous metal resources, are shining gems in the constellation of modern industry. They are not only the solid foundation for technological development but also the invisible wings of national defense and economic prosperity. my country possesses vast copper and molybdenum reserves, ranking among the world's largest. However, the current situation facing these resources includes complex occurrence states, low utilization rates of low-grade associated copper and molybdenum resources, and difficulties in recovering valuable minerals, severely impacting their efficient utilization. For copper-molybdenum separation, de-removal is crucial. De-removal methods before separation mainly include scrubbing, thickening, regrinding, and reagent addition. Typically, sodium sulfide or activated carbon are used for de-removal before separation. However, using only activated carbon or sodium sulfide for de-removal before separation does not yield ideal results for copper and molybdenum indicators. Therefore, research on de-removal reagents is of great significance for further in-depth research on key technologies for efficient copper-molybdenum resource recovery and the development of more advantageous new de-removal reagents before copper-molybdenum separation, thus improving the copper-molybdenum metal industry. Therefore, in order to improve the flotation efficiency of copper-molybdenum separation, it is urgent to develop a new type of highly efficient de-removing agent before copper-molybdenum separation, so as to achieve efficient separation and recovery of copper-molybdenum ore. Summary of the Invention
[0003] The first objective of this invention is to provide a combined de-drug agent; the second objective is to provide the application of the combined de-drug agent.
[0004] The first objective of this invention is achieved by the combination desiccant consisting of sodium sulfide, sodium hydrosulfide, calcium sulfide, and activated carbon particles.
[0005] The second objective of this invention is achieved through the application of the combined desiccant in the copper-molybdenum separation flotation process, specifically as follows: (1) A copper-molybdenum mixed concentrate has a slurry concentration of 45%, a Cu grade of 17%, and a Mo grade of 0.6%. First, a combined descaling agent is added to the stirring tank, and then the mixture is sieved through a 20-mesh sieve. The sieve is then subjected to flotation tests, and the slurry is adjusted to a slurry mass percentage concentration of 40%.
[0006] (2) Add 20 kg / t of sodium sulfide and 120 g / t of kerosene to the slurry under the screen in step (1) in sequence, and carry out one roughing operation to obtain copper-molybdenum separation roughing concentrate and copper-molybdenum separation roughing tailings; (3) Add 10 kg / t of sodium sulfide and 40 g / t of kerosene to the copper-molybdenum separation rough concentrate in step (2) and carry out a series of beneficiation I operations to obtain copper-molybdenum separation beneficiation I concentrate and copper-molybdenum separation beneficiation I tailings; (4) Add 5 kg / t of sodium sulfide and 20 g / t of kerosene to the copper-molybdenum separation and beneficiation I concentrate in step (3) and carry out a series of beneficiation II operations to obtain copper-molybdenum separation II concentrate and copper-molybdenum separation and beneficiation II tailings; (5) Add 4 kg / t of sodium sulfide and 10 g / t of kerosene to the copper-molybdenum separation and beneficiation II concentrate in step (4) and carry out a series of beneficiation III operations to obtain copper-molybdenum separation III concentrate and copper-molybdenum separation and beneficiation III tailings. (6) Add 2 kg / t of sodium sulfide and 0 g / t of kerosene to the copper-molybdenum separation and beneficiation III concentrate in step (5) and carry out a series of beneficiation IV operations to obtain copper-molybdenum separation IV concentrate and copper-molybdenum separation and beneficiation IV tailings. (7) Add 0 kg / t of sodium sulfide and 0 g / t of kerosene to the copper-molybdenum separation and beneficiation IV concentrate in step (6) and carry out a series of beneficiation V operations to obtain copper-molybdenum separation V concentrate and copper-molybdenum separation and beneficiation V tailings; (8) Add 10 kg / t of sodium sulfide and 100 g / t of kerosene to the copper-molybdenum separation roughing tailings in step (2) and carry out a series of scavenging operations I to obtain copper-molybdenum separation middlings 5 and copper-molybdenum separation scavenging I tailings. (9) Add 6 kg / t of sodium sulfide and 50 g / t of kerosene to the tailings of the copper-molybdenum separation scavenging I step (8) and carry out a series of scavenging II operations to obtain copper-molybdenum separation middlings 6 and copper-molybdenum separation tailings.
[0007] The advantages and beneficial effects of this invention are as follows: 1. The combined de-removal agent of the present invention achieves efficient separation and flotation of copper-molybdenum ore, effectively solves the problem of the influence of reagents in the copper-molybdenum mixed flotation stage on the downstream copper-molybdenum separation, and reduces the loss of copper and molybdenum resources.
[0008] 2. This invention uses a combination of de-chemical agents, which enhances the effect of copper-molybdenum separation agents on copper-molybdenum separation, reduces the amount of copper-molybdenum separation agents used, and lowers the separation cost.
[0009] 3. In addition, compared with the untreated group, under the same reagent dosage, the use of this group of descaling agents can increase the molybdenum grade by 4 to 6 percentage points and the molybdenum recovery rate by more than 6 to 8%. Attached Figure Description
