Classification of foam separation techniques

Answer 1

Foam separation. Foam separation is a chemical process which falls into a category of separation techniques called "Adsorptive bubble separation methods". It is further divided into froth flotation and foam fractionation.

All techniques that may be classified at present as “adsorptive bubble separation methods” are described ; their relationship to one another is displayed in a schematic diagram which is based on a previous publication. of this adsorptive process, rather than on the basis of whether or not a foam is formed.
