In the lead zinc ore beneficiation process, due to factors such as the complex nature of the ore, large fluctuations in raw ore grade, and high impurity content, in order to improve the beneficiation efficiency and product quality, and reduce production costs and resource waste, it is necessary to optimize the ore beneficiation process. Optimization of lead-zinc ore process flow mainly includes the following three aspects: grinding optimization, mineral processing process optimization and dehydration and drying optimization. In this article, we will describe the lead zinc ore beneficiation optimization from these three aspects one by one.

01Lead zinc ore grinding optimization

Grinding is an important link in the mineral processing process, and its energy consumption and cost account for a large proportion of the entire mineral processing process. Optimization of the grinding process is mainly to achieve the goals of improving the grinding effect and reducing energy consumption and costs through reasonable selection of grinding equipment, determination of appropriate grinding parameters, and improvement of grinding operation efficiency.

In the crushing and screening process, appropriate crushing equipment and screening equipment should be selected, and a reasonable crushing and screening process should be determined based on the nature of the ore and process requirements. At the same time, the maintenance and upkeep of equipment should be strengthened to ensure the normal operation of the equipment.

Grinding and classifying is one of the important links in lead zinc ore beneficiation. Appropriate grinding equipment and classifying equipment should be selected, and a reasonable grinding and classifying process should be determined based on the nature of the ore and process requirements. At the same time, parameters during the grinding and classification process should be controlled, such as grinding time, grinding concentration, etc.

02Optimization of lead zinc ore separation process

Beneficiation is the core link in the lead zinc ore beneficiation process. By optimizing the beneficiation process, the recovery rate of useful components and product quality can be improved. The optimization of the separation process mainly includes the optimization of the flotation process structure, the optimization of the flotation equipment parameters, the optimization of the flotation reagent system, and the optimization of the flotation operating system.

01 Flotation process structure optimization

Process structure optimization is an important part of lead zinc ore flotation process optimization. This includes detailed analysis of all aspects of the entire flotation process, identifying possible problems and bottlenecks and proposing solutions. For example, the number of stages of fine and sweeping, the processing method of medium ore, etc.

02 Flotation equipment parameter optimization

Appropriate flotation machine models and specifications should be selected, and reasonable flotation machine parameters should be determined based on the nature of the ore and process requirements, such as flotation machine volume, aeration volume, stirring intensity, etc. At the same time, parameters during the operation of the flotation machine should be controlled, such as flotation machine current, flotation machine pressure, etc.

03 Optimization of flotation reagent system

The appropriate type and dosage of flotation reagents should be selected based on the nature of the ore and process requirements, and a reasonable flotation reagent system should be formulated. At the same time, parameters during the use of pharmaceuticals should be controlled, such as dosage, dosage time, etc.

04 Flotation operation system optimization

A reasonable flotation operation system should be formulated based on the nature of the ore and process requirements, including the number of flotations, the time of each flotation, the number of flushes after each flotation, etc. At the same time, the operating parameters during the flotation process should be controlled, such as feed speed, feed concentration, foam layer thickness, etc.

In order to ensure the stability and efficiency of the lead zinc ore flotation process, it is necessary to formulate a set of scientific and reasonable operating procedures. Operating procedures should include specific operating steps, equipment maintenance methods, safety precautions, etc., and regular training and assessment of employees should be conducted to ensure that employees can carry out production activities in accordance with operating procedures.

03Optimization of dehydration and drying of lead zinc ore

In the dehydration and drying process of lead-zinc ore, you need to pay attention to the following:

1. Optimization of drying and dehydration process:

A two-stage dehydration process of concentration first and then filtration is used to remove moisture from the mineral processing products to improve the dryness and quality of the products.

2. Dehydration and drying equipment configuration optimization:

Based on production needs and ore properties, select appropriate equipment models, quantities and layouts to improve equipment utilization and operating efficiency.

3. Energy consumption optimization:

In order to reduce energy consumption during the dehydration and drying process of lead-zinc ore, advanced energy-saving technologies and equipment can be used.

The above is the content about the optimization of lead zinc ore beneficiation process. In actual production, the lead-zinc ore beneficiation process directly affects the quality of the lead-zinc ore concentrate and the benefits of the ore dressing plant. Pay attention to changes in the properties of lead-zinc ore, make timely adjustments according to the situation, and use scientific methods to achieve ideal beneficiation benefits.
