Entrainment of Gangue Minerals in Froth Flotation
Generally, entrainment is a two-step transfer process [17,18,19,20], one at the upper layer of the pulp to the flotation froth, and the other from froth to the concentrate.For the first step, the literature has reported three accepted mechanisms, which are boundary layer theory [21,22,23], bubble wake theory [22,23,24], and bubble swarm …Web

Flotation Froth
Froth flotation is a long established technique in mineral processing. Extensive discussion of flotation can be found in the book by Leja (1982); see also recent work by Fecko et al.

Flotation Froth
In fact, the frother creates conditions for froth formation. The flotation froth is a three-phase system. The frother concentrates at the interface of water and air bubbles, forming an envelope around the bubbles, which prevents them from colliding or touching. Frothers also lower the surface tension of the water.Web
