Operating principles
The Jameson Cell consistently produces fine bubbles and intense mixing between air and slurry. This means fast, efficient flotation. While the principle of using air bubbles to recover particles is the basis of the technology, it is the way air bubbles are generated and how the bubbles and particles interact that make Jameson Cells unique.
Flotation Cell
Column flotation deinking is a critical sub-system in paper recycling to produce the highest quality product at low cost. Among the benefits of column flotation are higher selectivity, smaller floor space requirement, lower capital cost and reduced operating and maintenance costs (Finch and Dobby, 1990).Vertical columns result in considerable floor space …

Nanobubbles increased the flotation rate constants of 600∼355, 355∼180, 180∼75, and 75∼0 microns size coal particles by 98.0%, 98.4%, 50.0% and 41.6%, …
1 Froth Flotation – Fundamental Principles
no flotation can occur. Contact between particles and bubbles can be accomplished in a flotation cell such as the one shown schematically in Figure 5. Figure 5: Simplified schematic of a conventional flotation cell. The rotor draws slurry through the stator and expels it to the sides, creating a suction that draws air down the shaft of the stator.
