In this work froth flotation studies with LiAlO (lithium-containing phase) and Melilite solid solution (gangue phase) are presented. The system was optimized with standard collectors and with compounds so far not applied as collectors. Furthermore, the principle of self-assembled monolayers was introduced to a froth flotation process for the first time resulting in excellent yields and selectivities.

Polymers are composed of many smaller units connected by covalent bonds, with higher molecular weight and larger molecular structure. Due to their economical efficiency and easy modification, researchers have discovered the potential of polymers as the flotation reagent in mineral processing, including the roles of depressant, flocculant, and frother. This paper provides a comprehensive review of the utilization of polymers in mineral flotation, emphasizing their current applications and mechanistic investigations.

The current increase in microplastic (MP) occurrence worldwide is predicted to cause severe environmental crises in the future. Therefore, it is imperative to develop innovative MP removal technologies that can effectively mitigate MP emissions in any given scenario. This review discusses recent environmentally friendly advances in MP removal technologies that aim to overcome the limitations of current technologies, prevent secondary pollution, and utilize low energy.

Coal gasification fine slag (CGFS) is a solid waste produced from gasification process, which consists of residual carbon with porous structure and minerals. The capture of CO by porous materials is an effective method for reducing CO emissions from industrial sources. In this work, the effective separation of residual carbon and ash from CGFS was achieved by froth flotation.

Sodium diethyldithiocarbamate (DDTC), a common collector used to enhance the hydrophobicity of minerals in froth flotation, nevertheless weakens the hydrophobicity of the talc surface. To rationalize this anomaly, the interactions of a hydrophobic alkyl group and hydrophilic mineralophilic group (-NCS) of heteropolar surfactant DDTC, and a water molecule with the talc (001) surface, were investigated. Herein, DFT simulations found that the talc (001) surface features natural hydrophobicity determined by the competition between adhesion (surface water) and cohesion (water-water interactions).
