Froth Flotation. Flotation is undoubtedly the most important and versatile mineral separation technique, and both its use and application are continually being expanded to treat greater tonnages and to cover new areas. Recently celebrating its first centenary, flotation has permitted the mining of low-grade and complex ore bodies which would ...

· Flotation, in its latest phase, is a process of concentrating ores by frothing. When crushed ore, previously mixed with water and a relatively minute addition of oil, is agitated violently in the presence of air, a froth is formed. This froth, rising to the surface of the liquid mixture, is laden with sulphides or other ….

Flotation is also one of the processes used for the recovery of recycled paper and wastewater treatment. A high froth flotation efficiency is limited to the narrow particle size range, between 50 and 600 μm for coal as shown in Fig. 4.9 [81]. The coarser the coal, the harder it is to stay attached to the air bubble.

This process of Froth Flotation became the hallmark of Mineral Separation Ltd and constituted a major revolution in minerals technology. In 1905, this process was adopted at Broken Hill and effectively solved the problem of recovering the precious minerals from the tailing dumps. All was not solved, however, for two problems persisted.

Analysis Of Froth Flotation Kinetics. It is assumed that the flotation process is basically first-order, but that a continuous distribution of first-order constants exists because of the varying nature of the particles floated. The theory thus applies to conditions of 'free flotation'. Mathematical expressions are developed for batch and ...
