    Collector and frother are commonly used to induce the floatability of valuable minerals in flotation plants. These reagents can be added in a conditioner prior to flotation or stage distributed along the flotation banks. A review of the literature and some experimental results obtained from laboratory and full-scale trials indicate that the way flotation reagents are distributed down a flotation bank can positively influence the flotation response of coarse particles. This paper summarizes these observations, which show that the distribution of reagents is a potential tuning variable for the optimization of the flotation process.
