Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the field of potassium salt processing, and in particular relates to a potassium mixed salt ore fine mud inhibitor and an application thereof. The invention also relates to a flotation method of kainite or kainite in a potassium mixed salt ore containing fine mud by applying the potassium mixed salt ore fine mud inhibitor. Background Art

[0002] As an important potassium resource, the development and utilization of potassium mixed salt mines is of great significance to agriculture, chemical industry and other fields. However, in the mining and processing of potassium mixed salt mines, the generation of fine mud is a common problem. Fine mud not only affects the purity and quality of the product, but also increases production costs and reduces production efficiency. Therefore, it is particularly important to develop an efficient and environmentally friendly potassium mixed salt mine fine mud inhibitor.

[0003] 1. Characteristics and Challenges of Potash Mixed Salt Mines ‌Complexity of composition‌: Potassium mixed salt ores usually contain a variety of ion components, such as K + 、Na + Mg 2+ and Cl - 、SO4 2- Etc. This complexity makes it easy to produce fine mud during its processing and utilization.

[0004] ‌Fine mud problem‌: During the mining and processing of potassium mixed salt ore, the generation of fine mud is a common problem. These fine muds not only affect the purity and quality of the product, but also increase production costs and reduce production efficiency. The existing technology (such as patent CN 102515881 B) uses physical screening to desludging and relies on a single inhibitor such as polyacrylamide, which has the problems of complex process, high energy consumption, and low fine mud inhibition efficiency (only 60-70%).

[0005] Limitations of traditional methods: Traditional physical or chemical methods often have problems such as poor results, complicated processes, high costs or environmental pollution when dealing with fine mud problems.

[0006] 2. Research and development needs of fine mud inhibitors ‌Improve separation efficiency‌: The main function of fine mud inhibitor is to improve the separation efficiency between minerals and fine mud, reduce the content of fine mud in the product, and thus improve the purity and quality of the product.

[0007] ‌Reduce production costs‌: By developing effective fine mud inhibitors, the additional costs caused by fine mud problems in the production process, such as the costs of washing, filtration, etc., can be reduced.

[0008] ‌Environmental protection requirements‌: With the improvement of environmental awareness, higher requirements are placed on the environmental protection of fine sludge inhibitors. An ideal fine sludge inhibitor should be able to reduce the impact on the environment while meeting the separation effect.

[0009] 3. Deficiencies of Existing Technologies Unstable effect: Some existing fine mud inhibitors are unstable in actual application and are easily affected by factors such as mineral composition, temperature, and pH value.

[0010] ‌High cost‌: Although some highly efficient fine mud inhibitors can meet the requirements of separation effect, their high cost is not conducive to large-scale promotion and application.

[0011] Poor environmental protection: Some fine mud inhibitors may produce harmful substances during use and cause environmental pollution. Summary of the invention
