The application discloses an efficient flotation method for oxidized
coal slime and belongs to the technical field of
coal washing and
processing. A composite collecting agent is prepared from
polyethylene glycol octylphenyl
ether and diesel oil, and
fatty acid methyl ester is added as a synergistic agent; the
mass fraction of the
polyethylene glycol octylphenyl
ether in the composite collecting agent is 6-10 parts, the
mass fraction of the diesel oil is 0-4 parts, the adding amount of the composite collecting agent in the
coal sample is 200-1200 g / t, and the adding amount of the
fatty acid methyl ester is 20-100 g / t. Through the synergistic effect between the composite collecting agent and the synergistic agent, the hydrophobicity of the surface of the oxidized coal is significantly enhanced, the adsorption amount and the uniformity of the collecting agent on the surface of the coal particles are improved, the problem of low flotation efficiency caused by the high hydrophilicity of the surface due to the high content of
oxygen-containing functional groups is effectively overcome, the
reagent system constructed by the application has the characteristics of simple formula, wide source, non-irritating
odor, environmental friendliness and easy implementation, the
clean coal yield can be further improved, the ash content can be effectively controlled, and the application has significant industrial application value.
