Froth Flotation is a very important process in the field of mineral processing which is utilized for the purpose of extraction of minerals from Ore. It is a part of surface chemistry in which we selectively separate the minerals from the unwanted material. This process is used in a variety of industries and is very crucial in each one of them.

The reagent dosing and air feed are other parameters that need to be controlled. Reagents and air are essential parameters for the recovery process, since both are used to collect the valuable material in the flotation cell and separate it from the tailings (gangue or unwanted material). We distinguish two kinds of reagents,

2. **Flotation Reagents**: Various reagents are used in flotation to control the surface properties of minerals. These include collectors, frothers, and modifiers. Collectors are chemicals that selectively bind to target minerals, making them hydrophobic. Frothers create stable bubbles, while modifiers can control pH and other factors.
