In a coal flotation circuit, 3½ to 4 minutes of residence time is needed for good recoveries. Mean retention time can be determined by using retention time distribution (RTD) testing or by using the formula: 7 τ = V/Q [1] in which V is the active volume of the cell and Q is the flow rate to the cell.

Abstract. The inefficiency in controlling the slurry/froth interface level of a scavenger column flotation stage was severely impairing the process performance of an iron mining company, increasing the iron content in the tailings to levels above 20% and, consequently, not meeting the company's iron recovery and pellet feed production targets.

The other type of flotation cells is a column cell. Column cells are tall round tanks that use compressed air to create air bubbles via spargers or cavitation tubes. These cells are used to perform mineral separations. Column cells do not use mechanical agitation (impellers). Mixing is achieved by the turbulence provided by the rising bubbles.
