Froth flotation is a physicochemical separation process that relies on differences in the surface properties of particles. It involves the selective attachment of hydrophobic particles to air bubbles, which then rise to the surface and form a frothy layer.
More ores are treated using froth flotation cells than by any other single machines or process. Non-metallics as well as metallics now being commercially recovered include gold, silver, copper, lead, zinc, iron, manganese, nickel, cobalt, molybdenum, graphite, phosphate, fluorspar, barite, feldspar and coal. Recent flotation …
Further, the inclusion of unit and flash flotation cells will generally provide better flotation stability and performance. Improved overall gold flotation recoveries from 3% to 10% have been quoted (Sandstrom and Jonsson, 1988, Jennings and Traczyk, 1988, McCulloch, 1990) for ores of variable gold and sulfide content (Taggart, 1945).
