Investigating the use of an ionic liquid for rare earth mineral flotation
Abstract. Common collectors for rare earth mineral (REM) flotation, which include carboxylates and hydroxamates, face problems such as being non-selective and sensitive to impurity ions. A type of ionic liquid (IL), tetraethylammonium mono- (2-ethylhexyl)2-ethylhexyl phosphonate ( [N 2222 ] [EHEHP]), has been investigated …

A review of reagents applied to rare-earth mineral flotation
The rare-earth elements (REE), which encompass the fifteen metallic elements of the lanthanoid series of the periodic table, yttrium and occasionally scandium, have gained enormous public, economic and scientific attention in recent years. These elements, which have been found in over 250 minerals, are of high economic and …
A review of flotation reagents for bastnäsite-(Ce) rare earth …
Several techniques are available for separating rare earth ore from gangue minerals, including re-election, magnetic separation, electric separation, and froth flotation [36, 37]. Froth flotation is a dominant technique for separating bastnäsite-(Ce) due to its ability to handle minerals of different sizes and adjust accordingly to the ...
