Flotation Chemistry Fundamentals & Practice
Date: 16th November 2025
Time: 9am-4pm
Location: Vineyard Hotel
This is a short course delivered by the UQ’s Associate Professor Liza Forbes, that covers the crucial role of flotation reagents in mineral resource recovery. The course combines an accessible overview of theory and places it in context with plant practice, with examples from real-world flotation operations.
The course covers topics such as:
• Nature of surfaces in flotation and how they can be manipulated
• Identifying and understanding key components of mineral systems
• Understanding flotation reagents and how they work
• Talking to reagent suppliers and asking the right questions
• Case studies to illustrate practical applications
• Introducing a brand-new course module - Understanding Reagent Dosage in Flotation Plants
WHO IS THE COURSE FOR?
The course is primarily aimed at flotation and minerals processing practitioners, but is also recommended for reagent manufacturers and anyone else who seeks to gain a better understanding of this challenging discipline.
