CFD model of a self-aerating flotation cell

1.. IntroductionFlotation is an important process in the minerals industry and most flotation is carried out using mechanically agitated cells ranging in volume up to 300 m 3.Separation of the particles of valuable minerals from the ore is achieved when particles of the valuable minerals preferentially attach to air bubbles and are floated to the surface …

CFD model of a self-aerating flotation cell

The effect of impeller speed on the air flow in a self-aerated Denver laboratory flotation cell was investigated using computational modelling.Air is induced into the slurry by the impeller's rotating action. The rate of air flow is determined by the suction pressure created by the impeller, the hydrostatic head of the slurry and the frictional …

Flotation Circuits. Flotation circuits are typically comprised of rougher, scavenger and cleaner flotation banks. Rougher and scavenger banks are focused on recovery and thus provide maximum residence time. Rougher banks can be large with the number of cells being 5 or greater. Scavenger cells are the last line of defense for avoiding losses.
