of the International Workshopon Flotation and Flocculationheld in Hawaii, July 2002. Theparticipants included some ofthe most pre-eminent expertsin this field throughoutindustry and academia. Theorganisers were Professor JohnRalston, (Chair), University ofSouth Australia, Professor JanMiller, University of Utah andProfessor Jorge Rubio,Universidade Federal do RioGrande do Sul.

Over the last decade therehave been major scientificadvances in understanding thechemistry and physics ofbubble and particle surfaces,modelling bubble-particleencounter processes in varioushydrodynamic regimes, andpredicting the interactionbehaviour of polymers withparticle surfaces. Theseadvances have taken placealongside major engineeringinvestigations of theperformance and design of

industrial flotation/flocculationcells.

This book is highly focused,with transcripts of discussionsessions aimed at identifyingexactly how practical andworkable models can bedeveloped to reduce thepresent uncertainty inherent inthese vital separationprocesses.

Major topics include:

♦ Bridging flocculation inwastewater and fine particletreatment processes

♦ B u b b l e - p a r t i c l eencounters/models in flotation

♦ Flotation cells and theiroperation

♦ Diagnostic processchemistry in flotation andflocculation
