Abstract
In this study, the authors have assessed a number of factors that effect the ability of activated carbon recovery by flotation, such as chemical foaming, concentration, air flow rate and flotation time. The results show that pine oils have the good ability to inform foaming (smooth and durable) and suitable for recovery of activated carbon powderin the flotation method. In addition, the combination of pine oil and CH3COOH with volume ratio 1:1 can achieve excellent ability of recovery activated carbon powder(98%) within 10 minutes.
