ABSTRACT:
A flotation apparatus has an array of flotation cells which are in serial fluid flow communication from a first to a last cell. Each cell is in overflow communication with an overflow froth receiving receptacle which preferably has a top lip of slightly varying height in each cell. Air inlet and mechanical agitation are provided for each cell and are so positioned to promote an upright circular fluid flow in each cell toward the froth receiving receptacle. Each cell has internal surfaces shaped and oriented to promote the upright circular fluid flow and to discourage the creation of reverse eddy currents within the cell.
