Innovative Use of Polymers

Polymers are integral to many mineral extraction processes. They enhance efficiency and sustainability in several ways:

• Solid-Liquid Separation: Using flocculants and coagulants to promote efficient separation. These polymers help in clarifying the liquid phase, reducing the turbidity, and facilitating the recycling of water in the mining process.
• Gravity Separation and Flotation: Enhancing these processes through targeted polymer applications. Our polymers improve the selectivity and kinetics of flotation, ensuring that valuable minerals are effectively separated from the ore.
• Filtration and Dewatering: Polymers play a crucial role in improving the filtration and dewatering processes, reducing moisture content and improving the quality of the final product.
• Tailings Management: Effective management of tailings is critical for environmental compliance. Our polymer solutions help in the consolidation and stabilization of tailings, reducing their environmental impact.

As the mining industry evolves and prioritizes minimizing its environmental impact, the role of polymers continues to expand, driving improvements in both performance and sustainability.

Choosing the Right Polymer

Selecting the appropriate polymer for mining applications requires an in-depth understanding of various properties, including:

• Solubility: Ensuring that the polymer can be effectively dissolved in the process water.
• Molecular Weight: Higher molecular weight polymers provide greater bridging between particles, enhancing flocculation.
• Charge Density: The charge of the polymer must be compatible with the minerals in the ore to optimize separation processes.
• Chemical Stability: The polymer must remain stable under the operating conditions of the mining process.
• Mechanical Properties: The polymer should have sufficient mechanical strength to withstand the stresses of the mining environment.
• Resistance to Environmental Factors: The polymer must be resistant to degradation by environmental factors such as temperature, pH, and salinity.
• Compatibility with Other Materials: The polymer must be compatible with other chemicals used in the mining process to avoid adverse reactions.

Our Comprehensive Range of Mining Chemicals

• Dust Suppression Chemicals for Mining Dust generated during the extraction, transportation, and processing of ores can pose significant health and environmental risks. To combat this issue, we offer a range of dust suppression polymers. These water-soluble and environmentally friendly polymers are applied to surfaces such as roads, stockpiles, and other exposed areas, creating a stable, cohesive layer that binds dust particles and prevents them from becoming airborne. This helps to minimize respiratory issues for workers, reduce contamination of nearby ecosystems, ensure regulatory compliance, and enhance overall sustainability.
• Mineral Processing Aids Polymers are used in mineral processing as fines recovery reagents, helping to reclaim valuable fine particles that would otherwise be lost in waste streams. Our flocculants and coagulants enhance solid-liquid separation, improving the efficiency of downstream processes. Additionally, as dewatering aids, these polymers facilitate the removal of water from mineral slurries, resulting in a more concentrated product and reduced waste disposal costs
• Solutions for Tailings Management Polymers play a crucial role in tailings management, offering innovative solutions for various challenges. Our water solids separation products, such as flocculants and coagulants, enhance solidliquid separation, promoting mineral recovery. Filtration enhancement polymers improve dewatering, reducing moisture content, while dust mitigation products minimize airborne dust emissions. These advanced polymer solutions contribute to safer and more sustainable mining practices.
• Mining Water Management Polymers are extensively used in mine water management, addressing challenges related to sediment, turbidity, and mine drainage. Our flocculants, coagulants, and water treatment polymers effectively remove suspended solids, reduce turbidity, and enable water reuse in mine process streams or for water discharge programs. These solutions also assist in storm control, preventing erosion and sediment runoff. Our advanced polymer solutions promote environmentally responsible mining practices and effective water management.
• Superabsorbent Polymers (SAP) Superabsorbent polymers transform problematic sticky or muddy ores into crusty or fragile agglomerates that are easy to handle and dry process. This optimization improves throughput and performance, facilitates ore transport, and prevents liquefaction. Superabsorbent polymers are also used to prevent freezing or solidification of slurry tailings, ensuring smoother operations in various climatic conditions.
• Pelletizing Aids and Binders Agglomeration is widely utilized in the mining industry to allow fine powdered ores or minerals to enter firing processes. The use of a binder is required for effective agglomeration processes and to achieve the mechanical strength needed to avoid breaks and failures during transport and heat reduction of the agglomerates. Organic binders offer numerous advantages over inorganic binders, including uniform and plastic agglomerate formation, higher metal content, and less abrasion on equipment like roller presses or extruders.
• Soil Stabilizers Soil stabilizers are crucial in mining operations for stabilizing loose or problematic soils. Our soil stabilizers improve soil strength, reduce erosion, and enhance load-bearing capacity, making construction and maintenance of mining infrastructure more reliable and cost-effective.
• Filter Aids Filter aids are used in the ore slurry filtration process to reduce moisture content and improve filtration efficiency. Our filter aids enhance the clarity of the filtrate, reduce drying time, and improve the overall quality of the final product.
• Furnace Oil Additive Elevate kiln efficiency with AEVIX's furnace oil additive. Our solution enhances the calorific value of furnace oil, ensuring complete combustion of hydrocarbons. This not only maximizes energy output but also minimizes carbon footprints and reduces maintenance needs. Optimize your mining furnace operations with AEVIX for cleaner, more sustainable performance.
