PendingCN122164562AFlotationChlorosulfuric acidWater methanol
This invention relates to the field of mineral processing technology, specifically to an environmentally friendly copper-molybdenum separation inhibitor, its preparation method, and its application. The method includes: mixing starch and formamide, stirring at room temperature, cooling in an ice-water bath at -5°C, slowly adding chlorosulfonic acid at this temperature to initiate a sulfonation reaction, neutralizing to pH 7-8 with sodium hydroxide solution after the reaction, adding anhydrous methanol to precipitate the product, and washing and drying to obtain the sulfonated anionic starch polymer DGSS. The inhibitor is applied to the flotation separation of copper-molybdenum mixed concentrates, combined with a closed-circuit process of one roughing, one scavenging, and four cleaning stages, employing a gradient reagent reduction and staged kerosene replenishment system from roughing to cleaning. This allows for selective inhibition of copper sulfide minerals such as chalcopyrite at extremely low dosages, with minimal impact on the floatability of molybdenite. It completely avoids the use of toxic substances such as cyanide, Knox reagent, or sodium sulfide, exhibiting good selectivity, low reagent consumption, environmental friendliness, and a simple preparation process that is easy to industrialize.
