Froth Floation | Hoffman & Lamson Solutions
What Is Froth Flotation? Froth flotation, also called ore flotation when used in mining applications, is a method for physically separating particles by having air bubbles that selectively adhere to specific surfaces. The particles with attached air bubbles are carried to the surface and removed. Froth flotation is one of the most widely used ...
Coarse chalcopyrite recovery in a universal froth flotation machine
A new hybrid froth flotation machine recovers particles with a wide size range. • Coarse particles are recovered in a fluidized bed. • Fines and ultra-fines are recovered in a high-shear in-line contactor.
Flotation Machine
The mineral-laden bubbles move from the separation zone to the pulp level and are carried forward to the overflow lip by the crowding action of succeeding bubbles. To facilitate the quick removal of mineral-laden froth, "Sub-A" Flotation Machines are equipped with froth paddles.

Modelling for froth flotation control: A review
Advanced flotation controllers based on froth image analysis have been developed in recent years. Machine vision can, for example, determine some characteristics of the froth surface at the top of a flotation cell, such as the number of bubbles, bubble size, bubble shape, density, speed and stability (Fu and Aldrich, 2019).
