[0044] Mineral beneficiation refers to the process of separating valuable minerals from gangue minerals by crushing and grinding the ore according to the physical and chemical properties of different minerals in the ore, and using methods such as gravity separation, flotation, magnetic separation, and electrostatic separation, and separating various symbiotic (associated) valuable minerals as much as possible, removing or reducing harmful impurities, in order to obtain raw materials required for smelting or other industries.

[0045] Flotation is a mineral processing method that uses the differences in the physical and chemical properties of mineral surfaces to float solid minerals from a suspension in water (slurry). Currently, the selection of flotation agents for minerals with different properties can only be determined through multiple experiments, resulting in a cumbersome and inefficient mineral processing process.

[0046] To address the aforementioned issues, this application provides a method for determining flotation agents for minerals. This method calculates the molecular characteristic coefficients of the target mineral to determine the suitable reagent properties for that mineral. Then, based on these reagent properties, the molecular structure of the flotation agent is determined, ultimately identifying the suitable flotation agent for the target mineral. This method eliminates the need for multiple experiments to determine the flotation agent for the target mineral, effectively reducing the number of operations in the mineral processing process and improving efficiency. It solves the problem of cumbersome and inefficient mineral processing due to the current requirement to determine flotation agents through experiments.

[0047] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 1This is a schematic diagram illustrating the implementation flow of a method for determining flotation agents for minerals provided in an embodiment of this application. The executing entity is a terminal device, which can be a mobile phone, wearable device (such as a smartwatch, smart bracelet, smart glasses, smart jewelry, etc.), tablet computer, in-vehicle device, augmented reality (AR) / virtual reality (VR) device, laptop computer, ultra-mobile personal computer (UMPC), netbook, personal digital assistant (PDA), and other electronic devices with network connectivity.

[0048] like Figure 1 As shown, the method for determining the flotation agent for the above-mentioned minerals may specifically include steps S11 to S14, as detailed below:

[0049] S11: Calculate the molecular characteristic coefficients of the target mineral.

[0050] In the embodiments of this application, different minerals have different molecular structures, and therefore their molecular characteristics are also different. Based on this, a flotation agent that can effectively float the mineral can be determined according to the characteristics of its molecular structure.

[0051] In the embodiments of this application, the molecular characteristic coefficients of the target mineral refer to parameters that can represent the characteristics of the molecular structure of the target mineral. For example, the electronic structure of the mineral surface (negativity of functional groups), the molecular orbital index of the mineral, etc.

[0052] In one embodiment of this application, the molecular characteristic coefficient of the target mineral is the molecular orbital index of the target mineral.

[0053] In practical applications, the molecular orbital index of the target mineral can be calculated using the molecular orbital method. The molecular orbital method is based on solving the Schrödinger equation, and the calculation model of the molecular orbital method can be expressed as follows:

[0054] HΨ = EΨ;

[0055] Where H is the Hamiltonian operator, Ψ is the molecular orbital wave function (Schrödinger equation), and E is the molecular orbital energy (i.e., the molecular orbital index to be calculated).

[0056] The calculation process of the molecular orbital method varies depending on the Schrödinger equation being solved. For details, please refer to the existing methods for solving molecular orbital indices. This application will not elaborate on these methods.

[0057] S12: Determine the properties of the reagent based on the molecular characteristic coefficients of the target mineral.

[0058] In practical applications, the above-mentioned reagent properties can be the adsorption properties of the flotation agent, the isotonic specific volume of the flotation agent, the polar group properties of the flotation agent, etc.

[0059] In practical applications, based on the principle of reaction matching, the appropriate reagent properties for the target mineral can be determined according to the molecular characteristic coefficients of the target mineral.

[0060] It should be noted that the reaction matching principle refers to the method of determining the reagent properties based on the matching degree between the molecular characteristic coefficients of the mineral and the reagent properties. Specifically, it can be that the reagent properties that meet the first matching condition are determined as the reagent properties corresponding to the molecular characteristic coefficients of the target mineral.

[0061] It should be noted that the first matching condition mentioned above can be set based on the actual application scenario. For example, the first matching condition can be the drug characteristic with the highest matching degree, or it can be the drug characteristic with a matching degree greater than the first preset matching threshold.

[0062] It should be noted that the first preset matching threshold mentioned above can be set according to actual needs, for example, it can be set to 85%.

[0063] In the embodiments of this application, the above-mentioned reagent characteristics are the polar base characteristics of the flotation agent.

[0064] Based on this, please refer to Figure 2 , Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram illustrating the implementation process of S12 in the method for determining the flotation agent for minerals provided in the embodiments of this application.

[0065] like Figure 2 As shown, in one embodiment of this application, the above-described S12 may include the following steps:

[0066] S121: Simulate the molecular orbital index of the polar group based on the molecular orbital index of the target mineral.

[0067] S122: Based on the principle of reaction matching, polar group characteristics that match the target mineral are screened from the molecular orbital indices of the polar groups obtained from simulation.

[0068] In practical applications, the polarity of flotation reagents is mainly determined by their valence bond factors. The most important of these is the bonded atom, whose properties determine the selectivity of the flotation reagent for minerals and the surface adsorption strength of different minerals.

[0069] Based on this, the above-mentioned reagent properties can be the molecular properties of the bonding atoms of the polar groups of the flotation agent, specifically the molecular orbital index of the bonding atoms of the polar groups of the flotation agent.

[0070] The reagent properties corresponding to the molecular characteristics of the target mineral are determined based on the reaction matching principle. Specifically, this can be done by determining the various possible molecular orbital indices of the polar groups of the simulated flotation agent based on the molecular orbital indices of the target mineral, and determining the molecular orbital indices of the flotation agent with the highest matching degree or the matching degree that meets the preset matching threshold as the reagent properties that match the target mineral.

[0071] S13: Construct a molecular structure having the properties of the pharmaceutical agent based on the properties of the pharmaceutical agent.

[0072] In the embodiments of this application, after the characteristics of the drug are determined, the molecular structure of the specific drug characteristic can be simulated and constructed based on the characteristics of the drug.

[0073] In practical applications, once the characteristics of a drug are determined, the terminal device can use simulation models and other tools to simulate and construct a molecular structure with those characteristics, specifically, a polar group structure with those characteristics.

[0074] S14: Determine the flotation agent for the target mineral based on the molecular structure.

[0075] In practical applications, different flotation agents have different molecular structures. By analyzing the molecular structure of the flotation agent, the molecular structure constructed by S13 is matched with the molecular structure of the flotation agent. Then, the flotation agent with a molecular structure that has a matching degree with the above molecular structure greater than the second preset matching threshold is determined as the flotation agent for the target mineral.

[0076] In one embodiment of this application, please refer to Figure 3 , Figure 3 This is a schematic diagram illustrating the implementation process of S14 in the method for determining the flotation agent for minerals provided in the embodiments of this application.

[0077] like Figure 3 As shown, in one embodiment of this application, the above-described S14 may include the following steps:

[0078] S141: Obtain the molecular structure of the flotation agent.

[0079] S142: Match the molecular structure of the flotation agent with the molecular structure having the properties of the reagent, and determine the flotation agent that meets the second matching condition as the flotation agent for the target mineral.

[0080] In practical applications, the molecular structures of different flotation agents can be obtained in advance, specifically the polar base structures of different flotation agents. Then, the polar base structures of all flotation agents are matched with the polar base structures with reagent properties determined in S13, and the flotation agents that meet the second matching conditions are determined as the flotation agents for the target mineral.

[0081] In practical applications, the second matching condition mentioned above can be to use the flotation agent with the highest matching degree as the flotation agent for the target mineral.

[0082] As can be seen from the above, the method for determining the flotation agent of a mineral provided in this embodiment determines the reagent characteristics suitable for the target mineral by calculating the molecular characteristic coefficient of the target mineral, and then determines the molecular structure of the flotation agent based on the reagent characteristics, and finally determines the flotation agent suitable for the target mineral. The flotation agent of the target mineral can be determined without multiple experiments, which effectively reduces the operation of the mineral beneficiation process, improves the beneficiation efficiency, and solves the problem that the current mineral beneficiation process is cumbersome and inefficient because it requires experimental determination of the flotation agent.

[0083] It should be understood that the sequence number of each step in the above embodiments does not imply the order of execution. The execution order of each process should be determined by its function and internal logic, and should not constitute any limitation on the implementation process of the embodiments of this application.
