Froth flotation - Wikipedia

Froth flotation is a process for selectively separating of hydrophobic materials from hydrophilic.This is used in mineral processing, paper recycling and waste-water treatment industries. Historically this was first used in the mining industry, where it was one of the great enabling technologies of the 20th century.

Advanced Process Control of grinding & flotation in ...

Usually, the grinding circuit contains at least two interconnected mills with material classifiers (e.g. cyclones) separating the fine material from the coarse (that then goes for regrinding). The process is energy intensive with power consumption of roughly 20 to 30 MW and feed throughputs of 2,500 to 3,000 t/hr. Process variables are mill ...

Model Predictive Control for Froth Flotation Plants

Disturbances acting on the flotation circuit will have a negative impact on the performance and, consequently on the economical result. The variation of the feed into the circuit is the main disturbance that we are facing here. Figure 2 illustrates the feed variability using data from two different days. The two

Copper Flotation - Mineral Processing & Metallurgy

This method is useful when the feed to the flotation plant contains an appreciable quantity of fines, which, due generally to oxidation through exposure, require different treatment from the unweathered part of the ore.

Chapter 18. Feed Milling Processes

Within 20 seconds of entering the pellet mill, feed goes from an air-dry (about 10-12 percent moisture) condition at ambient temperature, to 15-16 percent moisture at 80-90°C. During subsequent compression and extrusion through holes in a ring' die, friction further increases feed temperature to nearly 92°C. Pellets discharged onto a screen ...
