Flotation Performance and Gas Dispersion Properties in a Laboratory Flotation Cell

Flotation is a complex process that exhibits high dimensionality which makes modeling and optimization very challenging. One technique to alleviate the problem combine variables together into more informative ones. Bubble surface area flux air recovery are examples of reduction. Gas holdup also captures effect plurality including gas rate, bubble size, surfactant type, concentration. This work use dual flotation–conductivity cell explore relationship between dispersion properties, frother concentration flotation performance. Results demonstrate effectively captured rate better correlates
