However, separation efficiency, concentrate grade results indicate that even though higher sodium silicate dosage increases the recovery it also increases the recovery of gangue (silica) to the concentrate. This may be explained by the increase of fine silica particles dispersed by sodium silicate entrainment to the concentrate.

The genetic features of quartz sands and quartzites of Oman are determined. It is established that, along with coastal-marine, there are also delta varieties of quartz sand and quartzite.
"The words "clay" and "clay mineral" may be used interchangeably throughout this paper to identify known or unknown mineral suites, but not with the intent to specify size. In general, "clay" is a term referring to any or all of the naturally occurring finely divided hydrated aluminum silicates. The "clay min
Coal is the prime fuel in generation of power, and in India, 60% of power generation is from itbustion of coal generates huge quantity of ash (bottom& fly ash) as solid industrial waste. The disposal of ash is a …

Separation and identification of minerals composing the Tunisian silica sands have been conducted by acid etching and hot filtration/sedimentation (HFS) without affecting the quartz component.
(M agnetic separator for silica separation) 03 Iron Removal by Flotation Back. Flotation is mainly used to separate feldspar from silica sand, and can also be used to remove clay minerals such as mica and secondary iron from silica sand. The most typical process is to use hydrofluoric acid as the activator, and use an amine cationic …
One of the most promising methods of obtaining alumina from high-silica aluminum ores is a hydrochloric acid technology, followed by the selective separation of aluminum compounds from acidic solutions [9,10,11]. The main advantage of this technology is the removal of silicon oxide at the first stage of the process.
As emerging water pollutants, oxytetracycline (OTC) and its derivatives are detrimental to humans, organisms, and aquatic ecosystems. Oxytetracycline hydrochloride (OTCH) was effectively absorbed from water by silica (SiO 2) and metakaolinite (MK).In this study, we employed a unique metric known as BAGI to evaluate the suggested …
Mineral change and micropore development are important deterioration features of soft rock during water–rock interaction, but ignoring the differences and contributions of potential physical and chemical processes in existing laboratory studies. This paper carried out multiple micro-measurements on mudstone and sandstone after …
The results of the proximate analysis of coal gangue and the ash composition are listed in Table 1.The amounts of SiO 2, Al 2 O 3, and Fe 2 O 3 account for 52.44%, 43.64%, and 2.74% in the ash of coal gangue. Moreover, other impurities, such as TiO 2, MgO, and CaO, are also observed in small quantities.The sum of the percentages of …
For a particular separation process, the requirement for choosing membrane materials is complicated and includes longevity, mechanical reliability in operational conditions, efficiency and quality of separation [].Mixed matrix membranes (MMMs) consist of a polymer matrix that has been filled with different inorganic …
Reactive silica was synthesised using precursors from heated kaolinitic clay at 600, 700 and 800 °C. Each precursor was dissolved in an aqueous acidic medium; …
1 Introduction. Silica nanoparticles have found applications in a variety of fields including drug delivery systems, catalysis, biomedics, biological imaging, chromatography, sensors, liquid armors and as filler in composite materials [Citation 1 – Citation 4].A method for the production of spherical and mono-dispersed silica …
The separation of alumina and silica in clinker was carried out by alkaline leaching in 160 g/L NaOH solution with solid/liquid of 5 g/50 mL at 110 °C for 180 min. Fig. 8 shows that the silica leaching ratio is about 95% and nearly unchanged when treating the clinker of RCG-800 °C and RCG-900 °C, and the corresponding A/S in the leached ...
Silica (SiO2), a component of the earth's crust, has been in use for many nanotechnological applications.
