Abstract
A flotation cell featuring a mixing pipe which enters the suspension essentially vertically, follows the point of air intake, and generally receives the entire suspension quantity per flotation cell, the injector of the flotation cell is offset sideways relative to the vertical center axis of the round container cross-section and away from the side on which the foam removal opening and the liquid drain opening are located. The mixing pipe (1) enters the suspension only for a distance such that its discharge opening, mouth (2), is located at least at one-half the height of the level of the overflow edge (7) of the foam removal channel (8), figured from the container bottom. The liquid drain opening (9) is preferably provided in the immediate vicinity of the container bottom, with a cover plate (11) extending across the length of the flotation cell and forming a drain channel (12) into which proceeds the clean liquid through an upper (14) and a lower (13) slot.
