Abstract Spent potlining (SPL) consists of the carbon cathodes (1st cut), aluminosilicate refractories, and the insulation lining of Hall–Héroult cells (2nd cut) used in aluminum smelting. SPL is classified as hazardous material due to its high content in soluble fluoride salts and the presence of cyanides. The 1st cut contains considerable …
control of a flotation process are classified as follows: The tendency of the ore to have variable physical, metallurgical, and surface properties produces significant changes in a flotation circuit. The particle size range of the flotation feed can be substantial because of ore hardness changes and changes in the operation of the grinding circuit.

no flotation can occur. Contact between particles and bubbles can be accomplished in a flotation cell such as the one shown schematically in Figure 5. Figure 5: Simplified schematic of a conventional flotation cell. The rotor draws slurry through the stator and expels it to the sides, creating a suction that draws air down the shaft of the stator.
