Product Description

Introduction

Depressant DS102, manufactured by Y&X Technology, is a highly efficient and environmentally friendly depressant specifically designed for the selective suppression of pyrite and pyrrhotite during flotation processes. It stands out as a green alternative to traditional lime usage, delivering superior performance in low or neutral alkaline conditions while maintaining minimal interference with valuable minerals like chalcopyrite, galena, and sphalerite.

 

Key Features

1. Selective Depressant:

   • Effectively suppresses pyrite and pyrrhotite.
   • Minimal inhibition on chalcopyrite, galena, and sphalerite.

2. Environmentally Friendly:

   • A sustainable alternative to lime, reducing the environmental footprint of beneficiation processes.
   • Safe for operations under low or neutral alkaline conditions.

3. Versatile Application:

   • Suitable for copper ore, lead-zinc ore, and copper-lead-zinc ore beneficiation.

Usage Guidelines

1. DS102 can be added directly as an original solution or diluted with water for better distribution.
2. To achieve optimal results:
   • Begin with a test dosage within the recommended range.
   • Adjust dosage based on flotation process feedback to fine-tune mineral separation performance.

 

Storage Instructions

• Store in a dry, well-ventilated environment.
• Protect from heat and sunlight.
• Follow the first in, first out principle to maintain product quality.
• Avoid exposure to strong acids, bases, oxidizing or reducing agents, and open flames.

 

Safety and Handling

1. Personal Protection:
   • Use safety glasses or a splash shield.
   • Wear natural rubber gloves and protective clothing.
   • Avoid inhaling vapors.
2. Hazard Information:
   • May cause irritation to skin and eyes.
   • Consult the Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) before handling.

 

Environmental Considerations

1. Most DS102 remains bound to the concentrate during processing, minimizing residual presence in tailings.
2. Prevent direct release into water systems to avoid environmental contamination.

 

Benefits of Using DS102

1. Performance:
   • Enhances the efficiency of flotation operations by selectively depressing unwanted minerals.
2. Cost-Effectiveness:
   • Reduces or replaces lime usage, cutting costs in alkaline management.
3. Sustainability:
   • Supports green mining practices with its environmentally friendly composition.

 

Summary

Depressant DS102 is an innovative and eco-friendly solution tailored for modern flotation processes. By offering exceptional selectivity, reducing environmental impacts, and lowering costs, it addresses key challenges in mineral beneficiation, making it an ideal choice for operations requiring the suppression of pyrite and pyrrhotite.
