Pilot Plant Froth Flotation
The separation process of froth flotation is a primary method of
creating a high-valued concentrate. Conventional flotation equipment
from both Denver and Wemco equipment companies is available for lab and
pilot plant studies. Column flotation testing is also available on
Diester Flotaire and MTU packed cloumn. Prior to pilot plant testing,
flotation parameters such as reagents, conditioning time, pH, and stages
are defined at lab scale. In conjunction with the flotation studies,
mineralogy, surface chemistry, and liberation determination are made to
define feed parameters.
