DetailsMineral carrying rates across the pulp-froth interface in the range of 1.4-3.2 tph/m 2 and bubble surface coverage between 7 and 22 %, have been determined in large rougher flotation cells (100 ...
DetailsThe flotation plant flowsheet simulation models provide an efficient way to assess existing circuit operation, further optimize its operating conditions and to evaluate different circuit reconfigurations. When planning a new flotation plant design, simulation models can be used to design the circuit configuration and cell sizing.
DetailsTankCell flotation units are built to last, with components and electrical equipment selected for maximum operating life. For instance, Outotec rotors and stators have proven to be the most wear-resistant available. The wide range of cell sizes enables a compact, economical, and efficient plant design without the
DetailsStackCell ® High-Intensity Flotation Superior metallurgical performance contributing to a more profitable and sustainable mining operation. StackCell flotation reduces conventional flotation residence time requirement by 75 to 85% and increases selective recovery of fine particles and slow floating minerals, which increases profitability and improves …
