1 Froth Flotation – Fundamental Principles

For example if 20% of the water entering a flotation cell is carried into the froth then up to 20% of the fine particles entering the cell will be entrained The entrainment of coarser particles will be less than 20% due to their greater ability to drain from the froth Get price
