Jun 25, 2022Based on the difference in the wettability of different mineral surfaces to water, hydrophobic particles tend to adhere to bubbles and float to the liquid surface, while hydrophilic particles will break off suspension or sink into the water after colliding with bubbles, thereby achieving extraction of silica sand.

Flotation experiments carried out using small-scale flotation devices (e.g. Hallimond tube, etc.) equipped with either a single capillary or a porous frit may be very difficult to compare. They may give different flotation kinetics because of bubble coalescence in the latter case at C < CCC hence resulting in much larger bubble sizes.

It is known that high bubble-particle detachment probability is the main reason for the poor recovery by true flotation in some flotation operations [70, 71]. Turbulent flow in the pulp is beneficial to bubble-particle collision and attachment, but the turbulent effect can also cause particles with high inertia to detach from bubbles, thus ...

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 methods for ore beneficiation.

For silica particles of chemically induced hydrophobicity in dodecylamine solutions, gas holdup increased sharply with solid content, reaching a maximum at ∼2% w/w solids. The results suggest that for hydrophobic particles to act as bubble nucleation sites, macroscopic contact angles do not have to be greater than 90° under dynamic conditions.

Flotation is a separation process, in which one component of a heterogeneous mixture of solid or liquid particles in an aqueous medium selectively attaches to gas bubbles or oil droplets, forming aggregates of lower specific gravity, which in turn rise to the surface of liquid in a flotation cell and. form a froth layer there.

Flotation is an independent and effective method to remove yellow spots in quartz sand. It has excellent impurity removal effects on river sand, fine sand, vein quartz ore and quartzite ore, and has been widely used. Before the flotation method is used to produce quartz sand, the beneficiation test of quartz sand is often needed.

The chemicals are used to make the desired material hydrophobic and the air is used to carry the material to the surface of the flotation cell. When the hydrophobic material and the air bubbles collide they become attached to each other. The bubble rises to the surface carrying the desired material with it.
