Froth flotation is a physicochemical separation technique that exploits the difference in the surface wettability of mineral particles (Wills and Finch, 2016).From a heterogeneous mixture of solids, hydrophobic particles are made to attach to gas bubbles and subsequently carried to the froth phase and recovered as a froth product (typically the value mineral concentrate), while hydrophilic ...
