Scientists of Perm National Research Polytechnic University (PNIPU) have developed a method to increase the degree of mud extraction from Sylvinite ore to 63%. The press service of the scientific institution, in his statement to Gazete.
Sylvinite ore serves as a basic raw material for the production of potassium fertilizers, which play an important role in increasing the efficiency of agricultural crops.
However, the presence of clay sludge in the ore reduces the quality of the final product – potassium chloride. Flotation method is traditionally used to clean the ores from impurities, where the floküles “glues the mud particles of the mud particles with air bubbles, which allows them to separate them from the ore.
Polytechnics have found that the pre -processing of fluokules with an ultrasound frequency of 22 kHz has significantly increased their activity. Experiments showed that ultrasound destroys the structures in the solution, reduces viscosity and facilitates the flotation process. The maximum increase in removing muds was 3% compared to traditional methods.
