Fluorite is an important mineral to produce hydrofluoric acid. As fluorite resources contain calcite as a gangue mineral, the separation between these two calcium containing minerals is difficult. Tannic acid is the most commonly used reagent as a depressant to separate fluorite from calcite by flotation. To enhance this separation, it is so primordial to understand tannic acid physicochemical reactivity via these minerals. Therefore, the aim of this work is to investigate the mechanism of tannic acid adsorption on the fluorite surface by experimental study using isotherm, kinetic and thermodynamic. Adsorption isotherm modelling results showed that the adsorption process is well described by Sips model. On the other hand, the kinetic and thermodynamic require firstly the adsorption study as a function of three main reactional parameters including initial tannic acid concentration, solution pH and temperature. This study showed that acidic pH as well as initial tannic acid concentration increase and temperature decrease promote the studied adsorption. These finding were then exploited to determine the adsorption mechanism by pseudo n order kinetic model adjustment to experimental kinetic data using nonlinear regression method. Obtained high correlation coefficient and low mean absolute error at 95 % confidence level showed good agreement of experimental kinetic data with the tested model. These results revealed that the mechanism of tannic acid adsorption onto fluorite was attributed to a chemical reaction. In addition, the thermodynamic study showed that the studied adsorption process was exothermic.

Calcite depression is the most effective physicochemical process to valorize fluorine mineral. This process is achieved by adsorption of tannic acid, as the commonly used reagent, onto calcite. Adsorption investigation is very important in mineral processing. The present work focuses on optimization of physicochemical parameters of tannic acid adsorption onto calcite. Experimental study is carried out by a response surface methodology based on Box-Behnken design. Obtained results are exploited to develop a statistical model. Analysis of variance and residuals are performed to check the significance of tested models. Among these models, Cox-Box model predicts very well the obtained experimental data. This model shows that initial tannic acid concentration and solution pH as well as their interactions are the most significant parameters. Optimal conditions are achieved using the obtained statistical model. The present investigation is an important preliminary step to better understand calcite flotation behavior using tannic acid as a depressant.
