2022.12.1 3.2.1. Bubble size. Smaller bubbles induce higher probability of bubble-particle collision and attachment and strongly contribute to quartz flotation in the reverse cationic flotation of iron ore. On the other hand, finer bubbles have larger interfacial area, causing water to accumulate into the foam.

ABSTRACT Recently, beneficiation of iron from low-grade ores with high impurities has been a matter of discussion. Flotation is one of the most effective technologies for the upgrading of low-grade, finely grained iron ores. This method can also be applied to reduce the impurities content in magnetite concentrates obtained using wet low- and high
