Estimation of air recovery by measuring froth transport over the …

Among these variables, flotation cell size and its impact on solids entrainment and froth transport have become increasingly important. In this context, Leiva et al. (2012) and Rojas et al. (2014) studied the froth transport in a two-dimensional cell operating with an air-water system.

Gold recovery improvements in grinding and flash flotation circuit

The flotation chemistry is the same for both flash flotation and standard flotation, but the hydrodynamics and froth phase are quite different (Jameson, 1984, Yoon, 2000, Tsatouhas et al., 2006, Arellano-Piña et al., 2017). Although, in a flash cell, it is commonly accepted that coarse particles float, it should be considered that, by removing ...

Mineral solids transport in a two-dimensional flotation froth

The prototype flotation cell had a water volume of 210 L, and the froth depth was kept at 4.5 ± 0.5 cm below the lip level. A constant concentration of 12 ± 0.3 ppm of frother (F150, Flottec) was used for each experiment (this condition provided enough and stable froth), while the superficial gas rate was maintained at 1.5 ± 0.2 cm/s.

The investigation results suggest that flotation is generally affected by the concentration of bacterial biomass used in the micro-flotation cell. Apatite recorded a high flotation efficiency of around 90%, while quartz achieved 14% flotation at pH 5 and a high concentration of bacterial biomass under identical experimental conditions.

The Inspiration Copper Co. uses flotation as the prime process, and its 800 tons per section is treated by 24 roughing-cells and 4 cleaners. In this case the cells are run in series, the primary cells treating the original feed and the secondary cells re-treating only the slime from the primary tailing after the sand has been removed.
