dc.description.abstractDevelopments of new research tools in flotation studies, including bubble-particle attachment time efficiency and dynamic froth analysis, can help improve our understanding of particle-bubble interactions in flotation processes. In particular, the selection of new collectors and frothers, and their mixtures can provide a wide distribution of bubble sizes at their respective concentrations. In the literature, several studies have reported the effect of different frothers and collector mixtures on bubble characteristics like bubble size and critical coalescence concentration (CCC). The general trend obtained from these studies showed that the addition of frothers, along with collectors, which also act as frothers during flotation, resulted in finer bubbles and required lower concentrations of frothers, which in turn positively affected the flotation recoveries. In this study, an attempt was made to study fine-sized magnesite in the presence of sodium oleate (NaOL) and five different types of frothers (PPG600, PPG400, BTPG, BDPG, and MIBC). Bubble-particle attachment time with different sized capillary tubes and dynamic froth analysis values in a liquid-air system, along with flotation recoveries in a micro-flotation cell, were interpreted to show possible correlations and provide an optimum bubble/particle size ratio in the presence of different frothers.
