Column flotation deinking is a critical sub-system in paper recycling to produce the highest quality product at low cost. Among the benefits of column flotation are higher selectivity, smaller floor space requirement, lower capital cost and reduced operating and maintenance costs (Finch and Dobby, 1990).Vertical columns result in considerable floor …
