Froth flotation is the largest tonnage separation in mineral processing by which valuable mineral is separated from waste rock. Advances in control and optimisation of the froth flotation process are of great relevance since even very small increases in recovery lead to large economic benefits (Ferreira and Loveday, 2000, Maldonado et al., 2007). ...

The flotation process is a separation technique primarily used in mineral processing for the recovery of minerals (Wills and Finch, 2016), that also finds application in other industrial processes such as wastewater treatment and paper recycling (Saththasivam et al., 2016, Vashisth et al., 2011).Separation of mineral particles by flotation takes advantage of the wettability …

After conditioning, the froth height and gas flowrate were set to 1 cm and 11.5 L/min, respectively.In flotation, superficial gas velocity (J g) is the parameter usually used to represent the air flowrate as it is independent of cell size.In industrial applications, J g usually ranges from 0.5 to 3.0 cm/s (Neethling and Cilliers, 2009).In this study, a J g value of 0.8 cm/s …

The relationship between the bubble diameter d b and the superficial gas velocity J g in the collection zone of a flotation column can be approximately given as: (5) d b ∝J 0.25 g. By observation, d b in the froth zone is also dependent on J g, however, a valid relationship is currently unknown.It can be concluded, however, that (6) d bO ∝J q g, where q>0.25. Thus, …

Excess frothers give misleading results, in that too much froth is produced, gangue minerals may be floated, selectivity is poor, and recovery is misleading. In non-sulphide flotation, frothers used may be the same as for sulphides, or sodium oleate, Emulsol X-1, Ninol, or an alcohol derivative may be used.
