A method for removing finely divided particles of a colored titaniferous impurity from a dispersed alkaline pulp of kaolin clay by froth flotation. The collector for the impurities is a very low rosin acid tall oil which also provides controlled frothing without the addition of hydrocarbon oils to prevent overfrothing.Web

For centuries kaolin has been used extensively in construction and manufacturing of pottery, mosaic tile and fine chinaware. In general, kaolinite is upgraded by physical methods such as froth flotation or water-washing. In some cases, kaolin is considered as impurity minerals, such as in the processing of diasporic bauxite ores.Web

Unlike many flotation processes where the desired component is concentrated in the froth, kaolin flotation is the reverse of this, i. e., the undesired component is removed in the froth and discarded. While pure anatase Ti02 is a very white pigment with a brightness of approximately 100, the anatase present in the kaolin deposits hasWeb

Froth flotation involves an intense treatment of their tails, affecting how water can be recycled in upstream operations.

The kaolin clays mined in Georgia contain two major impurities: anatase (TiO 2) and iron oxide. The anatase contains a considerable amount of iron in its lattice, which gives a brownish tint to the clays. This mineral is, therefore, removed by froth flotation to produce coating-grade (bright) clays.Web
