Comparative Study on the Effect of Pyrophosphate and Tripolyphosphate on the Flotation Separation of Arsenopyrite and Muscovite

The aim of the study was to compare the effects and mechanism of tetrasodium pyrophosphate (TSPP) and sodium tripolyphosphate (STPP) as dispersants on the selective flotation of arsenopyrite from muscovite. The results of single-mineral flotation showed that the recovery of arsenopyrite was 81.4% wh...

Zusammenfassung:The aim of the study was to compare the effects and mechanism of tetrasodium pyrophosphate (TSPP) and sodium tripolyphosphate (STPP) as dispersants on the selective flotation of arsenopyrite from muscovite. The results of single-mineral flotation showed that the recovery of arsenopyrite was 81.4% when no dispersant was added. The recovery of arsenopyrite slightly decreased with increasing dosage of TSPP. When the dosage of STPP was 6 × 10−5 mol/L, the recovery of arsenopyrite was only 28.6%. Neither of the dispersants had significant influence on the muscovite flotation (
