Research progress of molecular dynamics simulation in mineral flotation
Flotation reagents are the key to achieving selective separation of minerals,and in particular,mixed reagents are widely used in mineral flotation.The performance of flotation reagents is closely related to the microscopic adsorption structure and assembly behavior of the reagents at the three-phase interface.Exploring the interaction mechanism of reagents from the microscopic level has become a hot spot for scholars in recent years.With the rapid development of high-performance computing,molecular dynamics simulation has gradually become an effective tool for studying mineral flotation behavior.The application of combined reagents was discussed in silicate flotation separation in recent years,the progress of molecular dynamics simulation of reagents in aqueous solution system,gas-water interface and mineral-water interface was highlighted,the problems in the current simulation studies were pointed out,and the application prospect of molecular dynamics in mineral flotation was discussed.
