Esse trabalho teve por objetivo avaliar o desempenho do coletor óleo de soja hidrogenado na flotação de quatro tipologias de minérios fosfáticos da mina de Tapira/MG, denominadas piroxenito silicificado semicompacto, piroxenito silicificado compacto, silexito e piroxenito serpentinizado, cujas relações CaO/P2O5 eram de 2,1, 3,5, 2,5 e 1,33, respectivamente. Para a realização dos experimentos, foram aplicadas a metodologia estatística de planejamento e a análise fatorial de experimentos, onde foram estudadas as dosagens de coletor (óleo de soja), a dosagem de depressor (amido de milho gelatinizado) e o pH de flotação. Verificou-se que o valor de pH ideal para a flotação dos minérios foi igual a 11, exceto para o minério silexito, que foi igual a 8. A relação CaO/P2O5 dos concentrados foi maior para os minérios com maior conteúdo de carbonatos e aumentava com o aumento da dosagem de coletor, evidenciando a baixa seletividade desse reagente para a separação entre a apatita e a ganga carbonática a ela associada. Observou-se a necessidade de etapa cleaner para obtenção de concentrados dentro das especificações de mercado para todas as amostras estudadas.
In this work was studied the froth flotantion response of fuor diferent types of phosphate ores from Tapira-MG using fatty acid soap from soja as apatite colector and corn starch gelatinized as gangue depress. The CaO/P2O5 relation of the half compact silificate piroxenite, compact silificate piroxenite, silexite and serpentinized piroxenite ores samples were 2,1, 3,5, 2,5 e 1,33, respectivally. The experiments were conduct and analised using fatorial planing of experiments that studied the influence of pH, coletctor and starch concentration. The optimun pH value to float the sample ores was 11, except for silexite sample that it was 8. The increase of colector concentration conducts to concentrates with lower P2O5 content and higher CaO/P2O5 relation. The concentrates relation from ores with higher relation CaO/P2O5 were higher too what confirme the poor selectivity among apatite and carbonates by fatty acid soap. In order to obtain the market chemical specifications of phophate concentrates is necessary the cleaner step for all ores samples studied
