    摘要: Compositions and methods used in the modification of crystallization of aluminum hydroxide from liquor in an aluminum hydroxide production process, such as the Bayer process. More particularly, crystal growth modifier compositions comprising a component of crude corn oil derived from a bioethanol production process and/or a component of biodiesel and methods of using such compositions to modify particle size and distribution of precipitated alumina trihydrate in a precipitation liquor crystallization process.

    摘要: Improved sparge compositions for froth flotation separation, methods of using them, and uses thereof are described. The compositions are suitably used in the froth flotation of particulate material containing ultrafine particles, and are well suited to the froth flotation separation of finely comminuted poor (low-grade) ores. The sparge compositions comprise functionalized silicone containing functionality that is tailored to the chemical nature of a beneficiary or a gangue in the ore. Sparging of the compositions effects improved recoveries and purities of beneficiaries. Sparge compositions and functionalized silicones suitable for the froth flotation of iron ores containing silica and/or silicate impurities are described. Sparge compositions and functionalized silicones suitable for the froth flotation of ores containing sulfur compounds such as sulfides are also disclosed.

    摘要: Improved sparge compositions for reverse froth flotation separation and uses thereof, and improved methods of reverse froth flotation are described. Described are sparge compositions comprising collectors and beneficiating agents, the collectors comprising sulfonated fatty acids and/or salts thereof, and the beneficiating agents comprising a hydroxy fatty acid composition. The sparge compositions are suitably used in the reverse froth flotation to separate phosphate beneficiary from ores comprising phosphate and dolomite, calcite, silicate, and/or other gangues. The disclosed compositions and methods exhibit improved separation of phosphate from such ores.
