Forth flotation process: ore dressing
Concentration Beneficiation by Forth flotation
This method is used for the concentration of sulphide ores which are lighter than the impurities. The powdered ore is added to water containing pine oil (frothing agent) and sodium ethyl xanthate (collecting agent). The mixture is strongly agitated by passing compressed air. The sulphide particles stick to the oil droplets forming a forth which rises to the surface. The heavier gangue particles settle to the bottom of the vessel. The forth is skimmed off and heated to separate the oil and the sulphide.
