El
libro presenta una visión general de los
conocimientos contemporáneos en el campo de la flotación. El
libro resume la teoría básica de
la flotación, se analizan y se sistematizan los procesos básicos que
ocurren en
el sistema de flotación. Además todo el material está estructurado en
manera
cómoda para el uso por un estudiante igual que a un docente. El libro
está
dirigido a estudiantes de universidades y politécnicos, estudiantes de
carreras, conectadas con concentración de minerales, trabajadores
ingeniero-técnicos de fábricas de la flotación, científicos en
organizaciones
investigatorias.
