dc.description.abstract The depletion of high-grade iron ores has necessitated the beneficiation of low-grade iron ores. Flotation is considered the most efficient operation to upgrade the iron content of fine-grained ores that do not respond to gravity or size classification units. Out of several reagents used in iron ore reverse flotation, depressants play a crucial role in selectively making the iron oxides hydrophilic and prohibiting them from reporting to the gangue-rich froth phase. Starch is widely used as the depressant in iron ore flotation. The present paper attempts to highlight different facets of starch as an iron ore depressant. It reviews the important research papers that discuss the origin and chemistry of starch, starch-iron oxide interaction mechanism, and the application of different types of starches and their alternatives in iron ore flotation.
