the Hydrofloat® cell has the following design characteristics: • the process capacity is determined by the cross-sectional area: 20 tonnes/h-m 2 – 30 tonnes/h-m . • there is a higher efficiency of flotation air consumption: approximately 10% of the air consumed by conventional flotation cells.

• a high flotation rate (kinetics) for mineral particles in the 30-100 micron (140-400 mesh) size range, and • the relative absence of gangue fines (slimes), which often degrade the flotation process. 2) Flash flotation differs from convention flotation (and unit cells) in that not all feed is kept in suspension.
