Advantages of the REFLUX Flotation Cell

The RFC is designed to enhance the hydrodynamics of flotation to achieve a significantly more efficient flotation process. These studies have confirmed the potential for this innovative technology to deliver on that promise and offer single-stage cleaning in place of up to ten conventional flotation cells.
