在矿物加工工业中 ,最大限度地回收有用组分是最终的目的。浸出或浮选是在水介质中加工矿物的主要方法 ,在这两个过程中 ,配位化学可能起重要作用。这两个过程成功的实施决定于化学药剂与溶液中的金属离子或矿物表面上离子形成稳定的络合物。形成络合物的浸出过程 (如氰化物浸出、碱浸出和氯化物浸出 )一般可提高有用矿物在溶液中的溶解度。在浮选过程中 ,捕收剂或抑制剂与水溶液中的金属离子反应通过配位键形成络合物 ,这样可以使矿物有效地浮选分离。本文评述了在浸出和浮选等矿物加工过程中配位化学的作用。 In the mineral processing industry, maximizing the recovery of useful components is the ultimate goal. Leaching or flotation is the primary method of processing minerals in aqueous media, and coordination chemistry may play an important role in both processes. The successful implementation of these two processes depends on the formation of a stable complex between the chemical agent and the metal ion in the solution or ions on the surface of the mineral. Leaching processes that form complexes, such as cyanide leaching, alkali leaching, and chloride leaching, generally increase the solubility of useful minerals in solution. During the flotation process, the collector or inhibitor reacts with the metal ions in the aqueous solution to form a complex via a coordination bond, which allows the minerals to be effectively flotation separated. This article reviews the role of coordination chemistry in mineral processing such as leaching and flotation.
