  1. FLOTATION frothers

  2. Gflotation= Gfinal- Ginitial = [sg - (sl+ lg)] A sg = sl+ lgcos when  = 0o, cos = 1, Gflotation= 0, no flotation when= 90o, cos = 0, G = -lg. fullflotation Thus, flotationreagentscan be classifiedinto • collector (decreases G) • frother (no ornegligablechange of G) • depressor (increases G)

  3. FROTHERS Role of frother 1. Gas dispersion 2. Froth formation 3. Speeding up flotation 4. Improvingselectivity of flotation (by interaction with collector)

  8. Other classifications of frothers Frothersclassification (Lekki and Laskowski, 1974)

  9. Properties of frothers CMC MIBC – metyloizobutylokarbinol CMC – criticalmicellizationconcentration Collector ions can be present in aqueous solution as free ions(a), premicellar species, (b)spherical micelles (c). Structures appear with increasing surfactantconcentration in aqueous solution. Symbol o denotes ion appositively charged to surfactantion

  10. CCC Properties of frothers DF250 Data of Finch, J.A., Nesset, J., Acuna, C., 2008, Role of frother on bubble production and behaviour in flotation, Miner. Eng., 21, 949–957. CCC95denotes 95% in Sauter mean bubble size reduction compared to mean bubble size in water only. Plotted by Kowalczuk, Ind. Eng.Chem. Res., 2013
