PERFORMANCE OF A FLOTATION COLUMN FUZZY CONTROLLERThe pilot flotation column is a tube in acrylic of 80mm diameter by 3,2m height. The feed is introduced at about 1/3 of column height from the top and air is introduced some centimeters above the bottom end. Controlled variables are the air holdup in the collection zone (Jc), collection zon e height (H) and bias water flow rate (Q ).

Measurements of particle loading on bubbles in froth flotationThis work explores the measurement of particle loading on bubbles in the collection zone during flotation. Existing methods and instruments are critically reviewed to form a basis for developing a new bubble load meter. The new bubble load measuring device which is based on the Dyer (1995) and Seaman et al., (2004) concept is presented. It was noted that the Dyer (1995) concept as improved by ...
DEVELOPMENT OF INDIGENOUS COLUMN FLOTATION .As the size of the bubble plays a vital role in flotation process, extensive research was focused on controlling the bubble size. Conventional flotation cell has its own limitations in producing fine bubble as first developed flotation column during 1967, various aspects of column flotation technology were pursued by Finch and Dobby9.

Relationship between flotation operational factors and ...bubble coalescence could occur thus making the froth more stable. The increase in air rate also resulted in more solids entering the froth which led to reduced bubble coalescence. Further increases in air rate, however, increased the amount of turbulence in the system which destabilised the froth phase. A decrease in the stability of the froth was observed when the froth height was increased ...

Report on flotation pilot plant design and arrangementFrothers To achieve an adequate flotation, bubbles that rise to the top of the flotation cell must not break until they are skimmed off to collect the floated particles. This is the reason why nonionic surfactants are usually added to produce the desired stability of the froth. This may happen that a collector can act as a frother, such is the ...
