A New Era of Frother Technology
Syensqo has disrupted the mining industry by unveiling its latest innovation – the Transfoamer product line. This revolutionary frother technology stands out as the first “switchable” frothers, setting a new benchmark in mineral processing.
Addressing Industry Challenges
Traditional mining operations often grapple with the dilemma of using a combination of strong and weak frothers. While this approach maintains a consistent froth level, it hampers the frother’s efficiency at its peak. Syensqo identified this limitation and developed a unique single-frother solution in the form of Transfoamer.
The Science Behind Transfoamer
Transfoamer frothers exhibit a remarkable characteristic – they transition from being strong and robust frothers in the rougher circuit to weaker frothers in the cleaner circuit in response to pH levels. This adaptable trait makes them particularly well-suited for applications in bulk copper and molybdenum flotation processes.
Customization and Optimization
For ores with more complex characteristics, the Transfoamer frothers can be further customized using the Syensqo Cube connected dosing unit. This tailored approach ensures maximum efficiency and recovery rates, catering to the diverse needs of mining operations.
Moreover, the Transfoamer frothers do not accumulate or recirculate within the system, enhancing the overall stability of the processing circuit.
