The invention discloses a method for extracting
copper fine powder by flotation of
copper-containing ore, which belongs to the technical field of
mineral processing, and comprises the following steps: after
copper-containing raw ore is crushed, ground and classified by a
cyclone, overflow enters flotation, and settled sand is returned for regrinding;
sodium carbonate is added into graded overflow to adjust the pH, a
sodium hexametaphosphate-
polyacrylamide composite dispersant is added, and
copper sulfate is added and stirred after low-temperature
microwave heating; gradient flotation is conducted, specifically,
copper sulfide is roughly selected, the pH is adjusted, an amino-
sulfonic acid group synergistic modified layered double
metal hydroxide /
cobalt ferrite composite collecting agent is added, and rough concentrate 1 is obtained through high-frequency pulse air inflation flotation;
copper oxide roughing is conducted, clear water is supplemented to adjust the pH, and a collecting agent is supplemented to obtain rough concentrate 2;
scavenging is performed for three times, a collecting agent is added for flotation, and concentrate returns to the previous stage; the rough concentrates are combined, and magnetic impurities are removed through high-gradient
magnetic separation to obtain magnetic concentrates; and carrying out microbiological leaching on
tailings to recover copper. The composite collecting agent is prepared through layered double
hydroxide carrier synthesis, amino modification,
sulfonic acid group
grafting and
cobalt ferrite anchoring.
