Froth stability is a major issue in froth flotation, and therefore, the factors affecting froth stability are being extensively researched [5], [6], [7]. A comprehensive review on froth and froth stability in flotation has been published more than two decades ago by Subrahmanyam and Forssberg [8]. However, there is no recent review available.

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 …

Understanding Froth Flotation. Froth flotation, often referred to as simply "flotation," is a highly effective mineral separation process that capitalizes on the inherent differences in surface properties among various minerals. This process begins with ore preparation, where the ore is crushed and ground into fine particles.

In a froth flotation system, particles may enter the froth phase by either true flotation or by mechanical means, such as entrainment or entrapment. While true flotation is selective and involves the attachment of a hydrophobic particle to an air bubble, the other mechanisms are non-selective and mostly depend on particle size and the ...
