"The challenge that creates in flotation is that a lot of factors can interfere with the surface chemistry; I've known of flotation plants that were upset for weeks due to something that was present in the parts-per-million range. It's a continuously changing environment, and often chemicals are an afterthought.
Froth flotation is a physicochemical process that is used to separate fine mineral particles from aqueous suspensions by selective attachment of some types of minerals to air bubbles. Froth flotation is the most important mineral processing technology for the production of valuable mineral concentrates from which metals and minerals are obtained. Practically all metals in …
High salt content in plant water has been found to remove the need for the use of a frother in the flotation system and lower reagent consumption. However, frothers are still necessary as only small quantities of frother are needed for the same effect that large concentrations of salt would have during flotation (Quinn et al., 2007).
