Of Column Flotation Cells

The capacity of a flotation column is limited by the amount of bubble surface available to carry the particles into the froth launder since the specific surface area defined as the ratio of froth surface to the volume of pulp held is about one order of magnitude less in flotation columns compared with conventional cells

Flotation is a science that brings together many complicated variables factors include knowledge of mineral structure chemicals temperature technical skills of the operator and dependability of the flotation cell read on to learn more about flotation cells its uses and the different types of flotation cells

1133 flotation equipment column cells have been developed over the past 30 years as an alternative to mechanically agitated flotation cells the major operating difference between column and mechanical cells is the lack of agitation in column cells that reduces energy and maintenance costs

The other type of flotation cells is a column cell column cells are tall round tanks that use compressed air to create air bubbles via spargers or cavitation tubes these cells are used to perform mineral separations column cells do not use mechanical agitation impellers mixing is achieved by the turbulence provided by the rising bubbles

Column flotation efd is the world leader in column flotation technology with over 900 installations columns are used for floating wellliberated ores typically they produce higher grade and have lower power costs than conventional cells applications include roughers scavengers cleaners

Contact cells flotation columns these proven technologies are designed to achieve your objectives quickly and efficiently and provide you with flotation options to increase your profitability column flotation flotation columns work on the same basic principle as mechanical flotation cells mineral separation takes place in an agitated
