Kalkopi̇ri̇t-Pi̇ri̇t Flotasyonunda Elektrokimyasal Potansi̇yel Ölçümü Ve Seçi̇mli̇li̇ğe Etki̇si̇ (original) (raw)

In this paper, measurement of pulp potential was done using platinum, chalcopyrite and pyrite electrodes in the flotation tests undertaken at different electrochemical conditions using Murgul (Artvin) copper ore, and the flotation behaviour of the minerals was explained based on the electrode potential values. Moreover, the relationship between the measured potential values was investigated for these three electrodes. The relationship between platinum, pyrite and chalcopyrite electrodes was found to be linear in the collectorless flotation tests performed at different pulp potentials using air and nitrogen as flotation gas. Besides, the flotation selectivity increased as the difference between potential values of chalcopyrite and pyrite electrodes increased
