Abstract:

Flotation machine is the most important and core equipment in the foam flotation method,which has become one of the most important sorting methods in the world for raw mineral materials separation.With many different kinds and specifications,flotation machines are used in different fields.We introduce two types of flotation machines and their effect in the flotation separation process of lead and zinc.The results show that different types of flotation machine having different effect in lead and zinc flotation separation,and A-type flotation machine has more stable separation index,less flotation reagent consumption and better producing,by comparing the separation index and the flotation reagent consumption of A-type and XCF/KYF-type flotation machines in lead and zinc flotation separation.

Key words: A-type flotation machine, XCF/KYF-type flotation machine, Lead-zinc separation, Flotation technology
