Design of Flotation Cells and Circuits
Until only a few years ago mechanical flotation machine capacity was limited to eight to 15 tons of ore per running foot per 24 hours, and this meant that a "small" 10,000 TPD mill needed in the neighborhood of 150 rougher cells, while a 30,000-ton mill would need about 500 rougher cells.
