Enrichment of minerals of the mining and metallurgical complex

     The goal and objectives are to create new technologies in the field of mineral processing. The following tasks are expected to be solved within the framework of the project:

• creasing the efficiency of flotation during selective enrichment of non-ferrous metal ores by 2-3%;
• investigation of physico-chemical properties of the surface of copper sulfide minerals and galena;
• synthesis of flotation reagents and investigation of their properties;
• investigation of the processes of sorption of flotation agents on minerals by chromatography;
• study of the degree of hydration of the surface of copper and lead sulfide minerals using differential thermal and spectrophotometric analysis methods;
• selection of flotation reagents for selective flotation of minerals and polymetallic ores.

      Direction equipment:

• Spectrophotometer with applied computer control;
•  Rotary evaporator type IR-1m3;
• Vibration eraser 75 T-DRM;
• Crusher DSCH 100×200;
• Vibrating ball mill MM301.

      Cooperation:

•  Kazakhmys Corporation LLP by Balkhashtsvetmet;
• JSC «NPK»Mechanobr-technika» (St. Petersburg, Russia);
•  DGP «Chemical and Metallurgical Institute named after Zh. Abishev».
