Application of Extended DLVO Theory: Modeling of Flotation and Hydrophobicity of Dodecane
The extended DLVO theory was used to develop a flotation model by considering both hydrodynamic and surface forces involved in the process. A stream function was used to estimate the kinetic energies for thinning the water films between bubbles and particles, which were compared with the energy bar...
