Froth floatation is a method of beneficiation which relies on the differences between the surface chemistry of the country rock and the mineral being extracted, in this case graphite flake. In the cell the ore is mixed with water and "floatation agents".
Screening helps in separating the graphite flakes based on their size, which is essential for subsequent beneficiation steps. ... The field of graphite beneficiation is continuously evolving with ...
For commercial purpose the natural graphite is usually grouped into two forms (I) crystalline (flake type) graphite and (II) amorphous graphite. However, the main challenge lies in efficient beneficiation that is, to obtain maximum recovery of flake type graphite from lower grade graphite ore without damaging the flakes of graphite.
The initial purification process includes the process of crushing which releases the graphite flakes from the mineral parent rock. This helps improve the beneficiation efficiency. The size of the flakes and the carbon content of the sourced graphite are the most important factors in determining the final grade of the graphite.
As the high value and the scarcity of large-flake graphite ore resources, it is in the best interest to maximize the amount of large flakes and minimize any processing that will reduce flake sizes.
