Over the past few decades, the need to process more minerals while lowering capital costs has led to an increase in the size of flotation cells, e.g., 0.03 m3 to 1000 m3. However, this increase has created new challenges in the operation and design of industrial flotation cells, particularly in terms of froth removal, because the distance the …

3.4. Effect of cell hydrodynamics on flotation performance. Overall recovery (R O) in a flotation cell is a function of recovery in the collection (R C) and froth (R f) phase, Eq. (4), ( Dobby, 1984 ): (4) R o = R f R c R f R c + 1 - R C. The drivers of recovery are very different in these two phases.

The first corrective reaction is to raise the pulp level or add air to the cells to quickly increase the overflow. As a band aid solution this is correct, but as the ultimate correction it is not. The purpose of the air is to provide the medium that the collector attaches and to provide a surface for the mineral to be floated away on.
