Flotation Reagents & Collectors. Froth flotation is the most widely used industrial process for the separation of finely liberated minerals. The process involves the aeration of minerals in water in the presence of flotation reagents which facilitate the attachment of air bubbles to and levitation of select minerals.

A froth flotation process is used to concentrate copper ore. It is a two-stage process that involves one rougher stage and one cleaner stage. The cleaner tailings return to the rougher flotation. Both stages are nonreactive unit operations that operate at steady-state. The analytical profile of the entire flotation circuit is:

This process was called bulk oil flotation. The separation was possible by bubbles generated through three different methods: (i) the entrainment of air during mixing, (ii) the reduction of pressure to generate bubbles, and (iii) the addition of sulfuric acid to create carbon dioxide bubbles (Fuerstenau, Jameson and Yoon, 2007).

The flotation process is carried out in equipments, which are interconnected in predetermined arrangements that allow dividing the outputs of the systems into metal concentrate and tailings flows. Since the desired separation cannot be achieved in a single stage, various coupled stages are used. This is termed a "flotation circuit".
