Summary
"Froth Flotation: A Century of Innovation comprehensively describes state-of-the-art research and practice in mineral froth flotation a century after its introduction. Recognized experts from around the world provide in-depth coverage on many facets of flotation, including the historical aspects; fundamentals; chemistry; flotation cells, modeling, and simulation; and flotation plant practice. This commemorative volume is an invaluable reference for industry professionals, researchers, and graduate students."--BOOK JACKET.
