The Effects of Various Flotation Parameters on Gold Recovery by Coal-Oil Assisted Gold Flotation

The effects of different physical parameters such as pulp density, aeration conditions, and impeller speed on the performance of coal-oil assisted gold flotation were investigated in this study. The experiments were conducted using samples taken from an epithermal gold ore deposit. The results demonstrated that increasing the solid concentration in feed pulp slightly improves recovery of gold particles, but accompanied by significant decreases in concentrate grade. At low aeration conditions gold recovery was relatively low whereas at high aeration conditions the selectivity was poor. The use of higher level of agitation in the agglomerate re-formation stage brought about an increase in gold recovery; however, gold grade of the concentrates tended to decline. Gold grade of the concentrate was significantly increased by reloading of the coal oil agglomerates; on the other hand, substantial decreases were observed in total gold recovery after each successive cycle.     

Influence of Hydrophobicity on Agglomeration of Dolomite in Cationic-Anionic Surfactant System

In this study the modified procedure of the oil agglomeration process was carried out, where the emulsion of dodecylammonium hydrochloride (DDAHCl) solution and kerosene was added to the mineral suspension. The aim of this work was to research the oil agglomeration of dolomite mineral by the contact angle, zeta potential and surface free energy measurements. The relationship between the investigated parameters and the oil agglomeration as well as shear flocculation was revealed. The mechanism of oil agglomeration of hydrophilic particles in cationic-anionic surfactant system has been proposed. It was concluded that oil droplets interact rather with aggregates of particles modified by anionic surfactant than the single mineral particles as was explained for naturally hydrophobic particles.     

Flotation of Fine Gold Particles by the Assistance of Coal-Oil Agglomerates

This paper describes the use of coal-oil agglomerates in flotation to increase the gold recovery from an ore containing fine gold particles. The effects of operating parameters on gold flotation recovery such as oil type, particle size of agglomerating material, agglomerate/ore and oil/ore ratios were investigated. The studies showed that petroleum oils are more effective than vegetable oils in oil agglomeration of Kozlu coal and coal-oil assisted gold flotation. Gold recovery can be increased using a higher amount of agglomerates in the process; however, gold grade of the flotation concentrates is reduced significantly. The use of bridging oil at high concentrations in the agglomeration process provides high-grade gold concentrates, but lower recoveries. The utilization of coarser coal particles in the coal-oil agglomeration stage leads to higher selectivity and recovery values for gold particles.     

Agglomeration and relocation: Manufacturing plant relocation in Korea

This study investigates the magnitude of localization economies by analysing the relocation pattern of Korean establishments in the manufacturing sector. Relocation of establishments is identified by their move across the border of wards, counties, or cities and distinguished between beyond and within their workers' commuting distance. It seems that relocation beyond commuting distance costs more than that within commuting distance since the former includes additional costs related with searching for, hiring, and training new workers. Key findings of this paper show that external benefits from agglomeration are large enough to be recognized by manufacturers through relocation beyond the border of their workers' commuting area. When the own industry's share of employment in all manufacturing industries becomes doubled through relocation, the probability for establishments to relocate over a long distance across the boundary of their workers' commuting area rises by 17 per cent. The results for sub‐samples divided by the age of establishments show that older establishments are more likely to relocate over a long distance to an area with disproportionate presence of establishments in the same industry. These results seem to fit product life cycle theory by Duranton and Puga. As the production process of the product becomes standardized, the firms producing that product tend to relocate to the specialized area where they can reduce the production costs by increasing dependence on the existing intermediate input suppliers, who are more likely to appear in a more specialized area.

Supported gold clusters and cluster-based nanomaterials: characterization, stability and growth studies by in situ GISAXS under vacuum conditions and in the presence of hydrogen

This contribution is devoted to study of the thermal stability and growth of gold nanoparticles supported on SiO₂/Si(111) and Al₂O₃/SiO₂/Si(111) as a function of initial cluster size, support material and level of surface coverage. Experimental evidence for “flipping” of two dimensional cluster structures from vertical orientation to horizontal on the support is presented.
