On-line determination of remained xanthate concentration in pulp

Abstract

The construction principle of the system for determination of xanthate concentration, which consists of an Ion-selective electrode (ISE) and a microprocessor based SDI analyzer, was described in the paper. The performances of the developed system were discussed in details. The results both detected in solutions and in sulfide mineral flotation system were given; also the results by ultraviolet spectrometry were compared with those by the developed system.
