Application of coal flotation reagents in China-current status and developing trend

Diversified kinds of flotation reagents are available with the collector and frother being the most commonly used ones. The efficiency of these two kinds of reagents exerts a direct bearing on the coal flotation performance. Following an analysis of the present status in application of the collector and frother, a prediction of their developing trend is made in the paper in a bid to provide a theoretical support for the improvement of the effect of these reagents and flotation performance.
