[0001] This invention relates to the field of flotation technology for the concentrate stage of scheelite, specifically a flotation recovery method for fine-grained scheelite concentrate stage. Background Technology
[0002] Tungsten is one of the 24 strategic minerals in my country and is widely used in electronic communications, medicine and health, functional materials, aerospace, and national defense. my country is rich in tungsten resources, with reserves and production ranking among the top in the world. In recent years, with the deepening of tungsten mining, low-grade scheelite (WO3 grade less than 0.10%) has gradually become the main target of tungsten resource development and utilization in my country. Improving the beneficiation efficiency of low-grade scheelite resources is of great significance to consolidating my country's advantageous position in tungsten resources. In view of the characteristics of fine-grained minerals, some new flotation processes have been gradually applied to the flotation research and industrial practice of fine-grained minerals. Currently, the main processes include selective flocculation flotation, shear flocculation flotation [2], carrier flotation and oil agglomeration flotation [3-4].
[0003] The existing CN208583480U describes a slurry distribution device for a flotation column. The slurry is installed above the flotation column. The slurry is pumped by a slurry pump and enters through the middle of the slurry tank. Inside the tank, the slurry is guided by a distributor into the slurry pipe. The outlet pipe and the slurry pipe elbow, as well as the elbow and the slurry pipe itself, are connected by flanges. Maintenance only requires removing the bolts on the flanges. If the slurry pipe becomes clogged, it is replaced with a new one. The entire process only requires removing and installing bolts, thus significantly improving maintenance efficiency. However, the existing equipment has shortcomings: poor reagent addition, inflexibility, poor stirring efficiency, inability to clean the stirring mechanism, poor discharge effect, and inconvenience. Therefore, a flotation recovery method for fine-grained scheelite is needed to solve these problems. Summary of the Invention

[0042] S1: First, the raw ore slurry from the fine ore workshop is introduced through the slurry inlet pipe 2 and the feed inlet 4.
[0043] S2: Next, heat the slurry to 95°C using the stirring block 9.
[0044] S3: Then, the de-agent is heated and de-agented for 30 minutes through the reagent tank 6, suction pump 18 and inlet pipe 19, and then clean water is added to adjust the slurry concentration to about 25%.

[0046] S5: Then, under the condition of a de-chemical agent dosage of 45 kg / t, the effects of diesel engine oil and turbine oil on the selection indicators were investigated respectively. Compared with no oil added, adding 100 g / t diesel engine oil increased the WO3 recovery rate by 11.87% and the WO3 grade by 3.15%, while adding 100 g / t turbine oil increased the WO3 recovery rate by 7.65% and the WO3 grade by 1.93%.
[0047] S6: Next, under the condition of a de-chemical agent dosage of 45 kg / t, the effect of diesel engine oil dosage on the selection index was investigated. As the diesel engine oil dosage increased, the WO3 recovery rate and grade gradually increased. When the diesel engine oil dosage exceeded 100 g / t, the WO3 recovery rate and grade decreased. Therefore, the appropriate diesel engine oil dosage was determined to be 100 g / t, at which point the WO3 recovery rate was 83.05% and the WO3 grade was 18.69%.
[0048] S7: Then, a closed-circuit test of the entire process of the fine section was carried out under the conditions of no engine oil and 100g / t diesel engine oil respectively.
