    Efeito dos íons Ca2+ E Mg2+ na flotação catiônica reversa de minério de ferro itabirítico.
    (2021) Cruz, Daniel Geraldo da; Gonçalves, Paola Suzane Moreira; Lelis, Deisiane Ferreira; Lima, Rosa Malena Fernandes
    Neste trabalho foi avaliado o efeito dos íons Ca2+ e Mg2+ , adicionados como sais de cloreto, na flotação catiônica reversa em pH 10,5 de uma amostra de minério de ferro itabirítico. Em geral, foi observado que concentrações totais de íons maiores que 83 mg/L em solução aquosa aumentou a recuperação de Fe e teor de SiO2 nos concentrado obtidos comparado com os ensaios efetuados na ausência dos mesmos. Ocorreu o oposto com o teor de Fe. Este efeito é devido à atração eletrostática entre as espécies positivas provenientes da hidrólise destes íons em solução aquosa e a superfície negativa do quartzo, que evitou a adsorção dos íons amonium, cujo principal mecanismo de adsorção é por atração eletrostática dos mesmos com a superfície mineral negativa. Contudo, o uso de ácido etilenodiiaminotetracético - EDTA após o condicionamento do minério com os íons Ca2+ e Mg2+, em proporções adequadas de EDTA para íons totais, produziu concentrados com teores de Fe e SiO2 similares aos concentrados desta amostra na ausência de íons, uma vez que eles foram complexados pelo EDTA e não foram mais adsorvidos na superfície negativa do quartzo.

    Effect of magnesium species on cationic flotation of quartz from hematite.
    (2020) Lelis, Deisiane Ferreira; Lima, Rosa Malena Fernandes; Rocha, Geriane Macedo; Leão, Versiane Albis
    In the Quadrilátero Ferrífero Region, located in the state of Minas Gerais – Brazil, the utilization of recycled water from the tailing dams in the reverse cationic flotation of siliceous iron ores is common practice. In such process, ore concentrates assigning dolomite (2.5% to 10%) besides quartz in the mineral gangue, do not reach the desired specification for the production of blast furnace pellets (≤2% SiO2) given the loss of selectivity occurring in the separation of quartz from the Fe-bearing minerals, which can be related to a rise in the ions Ca and Mg in an aqueous medium resulting from the dissolution of dolomite. With a view to improving the reverse cationic flotation route for this type of ore, fundamental studies (microflotation trials, zeta potential, adsorption/Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy) into the effect of the Ca and Mg ions in the cationic flotation with the use of pure quartz and hematite mineral samples were carried out. The results attained with the Ca ions were presented in previous studies by the authors. The current investigation presents the results achieved with the Mg ions, added in water as MgCl2. In the microflotation trials carried out at pH 10.5, amine dosage for maximum recovery of quartz (2.5 ppm) and hematite (50 ppm) was applied. A strong depression of hematite by starch was confirmed, which did not occur with quartz. In the case of the Mg ions, a stronger depression effect was observed, if compared to starch, for the two minerals, starting from a dosage of 10 ppm of MgCl2. After the conditioning of both minerals with 10 ppm of MgCl2, followed by conditioning with 10 ppm of starch, the recoveries attained were negligible (3.5% to 4.4%). Based on thermodynamic data, zeta potential measurements, and infrared spectroscopy, it was concluded that the strong depression effect caused by the Mg ions on both minerals owes to the adsorption of the Mg2+ and MgOH+ species and also the precipitation of Mg(OH)2, where the starch is chemically adsorbed, preventing further amine adsorption. Only quartz recovery was reestablished after the complexation of the Mg ions in the water by ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid having close molar concentrations to the molar concentration of the Mg ions followed by starch conditioning. The results presented indicate the need for a reduction in the concentration of Mg in the water used, before flotation is conducted.

    Effects of calcium and chloride ions in iron ore reverse cationic flotation : fundamental studies.
    (2019) Lelis, Deisiane Ferreira; Cruz, Daniel Geraldo da; Lima, Rosa Malena Fernandes
    In this work, the simultaneous effects of Ca2+ and Cl− ions in an aqueous solution at pH 10.5 on the flotation of quartz (the main impurity in itabiritic iron ore) and hematite by starch and amine was investigated. A strong depression in the flotation of both quartz and hematite conditioned with CaCl2 was observed. This effect was higher for hematite than for quartz. Based on zeta potential measurements and the speciation diagram of calcium in aqueous solutions, the physical adsorption of Ca2+ on the surfaces of both minerals was inferred. The infrared spectrum of quartz conditioned with CaCl2 at pH 10.5 was similar to its reagent-free reference spectrum. However, a new band at the wavenumber of 1465 cm−1 was identified in the spectrum of hematite conditioned with CaCl2; this band did not exist in its reference spectrum. This new band may indicate the chemical adsorption of Cl− ions on the hematite surface. The complexation of Ca2+ by ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid enabled complete quartz recovery with amine. For hematite, recovery was partially restored, probably because of the positive chlorocomplexes on the hydrated iron surfaces of hematite, which prevented the adsorption of aminium ions at these sites. Therefore, the selective inverse cationic flotation of itabiritic iron ore at pH 10.5 in water containing Ca2+ is possibly only after complexing them with EDTA.

    Effect of EDTA on quartz and hematite flotation with starch/amine in an aqueous solution containing Mn2+ ions.
    (2016) Lelis, Deisiane Ferreira; Leão, Versiane Albis; Lima, Rosa Malena Fernandes
    In this paper, a detailed study of the influence of Mn2+ ions on quartz and hematite flotation (at pH 10.5 with starch/amine as depressor/collector) in the absence and presence of ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid (EDTA) is presented. By using zeta potential measurement and a careful analysis of manganese species present in water for dosages in which manganese hydroxide precipitated, we confirmed that the depression of both minerals by Mn2+ ions is due to the following: (i) the adsorption of Mn hydroxy complexes (Mn2(OH)3+ and Mn(OH)+); (ii) Mn2+ and mainly (iii) the precipitation of Mn(OH)2 on mineral surfaces. These effects hindered the adsorption of amine species on the surfaces of the minerals (quartz and hematite). EDTA was used to complex Mn2+ to restore the recoveries of both minerals. This was confirmed by the species distribution diagrams of Mn and EDTA–Mn in water. Conditioning with starch followed by amine at pH 10.5 enabled a selective separation of these minerals.

    Influência de cátions Ca2+, Mg2+ e Mn2+ na flotação reversa de minério de ferro.
    (2014) Lelis, Deisiane Ferreira; Lima, Rosa Malena Fernandes
    Este trabalho teve por objetivo investigar a influência dos cátions Ca2+, Mg2+ e Mn2+ na flotação catiônica de minério de ferro e a possibilidade do uso de complexante desses íons metálicos para uma maior seletividade no processo. Em uma primeira fase foram efetuados ensaios de microflotação dos minerais quartzo e hematita, usando acetato de eteramina com 50% de grau de neutralização (Flotigam EDA) em pH 10,5 nas dosagens de 2,5 e 50 mg/L que foram as concentrações de máxima flotabilidade para o quartzo (95,5%) e hematita (96,5%), respectivamente. Observou-se que nessas condições o amido de milho era pouco eficiente na depressão do quartzo. O inverso foi observado para a hematita, onde a dosagem de 10 mg/L foi capaz de quase anular a flotabilidade da mesma. Com a adição de CaCl2, MgCl2 e MnCl2, observou-se a depressão tanto do quartzo quanto da hematita para todas as dosagens testadas, sendo a máxima depressão na concentração de 200 mg/L. O uso do complexante sal dissódico de ácido etilenodiaminotetracético (EDTA) mostrou-se eficiente em altas concentrações (400 mg/L para CaCl2, 600 e 700 mg/L para MnCl2 e MgCl2, respectivamente) para ambos minerais. De modo geral, houve diminuição do módulo dos valores de potencial zeta negativo em pH 10,5 dos minerais (quartzo e hematita) em relação aos valores de potencial zeta dos mesmos na ausência dos sais estudados e da combinação dos reagentes (sais/amido, sais/EDTA/amido e sais/ EDTA/ amido/ amina). Verificou-se nos espectros infravermelhos dos minerais (hematita e quartzo) usados nos ensaios de adsorção a presença comprovada do hidróxido Mg(OH)2 sobre a superfície de ambos minerais. No caso dos ensaios efetuados com MnCl2, verificou-se a precipitação do próprio sal sobre a superfície dos minerais. Logo, pode-se afirmar que há adsorção dos cátions por atração eletrostática dos mesmos com as superfícies dos minerais carregados negativamente (potencial zeta) e precipitação do hidróxido Mg(OH)2 presentes na solução (espectros infravermelhos).
