ABSTRACT
In order to determine various flotation parameters on the processing of Kia-Sar coal sample, different tests were carried out in laboratory scale. The type and amount of frother, collector, solid percent, feed size and pH were specified based on the tests results, regarding feed, concentrate and tailings ash contents. Results indicate that the best type of collector and frother are fuel oil (1500 g/t) and pine oil (40 g/t) respectively, at pH = 7. The most efficient feed size was −600 micron with 24 solid percent in pulp.
