Salerno et al. evaluated froth flotation efficiency for separating two polymers with similar density (but with different surface charges), namely PVC and PS [276]. It was concluded that the floatability of PVC was highly dependent on the pH, and in the pH range of 8–10, where PVC was more hydrophilic than PS, the separation was relatively ...

A new method for measuring froth recovery in industrial flotation cells is proposed. The technique allows measurement of the froth performance in a flotation cell directly, with minimum effect on cell operation. It is based on a combination of two published methods to measure froth recovery; viz., Savassi et al. (1997) and Vera et al. (2000).
