Systematic review of feldspar beneficiation and its comprehensive

Future research needs on the feldspar beneficiation are discussed. Abstract. Feldspar is a valuable raw material in the manufacture of glass, ceramic, fillers, enamel frits, and welding electrodes. Feldspar is the single most abundant mineral in the earth crust and is generally associated with other silicate, titanium, and iron minerals ...

Beneficiation of Glass Sand—A Review

The massive expansion of glass industry in India, especially sheet glass industry over the last 15 years has, of necessity, led to a tremendous growth in the demand for silica sand. Reserves of superior quality sand are fast depleting. Thorough beneficiation of the available inferior quality sand is, therefore, becoming a necessity.
