Because preliminary flotation studies suggested that desliming affects flotation performance, an attempt was made to quantify the effects of the major influencing parameters on the effectiveness of desliming and flotation. Because the optimum collector dosage was found to be very high, the effects of addition of sodium oleate and Aero 3477 were also investigated, to reduce the collector dosage. However, flotation results showed that the addition of sodium oleate and Aero 3477 does not alter the collector dosage significantly. Despite all the aforementioned efforts, only 20% of feed ash could be removed.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessDeashingDeslimingFactorial Design Of ExperimentsFlotationMalatya-Arguvan LigniteArticle38810481054WOS:0003749105000032-s2.0-8496645523810.1080/15567036.2015.1120819Q1Q4
