Use of fatty acids with an ethoxylated alcohol for apatite flotation

Phosphate is recovered mainly by direct flotation from apatite-bearing ores of these igneous deposits. Fatty acid collectors (tall oils, vegetable oils and their derivatives) are used, in general, for apatite flotation (Filippova et al., 2014).Corn starches are utilised in depressing gangue minerals in all Brazilian concentrators (Guimarães et al., 2005).
