In froth flotation, froth recovery is a key factor as it quantifies the effect that the froth has on the overall cell recovery. Froth recovery is affected by a number of variables, including froth stability, particle size and density, and the operating conditions of the flotation cell. Despite its importance, modelling froth recovery is challenging due to the large number of competing effects involved. In this paper, we present a model for froth recovery that takes into account the effects of detachment and subsequent transport of particles. The model is phenomenological and is derived from a set of coupled partial differential equations used to describe both liquid and particle motion within a froth. An analytical algebraic solution is obtained for the froth recovery by making a number of assumptions, which are discussed and justified in the paper. This model is related to a previous model produced by the authors, in which froth recovery was described in terms of a constant particle detachment fraction. Conversely, this enhanced model includes an improved description for particle detachment behaviour during coalescence events, allowing for a variable particle detachment fraction. The key parameters in the model are two dimensionless groups. The first group combines the particle settling velocity, the air addition rate and froth stability parameters such as air recovery and the change in bubble size over the froth, while the second key dimensionless group is the ratio of the surface loading on the incoming bubbles to the maximum surface loading. This model is compared to experimental results and is shown to accurately describe the evolution of the froth recovery behaviour down a bank of cells in response to the decreasing froth stability.
