Annotation: In scientific and technical literature, we often encounter the term flotation, which is used to purify water from organic substances and solid suspended matter, separate mixtures, and accelerate settling in chemical, oil refining, food, and other industries. Flotation is one of the main technological processes for enriching most minerals by separating a mixture of finely ground particles. Flocculation processes have long been successfully used in ore beneficiation processes, and perhaps the greatest theoretical and practical experience has been accumulated in this direction. Selective flocculation is the most promising method for concentrating and enriching minerals, extracting especially valuable substances from raw materials.

Keywords: flotation, foaming agents, medium regulators, xanthogenates, dithiophosphates, mercaptans, collectors.
