Water is required both during mining and processing of the phosphate ore. The water demand is high during the washing and flotation cycle. The Mosaic company in Florida, the largest phosphate mining company of the world, has a permit to use 76 million gallon of water per day from the central Florida groundwater aquifer .
The traditional approach for the beneficiation of South African siliceous sedimentary phosphate ores has been reverse cationic flotation. The robustness of this approach, however, has been a concern due to its sensitivity to parameters such as slimes content, headgrade (P 2 O 5 and SiO 2 content), reagent dosages and conditioning …
