Modeling Bubble Coarsening in Froth Phase from First Principles
Between two neighboring air bubbles in a froth (or foam), a thin liquid film (TLF) is formed. As the bubbles rise upwards, the TLFs thin initially due to the capillary pressure created by curvature changes. As the film thicknesses (H) reach approximately 200 nm, the disjoining pressure created by …

Validation and Application of a First Principle Flotation Model
… from the basic mechanisms involved in the bubble-particle and bubble-bubble interactions occurring in flotation. It is a kinetic model based on the premise that the energy barrier (E1) for bubble-particle interaction can be reduced by increasing the kinetic energy (Ek) for bubble-particle …

Development of a turbulent flotation model from first principles
… in the mining industry. In this process, air bubbles are introduced at the bottom of a particulate suspension (pulp), so that bubbles coated with hydrophobic particles rise to the top and form a froth phase while hydrophobic particles stay in suspension. The selectivity of the flotation …
