After the pulp and flotation reagent are fully mixed, they are sent to the flotation column through the central feeding device. The pulp is slowly descended under the action of gravity, and the compressed air is dispersed into a large number of tiny bubbles through the inflator, which are evenly distributed on the entire section of the column and rise slowly.

This work explores efficiency improvements in the copper flotation stage, a complex nonlinear, multivariable process subject to numerous perturbations. The primary objective is to design a fractional-order PID (FOPID) control strategy and a fractional-order model reference adaptive control (FOMRAC) system. The parameters for these controllers are optimized using …

Air Distribution System: This system introduces air into the flotation cell. It may include air spargers, pipes, or tubes that release air bubbles into the pulp. Froth Removal System: Once the valuable minerals are attached to the air bubbles, they form a froth layer at the top of the flotation cell. A mechanism for removing this froth is ...
