Slope of Flotation Slurry Launders for Froth Flow
Launders should have high enough velocities to prevent particles from settling, or if they fall to the bottom, to keep them rolling and sliding. The depth of water should not be much over the diameter of the largest rolling particles. For concentrates and heavy gangues slopes should be increased 25—.

Fundamentals of froth flotation
Froth flotation is the most important mineral processing technology for the production of valuable mineral concentrates from which metals and minerals are obtained.
Prediction of the Ash Content of Flotation Concentrate Based on Froth
ABSTRACT The concentrate ash content is the most effective evaluation index in the flotation process. However, the ash content obtained by the current technology has a serious hysteresis. In this study, a real-time prediction system based on image processing and BP neural network modeling was established to monitor the flotation process. It will be beneficial to …

Mercury Ore Processing
A thickener and filter is required to dewater the flotation froth concentrate prior to drying and retorting, or chemical dissolution. In small plants the thickener may be eliminated to minimize tie-up of high grade concentrates. Pan Filters have a good application in small plants. Flotation Reagents
How Antimony is Processed by Flotation
While antimony concentrates assaying less than 50% antimony may be salable, such low-grade concentrates require special arrangements with the smelters. Smelter returns for antimony concentrates are based on a sliding scale which provides for 65% Sb content as the basis. Antimony payment is based on a short ton unit containing 20 lbs. antimony.

The free flow type "Sub-A" Flotation Machine with supercharged air is used due to the high tonnages that must be handled. Double overflow machines are used for the rapid removal of froth because a large proportion of …
3. Feature Extraction of Flotation Froth Images
1. Introduction. Flotation is known as froth flotation, and it is a physicochemical reaction process. Flotation is the process which is based on the differences of the surface property of solid materials to separate useful minerals and gangue by means of the buoyancy of air bubbles from ore pulp by this method to improve the concentrate grade [].In the production …
Flotation Tests with Homemade Flotation Equipment DIY
Filter-papers can be laid over the bottom of either of these funnels to collect the concentrates, and the vacuum beneath sucks out the water and oil of the froth. Such a filter can be placed under the froth-discharge of a flotation machine so that a fairly dry cake of concentrate is ready for further drying at the end of the flotation test.
