3.1. Flotation cell set-up and flotation conditions. To run pilot tests, a 19 cm diameter and 130 cm height flotation column was assembled . The flotation column has two main regions: a collection region, where the pulp slurry is in contact with gas bubbles, and a ~15 cm height aeration region, where the pulp is re-circulated in tangential ...
Mechanical flotation cells utilise an impellor to agitate the slurry and produce turbulent regions for bubble particle attachment, whereas in pneumatic flotation cells pulp and air are introduced together into the cell through a nozzle, also termed a downcomer, that promotes bubble-particle contact (Gupta and Yan, 2016).

In the conventional flotation cell, the detachment of particles from the bubbles due to turbulence is the main reason for the decline in the coarse particle recovery (De et al., 2007, Fuerstenau et al., 2007).However, turbulence is imperative in the flotation cell to bring about bubble particle collision, keep particles in suspension, and disperse …
The influence of flotation variables (Fig. 1) in varying degrees, and their interactions – on the one side, and distinct tendency of plant operators for achieving the process stability and products quality – on the other side, are conflicted in the domain of process control.Therefore, the control of such a process is highly specific and very …

Optimal mineral recovery in a flotation circuit depends on the capacity to adapt to metallurgical variability in the ore being processed. It is possible that some banks of flotation cells might not be recovering ore at their maximum levels due to air flow, feed, mechanical, hydraulic, reagent imbalances. Recognizing the need for a solution that ...
