- Description
- We define a pneumatic foam as one in which gas is continuously sparged into a pool of surfactant-containing solution thereby enabling continuous production of gas-liquid foam. The applications of such foams are multifarious, but pneumatic foams that climb vertical columns form the basis of froth flotation for the recovery of mineral products and coal, foam fractionation proteins and peptides, and gas absorption processes.
