Notes:
The effects of impeller speed, air flow rate, cell concentration, agitator size and cell volume on the recovery of aluminium particles have been studied in a KHD Humboldt Wedge AG machine, using alkyl benzene sodium sulphonate paste as collector and pine oil as frother. The recovery yield increased with increasing impeller speed, air flow rate, cell concentration and cell volume, up to a certain range, whereafter it decreased. A decrease in the recovery yield was observed on increasing the agitator size. A mathematical model has been developed to correlate percentage recovery with the above variables.
