202131 · This review has classified and analysed froth flotation models for control purposes. Only flotation pulp phase models are currently suitable for control. Gaps in knowledge on froth phase models for control purposes are analysed. Further model development is crucial for effective flotation model-based controllers.

view moreFlotation equipment is a kind of beneficiation equipment which takes bubbles as the carrier and uses the difference in mineral surface wettability to separate minerals. In the late nineteenth century, flotation as a beneficiation method was explicitly proposed, and various types of flotation equipment were developed, including flotation cells and flotation columns.

The process flowsheet and ore mineralogy of the Kevitsa Mine were well documented by Musuku et al., 2016 [ 1 ], and accordingly, the main sulfide minerals are chalcopyrite, pentlandite, and pyrrhotite. Note that the Kevitsa …

To maximise recovery, the proportion of particles containing the valuable mineral which are floatable should be maximised. To maximise the grade, the flotation rate of the valuable mineral should be …
view more2016101 · The average energy dissipation rate in a flotation cell is equivalent to the energy expended in the pumping action of the impeller. This energy rate, or specific power input (ε), is related to the power input (P) of the impeller divided by the total mass of the fluid system (m) by: (3) ε = P m.

Flotation has been at the heart of the mineral processing industry for over 100 years, addressing the ‘sulphide’ problem of the early 1900s, and continues to provide one of the most important tools in mineral separation today. The realisation of the effect of a minerals hydrophobicity on flotation all those years ago has ...
view more2024117 · The optimum size range for traditional mechanical flotation cells is typically between 20 and 150 µm for metal sulfides. The flotation recovery decreases outside this range due to high turbulence within the cell for coarser particles and low bubble-particle collision probability for the finer end of the particle size spectrum.
