Popis:	This paper discusses the methods used in the design of flotation plants, including benchscale batch and locked cycle tests and pilot plant trials. The methods used to establish appropriate flotation circuits as well as the interpretation of the test work data are also discussed in this paper. Careful and appropriate sample selection must be followed by equally carefully designed and executed flotation test work if a successful outcome is to be achieved. These steps are detailed and the correct use of each type of test and the information which can be obtained is described. Practical design considerations such as flotation time, type, number and size of flotation cells, and the means of froth transport are all important and appropriate test work can guide decisions on all these factors.
