The new machine was applied to the iron removal from potash feldspar. The effects of the magnetic field intensity, pulp density and grinding fineness on the iron removal were investigated. The optimized operation parameters were achieved and listed as follows: the -0.074 mm content is 85%, the pulp density is 45% and the magnetic field strength is 2T. A close test of middles regrinding was also carried out to improve concentrate yield. The data show that the grade of TFe(total iron) in potash feldspar product decreased from 1.31% to 0.21% and the concentrate yield reached 85.32%. All the results indicated that the traditonal high-intensity electromagnetic separators can be betterly substituted by the new permanent magnetic separator. This study may provide the theoretical evidence for iron removal from potash feldspar.展开更多

In the first step, potash feldspar was roasted with Na_2CO_3 and was followed by leaching using Na OH solution to increase the levels of potassium, sodium, and aluminum in the solid residue. The leaching solution was then carbonated to yield ultrafine silica. The optimized reaction conditions in the roasting process were as follows: an Na_2CO_3-to-potash feldspar molar ratio of 1.1, a reaction temperature of 875°C, and a reaction time of 1.5 h. Under these conditions, the extraction rate of SiO_2 was 98.13%. The optimized carbonation conditions included a final solution p H value of 9.0, a temperature of 40°C, a CO_2 flow rate of 6 m L/min, a stirring intensity of 600 r/min, and an ethanol-to-water volume ratio of 1:9. The precipitation rate and granularity of the SiO_2 particles were 99.63% and 200 nm, respectively. We confirmed the quality of the obtained ultrafine silica by comparing the recorded indexes with those specified in Chinese National Standard GB 25576―2010.展开更多
