In 1923 with a combined gravity and bulk flotation flowsheet using coal tar and pine oil as reagents the grade of the concentrate was only % Cu but by 1925 with selective flotation using xanthate pine oil and lime under very controlled conditions necessitated by the soluble salts in the water the flotation concentrates averaged % Cu

·Rougher froth concentrates are cleaned once in a Sub A Cell to Cell Flotation Machine Cleaner tailings are returned to the roughers by gravity Generally because of the large volume of froth concentrate to be removed in the roughers and cleaners a double overflow machine is used
·The flotation process for the concentration of ores is a method by means of which one or more of the minerals in the ore usually the valuable ones are picked up by means of a liquid film and floated at the surface of a mass of fluid pulp Here they are separated from the other minerals which remain immersed in the body of the pulp In general the minerals which
·Froth flotation Wikipedia the free encyclopedia Froth flotation is a process for selectively to the surface forming a froth is removed and the concentrate Rotary vacuum drum filter; Scrubber; Spinning » More detailed Froth flotation grinding mills Copper ore ball mill process Gold Froth Flotation Summary For a were two types of vacuum
·The flotation of Cu Mo sulfide ores requires the use of flotation agents which are different for the inherently hydrophobic molybdenite and hydrophilic copper sulfides

·EXPLANATION OF THE FROTH FLOTATION PROCESS IN DETAIL The main principle of the froth flotation process depends on the differences in the wetting properties of the sulfide ore and the impurities which may or may not be non sulfide ores Figure 1 Froth flotation cell[4] The components of a flotation system are figure 1
·Under −1 kpa vacuum condition it only takes 168 s to eliminate 20 cm flotation froth height with combined mechanical impact while it takes 453 s under ambient pressure indicating that under
·A recent spate of solid/liquid separation activity and requirement for reliable and cost effective dewatering equipment in Australia has highlighted the suitability of the DELKOR Horizontal Vacuum Belt Filter HBF for this very application
·1 1 Froth Flotation Fundamental Principles Froth flotation is a highly versatile method for physically separating particles based on differences in the ability of air bubbles to selectively adhere to specific mineral surfaces in a mineral/water slurry The particles with attached air bubbles are then carried to the surface and removed while the particles that
·Techno Analysis of Solid Liquid Separation of Iron Ore Concentrates Through Vacuum Disc Filters The results show that high froth stability originating from a flotation process has a negative
The results show that high froth stability originating from a flotation process has a negative impact on the filtration and dewatering of flotation concentrates In this study the flotation of fine coal using saline water produced a highly stable froth with a high air recovery resulting in a short cake formation time and a high final cake
·Gold flotation The Froth Flotation Method is means separating minerals according to their different physical and chemical properties According to classification the flotability of gold and silver minerals is included in the first category of natural and non ferrous heavy metal sulfides characterized by low surface wettability and easy flotation which can be

·Coal froth from the flotation was transferred to a 500 mL measuring cylinder to be settled Filtration of coal froth and coal slurry was conducted by a vacuum filter at a vacuum of 40 kPa The vacuum filter was instrumented to record the filtrate weight against time Effect of froth stability on dewatering of coal flotation concentrates
·The froth stability was measured in both the froth formation and froth decay processes by maximum froth height froth half life time and water recovery The results show that fine particles of moderate hydrophobicity contributed most to maximum froth height in the froth formation process and were most favorable for flotation
·Froth stability is a critical factor for flotation and even a small decrease in froth stability causes a decrease in the recovery of desirable minerals Hadler and Cilliers 2009 Hadler et al 2012 Kowalczuk and Drzymala 2017a Kowalczuk and Drzymala 2017 Although frothers improve flotation rate and recovery a very high frother
·The froth zone further concentrates the collected particles by reducing the recovery of entrained gangue mineral particles to the concentrate stream leading to an improved selectivity and recovery of the flotation process In general variations in flotation conditions could result in different rheological behaviours of mineral particles in
