Electrochemical techniques are very useful tools for characterizing the surface properties of
natural minerals involved in electrochemical reactions. This work reviews the recent …

Chalcopyrite and galena are primary raw materials for producing Cu and Pb metals,
respectively. Flotation is still the main method to recover these two minerals. So far, lots of …

Complex sulfide ores are typically mixtures of various sulfide minerals like sphalerite (ZnS),
chalcopyrite (CuFeS 2), galena (PbS), pyrite (FeS 2), and barite (BaSO 4) and processed by …

In this research, to achieve green effective separation of chalcopyrite and galena, a novel
synthetic depressant, dithiocarbamated poly (acrylamide-allyamine)(DTC-PAA), was …

Recently, the copper industry is facing a challenge in dealing with low-grade copper ores
and the flotation performance deteriorates when a copper ore with an elevated pyrite …

The oxidation of pyrite under acidic conditions, an important process leading to the formation
of acid mine drainage, has been the subject of intense research yet remains incompletely …

Moderate oxidation is beneficial to the flotation of sulfide ores, but the exact dissolved
oxygen (DO) concentration suitable for flotation is still unclear. In this work, a self–made …

The oxidation of pyrite has attracted significant attention due to its predominant contribution
to the serious environmental issue of acid mine drainage (AMD). However, relatively few …

Dissolved air flotation (DAF) is broadly applied in wastewater treatment, especially for the
recovery of organic pollution with low concentration. However, the mechanism of interaction …

Iron (Fe) pollution is an imporant environmental issue in the internal spaces of abandoned
coal mines, posing a severe threat to human health and the ecosystem. The primary sources …
