The standard practice on coal in England has been to use celltocell "SubA" Flotation Machines of the double overflow type. Several hundred of the large No. 30 cells (100 cu. ft./cell) are in use. Supercharging is not generally used. Flotation is carried out at low solids, usually under 10% dilution.
