attributed to a poor understanding of the fundamental mechanisms. A detailed review
of the literature revealed that the mechanisms of flotation are fairly well understood in
mineral flotation application but that the transfer of knowledge to water treatment
application is poor, particularly regarding the differences between particle and floc
flotation. [Continues.]
