Froth Floation | Hoffman & Lamson Solutions

What Is Froth Flotation? Froth flotation, also called ore flotation when used in mining applications, is a method for physically separating particles by having air bubbles that selectively adhere to specific surfaces. The particles with attached air bubbles are carried to the surface and removed. Froth flotation is one of the most widely used ...
