Different samples have been prepared from different products in Chadormalu iron ore concentrator plant: Low intensity magnetite separators concentrate (magnetite concentrate), reverse flotation tail (final hematite concentrate), flotation concentrate (apatite concentrate), final tail (L.I.M.S. tail + reverse flotation concentrate+ apatite flotation tail). The samples were used for rare eart...

-Flotation coefficients are usually determined from data obtained under high pressure (cell bottom) conditions. A power series expansion is proposed for correction to atmospheric pressure (meniscus) conditions. The same expansion may be applied to the concentration correction of flotation coefficients. From sedimentation experiments with polymer solutions in the analytical ultracentrifuge, we c...

The Rancho Flotation Bed provides hydrostatic support with maximum pressures over bony prominences of 15 to 25 mm Hg (measured with a pneumatic pressure transducer). This is generally below the levels normally quoted as conducive to the development of ischaemia. Clinical experience has shown the bed to be a successful aid to nursing by eliminating the need to turn the patients for pressure reas...

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 ...
