For this reason, although the same reasoning can be applied to the development of a cavern model for a mechanical flotation cell, the models themselves cannot be used. A cavern model has however been developed for a different mixing device having similar flow characteristics to those in flotation cells, namely jet mixers (Meyer and Etchells, 2007).

The relationship between the bubble diameter d b and the superficial gas velocity J g in the collection zone of a flotation column can be approximately given as: (5) d b ∝J 0.25 g. By observation, d b in the froth zone is also dependent on J g, however, a valid relationship is currently unknown.It can be concluded, however, that (6) d bO ∝J q g, where q>0.25. Thus, …

A sensitivity analysis of the parameters showed that two out of seven parameters were highly sensitive. The highly sensitive parameters are the exponential factor n of the equation for the overflowing bubble size, and the constant value a of the equation for the bursting rate. Although the other parameters showed a reasonably lower sensitivity than n and a, the results …

It is possible to increase the rise rate of the formed flotation aggregates, and thereby enhance the efficiency of flotation treatment via secondary saturation of the flotation cell with d b = 0.1-0.3 mm air bubbles. The air bubbles of 0.02-0.07 mm diameter float up in laminar flow regime but create light turbulence in the flotation cell.
