Froth Floation | Hoffman & Lamson Solutions

Froth flotation, also called ore flotation when used in mining applications, is a method for physically separating particles by having air bubbles that selectively adhere to specific surfaces The particles with attached air bubbles are carried to the surface and removed Froth flotation is one of the most widely used methods for ore beneficiationFor example, froth flotation is a technique commonly used in the mining industry In this technique, particles of interest are physically separated from a liquid phase as a result of differences in the ability of air bubbles to selectively adhere to the surface of the particles, based upon their hydrophobicityFlotation Froth an overview | ScienceDirect TopicsThe Denver DR flotation machine, which is an example of a typical froth flotation unit used in the mining industry, is illustrated in Figure 147 The pulp is introduced through a feed box and is distributed over the entire width of the first cellFlotation Froth an overview | ScienceDirect Topics
