Floatation was the process that transformed the non-ferrous mining industry and the industries and economies of the world. It was an improbable process; nobody could have imagined 100 years ago that floating high specific gravity particles on water would be the basis of one of the world's great technologies. This book tells the story of the early days of flotation and is as much about the engineers, managers and financiers who supported the experiments and built the plants as it is about the technology that was developed. Flotation practitioners will enjoy reading about the history of flotation machines, the ingenuity applied and the competitive tension between the manufacturers.

The past 30 years have seen the emergence of a growing desire worldwide that positive actions be taken to restore and protect the environment from the degrading effects of all forms of pollution – air, water, soil, and noise. Since pollution is a direct or indirect consequence of waste, the seemingly idealistic demand for “zero discharge” can be construed as an unreal- tic demand for zero waste. However, as long as waste continues to exist, we can only attempt to abate the subsequent pollution by converting it to a less noxious form. Three major questions usually arise when a particular type of pollution has been identi?ed: (1) How serious is the pollution? (2) Is the technology to abate it available? and (3) Do the costs of abatement justify the degree of abatement achieved? This book is one of the volumes of the Handbook of Environmental Engineering series. The principal intention of this series is to help readers formulate answers to the last two questions above. The traditional approach of applying tried-and-true solutions to speci?c pollution p- blems has been a major contributing factor to the success of environmental engineering and has accounted in large measure for the establishment of a “methodology of pollution control. ” However, the realization of the ever-increasing complexity and interrelated nature of current environmental problems renders it imperative that intelligent planning of pollution abatement systems be undertaken.

th The technologyoffroth flotation, invented in the early 20 century was first used for the concentration ofsulfide minerals. Since then it has been applied for the processing of many nonsulfide ores as well, including oxides, carbonates, silicates, soluble minerals like halite and sylvite and energy minerals like coal and bitumen. In recent years it has been used for several nonmineral applications, such as waste water treatment, deinking ofpaper for recycling and resource recovery from industrial wastes he technology continues to grow with new applications reportedevery year. Flotation is based on chemical phenomena occurring at the interfaces, solid/water and air/water. Surface Chemistry principles have played a significant role in the development of flotation technology. Knowledge ofaqueous solution chemistry and electrochemistry has added to our understanding ofthe reactions in flotation systems. ProfessorJan Leja's bookhas well served researchers and students as theytried to understand the chemistry of flotation, and it is a significant contribution to the advancement ofknowledge. However, since the book was first published, new research techniques and ever growing information have made an update necessary. The revised edition compiled by Dr. S. R. Rao has brought together fundamental aspects ofthe chemistryofflotation and how they apply to practical systems. It should serve all who are working in the area of flotation and interested inexploring new applications offlotation technology.
