Although low-temperature plasma has been proven to be effective for mineral modification, its application to the pulp system has not been reported. In this study, surface dielectric barrier discharge (SDBD) low-temperature plasma was introduced into the pulp through a bubble generator, and its modification mechanism on arsenopyrite and pyrite was investigated. The results showed that SDBD plasma exhibited excellent selectivity, with much less hydrophilic oxidation products on the surface of plasma-modified pyrite compared to arsenopyrite. The introduction of plasma into the pulp resulted in a longer residence time of the pulp chemistry of arsenopyrite in the stable oxidation region compared to pyrite. Plasma modification significantly enhanced the oxidation degree of the defect area on the surface of arsenopyrite, leading to a decrease in its hydrophobicity and hindering the adsorption of collector and the oxidation of xanthate ions into dixanthogen. Due to its environmentally-friendly property, SDBD plasma modification has a broad application prospect in the flotation separation of polymetallic sulfide ores.
Low-temperature plasma has not been reported to be applied to pulp system although it has been proved to be an effective method for the selective modification of minerals. In this research, surface dielectric barrier discharge (SDBD) low-temperature plasma was introduced into the pulp through a bubble generator, and its modification mechanism on arsenopyrite and pyrite was investigated. SDBD plasma exhibited an excellent selectivity where the concentration of hydrophilic oxidation products on the surface of plasma-modified pyrite was much less than arsenopyrite. The introduction of plasma into the pulp resulted in a longer residence time of the pulp chemistry of arsenopyrite in the stable oxidation region than that of pyrite. Plasma modification significantly enhanced the oxidation degree of the defect area on the surface of arsenopyrite, which resulted in the decrease of its hydrophobicity and thereby hindered the adsorption of collector and the oxidation of xanthate ions into dixanthogen. Since its environmently-friendly property, SDBD plasma modification has a broad application prospect in the flotation separation of polymetallic sulfide ores.
