Anionic Flocculants For Mining Process

SINOFLOC anionic polyacrylamide flocculants, widely used in mining operations, is suitable for using as a settlement and centrifugation aid in many different mineral processing applications and is particularly effective under very low PH conditions, as encountered in acidic leach operations.

Washing and Flotation the Clays from Ore

SINOFLOC anionic polymer could be used for separation the water from clays and water recycling, dewatering the sludge through centrifuging, filtration and thickening and separating the water from the suspended solution through settling. This is an important use of flocculants in mining.

Metal Concentration

SINOFLOC polymers could be used as a flocculant in centrifugation process to get impurities precipitated and get the metal or metalloid recovered.

SINOFLOC anionic polyacrylamide flocculant could be applied in following mining industries:

• Coal
• Copper
• Alumina
• Gold
• Silver
• Iron
• Nickel

Products Feeding:
The solutions of SINOFLOC anionic polymers must be prepared in suitable plants equipped with dry powders feeding and dispersion units and with continuous and moderate agitation. The dissolution water must have a temperature included between 10°C and 40°C; For a correct use of SINOFLOC polyacrylamide anionic and in order to achieve the best possible results, it is necessary to allow a “maturation” time of 60 minutes. When treating turbid water, the flocculants solution must be added to the water in a point of average turbulence, in order to achieve a thorough and homogeneous mixing without impairing the flock formation. Recommend operating concentration is 3g/l, and the maximum operating concentration is 15g/l. For an optimum performance on specific applications on anionic polymer, please consult with SINOFLOC team.
