Development of a new generation flotation cell and monitoring of air bubbles

Abstract The flotation process allows particles and oil to separate from wastewater with high efficiency. Therefore, it is widely used in engineering a multidisciplinary field of study. In this study, new generation method developed as an alternative conventional methods. Some experiments are conducted determine the performance system. It known that air-demand rate directly improves performance. For purpose, maximum aeration efficiency bubble properties cell supported by newly head gated conduit examined. A pilot-scale system installed for experimental With help resolution high-speed cameras, parameters such air density, size, dead zone volume penetration depth determined. addition, images recorded during examined professional image processing techniques. Experimental results showed Froude number, jet plunge angle water levels have significant impact on
