Flotation of sylvite with dodecylamine and the effect of added long chain alcohols

In the potash production industry, sylvite is selectively floated from halite with the use of cationic collectors. Due to the high solubility of the KCl and NaCl minerals, the process has to be conducted in saturated brines of these salts and at very high collector concentration. The understanding of the mechanisms involved in this peculiar selective flotation process has progressed well in the recent years and is briefly discussed herein.Studies of the effect of the addition of long chain alcohols on the dodecylamine adsorption and flotation of KCl were undertaken and the results are presented. Potassium chloride flotation with dodecylamine was enhanced by the addition of hexyl and octyl alcohol with the best results in the concentration range of from 6 to 8 × 10⁻³ M. Decyl alcohol had a less effective influence on KCl floatability. The surface tension of dodecylamine solution as a function of KCl concentration and the lowering of the amine critical micelle concentration in KCl saturated solution were also studied and the role of the long chain alcohol addition on the flotation recovery of potassium chloride with dodecylamine is discussed.     

Mechanics of thin ultra-light stainless steel sandwich sheet material: Part I. Stiffness

Three variants of a novel steel sandwich sheet material have been studied. The geometrical arrangements of the steel fibres in the core have been characterised. Certain mechanical properties of the fibres have also been investigated. The beam stiffnesses of the sheets, and also their through-thickness Young’s moduli, have been measured. These results have been compared with model predictions. It is shown that the beam stiffnesses are in all cases significantly lower than expected from simple bending theory. This is attributed to the low through-thickness stiffness of the core and also to a low resistance to shear. Modelling of these properties has facilitated the identification of changes to the core structure, which should lead to improved beam stiffness, while retaining a low density. Increased fibre diameter, and possibly an alteration to the fibre sectional shape, are the most promising changes. Of course, implications for other properties, and for ease of manufacture, will also need to be borne in mind.

Flotation bubble image segmentation based on seed region boundary growing

Segmenting blurred and conglutinated bubbles in a flotation image is done using a new segmentation method based on Seed Region and Boundary Growing (SRBG). Bright pixels located on bubble tops were extracted as the seed regions. Seed boundaries are divided into four curves: left-top, right-top, rightbottom, and left-bottom. Bubbles are segmented from the seed boundary by moving these curves to the bubble boundaries along the corresponding directions. The SRBG method can remove noisy areas and it avoids over- and under-segmentation problems. Each bubble is segmented separately rather than segmenting the entire flotation image. The segmentation results from the SRBG method are more accurate than those from the Watershed algorithm.
