Foam flotation separates materials based on their affinity for water using air bubbles. It has been used for over a century in mining and is now used to treat contaminated water. In mining, a reagent is added to enhance hydrophobic properties, and air bubbles carry the desired compounds to the surface. In treating contaminated water, […]
A flotation belt is a buoyant device worn around the waist during water exercises to maintain correct posture and relieve lower back pain. It is commonly used in water aerobics and can be adjustable, but should not be used as a flotation device. The belt is usually made of durable foam and should be worn […]
Buoyancy remodeling is a bodywork technique performed in warm water by two masseurs, designed to promote range of motion and release tension and stress in the muscles. It can help with emotional distress and is suitable for people with a wide range of physical ability levels. Floating is a bodywork technique performed in warm water […]
Dissolved air flotation is a process used to treat and clarify water contaminated with fats, oils, and greases. Air bubbles are introduced to bind to contaminants, causing them to float to the surface. Flocculants are used for heavier impurities. The process removes about 80% of impurities but does not completely purify the water. Dissolved air […]
