• Effect of ultrasound pre-treatment on carbonaceous copper-bearing shale flotation 

      Kruszelnicki, Mateusz; Hassanzadeh, Ahmad; Legawiec, Krzysztof; Polowczyk, Izabela; Kowalczuk, Przemyslaw (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)
      Although numerous studies have been implemented on identifying the impact of acoustic waves on mineral beneficiation, its fundamental aspects remain unclear in the literature. The present work, for the first time, ...
    • Heterocoagulation of shale particles and bubbles in the presence of ionic surfactants 

      Polowczyk, Izabela; Kruszelnicki, Mateusz; Kowalczuk, Przemyslaw (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)
      Adsorption of surfactants is one of the important feature governing interactions between particulate matters. When interactions occur between two particulates, which differ from each other, heterocoagulation takes place. ...
    • Oil agglomeration of metal-bearing shale in the presence of mixed cationic-anionic surfactants 

      Polowczyk, Izabela; Kruszelnicki, Mateusz; Kowalczuk, Przemyslaw (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2018)
      This paper reports oil agglomeration of fine metal-bearing shale particles in the presence of cationic (dodecylamine hydrochloride) and anionic (sodium dodecyl sulfate) surfactants and their mixture. The experimental results ...
