Slurry Conditioning Tank for Even Reagent Distribution
Delivers even reagent distribution so flotation stays consistent shift to shift.
The Slurry Conditioning Tank for Even Reagent Distribution is a 20 m³ unit built to give reagents uniform contact with the whole pulp volume. Inconsistent reagent mixing is one of the most common causes of fluctuating concentrate grade; this tank addresses that by keeping the entire batch in gentle motion so collectors and frothers reach every particle before the pulp enters the flotation bank.
Key Advantages
- 20 m³ working volume sized for mid-capacity concentrators
- Thorough agitation that avoids dead zones and uneven reagent dosing
- Stable, repeatable conditioning for steady downstream flotation
- Paddle or propeller impeller to suit different pulp densities
- Wear-resistant polyurethane on wetted wear surfaces
Working Principle
A geared impeller rotates at 84 r/min, slowly lifting and folding the pulp so that reagent introduced at the feed point is dispersed evenly rather than concentrated near the inlet. Slow, full-volume mixing suits heavy or fast-settling slurries.
Applications
- Copper and copper-molybdenum circuits
- Zinc and lead flotation plants
- Gold and silver ore processing
- Plants upgrading an existing conditioning stage
Why Choose This Unit
Consistent reagent contact is what keeps a flotation plant's grade stable, and this tank is dimensioned to deliver it at a mid-range scale. Supplied by Y&X to ISO9001 standards, it can be built to drawing or sample and integrates with most conditioning lines.
Packing & Delivery
Standard export packing, or customized packing as your request. Lead time is 15–30 working days; payment by L/C or T/T; minimum order quantity 1 set.
FAQ
How does it improve flotation?
By dispersing reagent evenly through the pulp so the flotation bank sees a consistent feed.
What impeller is used?
A paddle or propeller impeller, chosen to suit the duty.
Can it replace an existing tank?
Yes; dimensions and connections can be matched to your layout.
