SELECTION OF MECHANICAL FLOTATION EQUIPMENT
Another advantage of the ank cell design is the ability to symmetrically alter the t froth surface areato suit the flotation duty at hand. This is normally done by adjusting the size of concentric crowders, and/or using different launder configurations. The net result is that the tank shape and design is for the intended flotation optimized duty.

A Review of Flotation Physical Froth Flow Modifiers
Therefore, a custom-made approach to flotation cell launder design is necessary to meet the duties observed/anticipated for each flotation cell within the bank. A change in feed ore conditions, e.g., if the new ore grade is lower than at the initial circuit design stage, it can result in low FCR in the bank of cells, which yields poor performance.

Flotation Center Launder Upgrade
Optimal flotation recovery is achieved when these two processes work efficiently in harmony. The center launder upgrade is composed of three parts: Center launder; Outer crowder; Froth cone; Each tailor-made for your site to address your specific conditions. The center launder radically reduces the froth transport distance to the launder lip.

In minerals processing, choosing a suitable concentrate launder design in separation by flotation requires a number of issues to be considered. Dr Rob Coleman of Outotec Pty Ltd explains.
Concentrate launder design: what is right for your operation?
As with the internal peripheral launder the froth is pushed to the launder by the froth crowder. This design, however, provides more froth surface area. The external peripheral launder does not consume cell volume, so the effective cell volume for flotation is also higher. This launder is predominantly used on smaller TankCells.

Evaluation of flotation circuits design using a novel approach
The froth zone recovery was described as a function of the solids flowrate entering the froth by true flotation (S F), launder design (ξ F) and froth residence time (τ F). The effect of launder design was quantitatively represented by the mean froth transport distance in a flotation cell (Yianatos et al., 2020). (1) R F = f (S F, ξ F, τ F)
