1. Introduction. The mechanically flotation process is most widely used for separating valuable minerals in mineral processing plants. The mineral flotation rate constant depends on the bubble-particle interactions that include collision, attachment and stability of a bubble-particle aggregate (Duan et al., 2003, Pyke et al., 2003).Therefore, …

dramatic reduction from 33 to 5 flotation cells. The new cleaner circuit consists of one B5400/18 cleaner/scalper Jameson Cell, one B5400/18 recleaner Jameson Cell and three cleaner/scavengers (one B5400/18 Jameson Cell and the two 100 m3 Wemco). The cleaner/scalper Jameson Cell takes rougher concentrate and produces final concentrate.
Fig. 1 shows RTD data from forced-air flotation cells of (a) 100 m 3 and (b) 300 m 3, with effective residence times of 4.7 and 4.4 min, respectively (Yianatos et al., 2015). Fig. 1 a shows a larger concentration in the first seconds. This was modelled as a by-pass flow representing the tracer short-circuit to the cell tailings, estimated from the …
A pilot-scale version of the Concorde Cell has been trialled on a PGM ore in South Africa, in the circuit depicted in Fig. 3.The ore was ground to a d 80 of 53 μm using three stages of grinding – primary ball mill, secondary ball mill and IsaMill. The head grade was in the range 2–3 g/tonne platinum.The minerals containing the PGM in the ore were …
Flotation machines constitute the basic equipment for useful minerals recovery from non-ferrous ores and other raw materials by flotation. They can operate also as individual flotation cells. Flotation Cells (Froth …

The kinetic modelling of flotation process has been reviewed in detail in three major flotation equipment namely mechanically agitated flotation cell, flotation column and dissolved air flotation.
As shown by Fraunholcz (2004), plastics depression occurs in the presence of cations, thus, distilled water, which is commonly used in mineral flotation studies, should not be used in plastics flotation; therefore, tap water was used instead.The frother used in this study was analytical grade methyl-iso-butyl carbinol (MIBC).2.2. Experimental …
