Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to a stirring tank, in particular to a high-efficiency flotation spray defoaming agent mixing stirring tank. Background Art
[0002] Before flotation operation, a slurry stirring tank is usually set up and foaming agents and collecting agents are added. Due to the increase in stirring intensity, the drugs in the stirring tank are fully mixed to produce a large amount of dense and extremely tough foam, which is continuously enriched and overflowed in large quantities, seriously affecting the efficiency of the mineral processing operation, resulting in the loss of valuable metals and having a great impact on the environmental sanitation on site.
[0003] Normally, in order to avoid overflow caused by excessively dense foam in the agitator tank, the following two methods are used for defoaming: 1. Add high-pressure defoaming water above the agitator tank for defoaming. Although this method has a certain inhibitory effect on the foam, it cannot solve the problem fundamentally. At the same time, a large amount of clean water enters the flotation system, resulting in a decrease in the pulp concentration, which brings great difficulties to the control of flotation process indicators and the recovery of valuable metals; 2. Add defoaming agent in the agitator tank to suppress foam. Although this method solves the problem at the front end, it cannot effectively generate foam when foaming is required for subsequent mineral processing operations, which also has a great impact on the control of mineral processing process indicators.
[0004] Therefore, it is particularly important to adopt a scientific and effective physical method to ensure that the drugs are fully mixed without causing any impact on subsequent mineral processing operations. After continuous exploration, experimentation, and summary, the problem was finally completely solved by allowing the slurry to achieve self-circulation in the stirring tank. Utility Model Content
