Role of Mixing Energy in the Flocculation of Mature Fine Tailings

High-molecular-weight polymer flocculants are used for accelerated dewatering of mature fine tailings (MFTs) to reclaim the land occupied by containment ponds. Two anionic polymers were used to flocculate an MFT sample containing 98% by weight of fines smaller than 44 μm in diameter, with 85% of thi...
