The selective separation of hydrophobic coal particles from hydrophilic gangue minerals by froth flotation dates back to the 1920s. Prior to this, commercial applications of froth flotation were limited only to ores and minerals finer than 100 µm in size (Nguyen and Schulze, 2003).In coal flotation, particles finer than 500 µm are commonly employed due to their natural …
