Improving flocculation and dewatering performance of iron …
Characterization studies showed that the tailings thickeners feed of Sangan iron beneficiation plant is composed of hematite, goethite, quartz, chlorite, calcite and dolomite. The point of zero charge of the sample was 2.7 and its zeta potential was −17 mV at the natural pH of the tailings slurry in the plant. The laboratory settling studies ...
