Froth flotation of scheelite has regained new focus since the 2010s and research regarding floatability and reagents has made great progress over the years. The main objective was and remains the selective flotation of scheelite from other calcium-bearing minerals, in particular calcite, fluorite and apatite.

In the attempt to process lower-grade ores, mineral flotation has taken centre stage as the preferred recovery route. However, in many instances, the froth product does not have a high grade due to the entrainment of gangue minerals. Industry has solved this challenge by introducing froth washing mechanisms. Clean wash water is …

In the new preparation process, a high-pressure water-jet mill was used to grind the coal, and then froth flotation was used to obtain ultra-clean fine coal particles [21–23]. UCSFCOS samples with 45%, 50% and 55% solid content by weight were prepared by comminution of the fine coal–oil slurries in a high-pressure slurry jet mill [18,25].

The froth zone, collection zone, and scavenger cyclone zone are the three zones that form in the flotation column, as shown in Figure 1. When water (a diluent) is added, froth with hydrophobic pure graphite particles forms at the top of the column [ 45 ]. The froth selectivity increases with the froth height.
