Environmental desulfurization of mine tailings using froth flotation
This research examined the the desulfurization of tailings from the Amaruq mine at a laboratory scale using froth flotation. Optimization of the flotation process was carried out by testing the conventional potassium amyl-xanthate collector (PAX) and three alternative collectors from the mercaptobenzothiazole (MBT) and dithiophosphate (DTP) …
