Abstract:The flotation process characterization is typically based on the mineral properties and related to the feed particle size. Laboratory testing allows for the evaluation of the batch flotation kinetics, while plant surveys are carried out for the plant evaluation, and sometimes the rougher flotation stage is also characterized by kinetics, considering either the full sampling of the circuit or the short-cut method. Comparisons of plant and batch results are useful for identifying the scale-up factors. The kineti… Show more
