Applications for our Products
Mining & Froth Flotation Soap Applications
Valley Products provides specialized, naturally derived solutions for froth flotation—the leading method for recovering valuable minerals such as sulfides, copper, lead, and zinc. Our products are designed to optimize mineral recovery by selectively binding to desired particles, enhancing the efficiency and yield of the flotation process.
When our flotation agents are added to a slurry of ground ore, they bind to the target mineral particles, making them hydrophobic (water-repellent). This selective binding causes the minerals to attach to air bubbles as the slurry is agitated and aerated, allowing these concentrated materials to rise and form a froth that can be efficiently collected.
Why Choose Valley Products for Froth Flotation?
- Selective Mineral Binding: Our natural flotation agents ensure that only the desired mineral particles become hydrophobic, increasing the purity and concentration of the recovered material.
- Enhanced Recovery Efficiency: By optimizing mineral attachment to air bubbles, our products improve the overall recovery rate, supporting greater productivity in your mill.
- Environmentally Friendly: Made from natural ingredients, our flotation agents reduce environmental impact while providing high-performance mineral recovery solutions.
