view more201511 · Mechanical entrainment is a transfer process by which mineral particles suspended in water enter the flotation froth, move upwards, and finally leave the flotation cell with the mineral particles recovered by true flotation. Ideally, in a flotation cell, hydrophobic valuable mineral particles collide with air bubbles and form particle-bubble ...
view more2008121 · Mineral flotation in mechanically agitated vessels (cells) involves complex interaction between bubbles, particles and the liquid phase. Ideally, just enough power input from the impeller is needed to so that the frequency of particle–bubble collision and attachment is maximised, while at the same time detachment events are minimised.

The advent of self-aspirated pneumatic flotation cells introduced innovative approaches, such as vertical columns or downcomers, which dispersed air and pulp into dense froths of bubbles. Despite being a novel technology, demands for finer bubble …
