An overview of oil–water separation using gas flotation systems

Conclusion. Gas flotation is an effective method for removing oil-grease from waste water. Higher separation efficiency can be achieved by mainly increasing the collision and adhesion (capture) efficiencies. Collision probability can be increased by increasing the amount of gas used for flotation and reducing size of the gas bubbles.Web

Analysis of attachment process of bubbles to high-density oil

The key mechanism of oil flotation technology lies heavily in the attachment success rate between the generated air bubbles and the hydrophobic oil layer [6], [7]. Thus the increase in the probability of bubble-oil attachment would lead to a higher removal of oil contaminant attributed to the buoyancy of the bubbles that could aid the flotation ...Web
