This high-phosphorus hematite flotation wastewater (HHFW) is a heavily polluted wastewater, which is characterized by high concentration suspended solid (SS) and organic pollutant, high alkalinity and strong color. Traditionally, gravity separation is applied to treat the HHFW, and the clarified water is pumped back to the flotation cell for reuse.
Its principle is to grind the hematite ore into a slurry by adding water to the flotation machine, and then stir and aerate to produce a large number of dispersed bubbles. Part of the floatable minerals adheres to the bubbles and float to the surface of the pulp to form (concentrate), while the non-floating gangue (tailings) stays in the ...
