Froth pumps use high pressure to create a froth or foam from the slurry, which
helps stabilize the solid particles and prevent them from settling into the bottom
of the pump or pipeline. This makes it easier to transport the slurry over long
distances without clogging the pump or pipeline.
Froth pumps are typically used in the flotation process, where they are used to
create a froth from the slurry that contains valuable minerals. The foam is then
collected, and the beneficial minerals are extracted. Froth pumps are also used
in tailings treatment, transporting slurry containing waste material and water
from the mine to the tailings pond.
Froth pumps are generally more expensive than other types because they
require more energy to create the froth. However, they are essential for many
mining operations because they can effectively handle materials that would
otherwise be difficult to transport.
