Abstract

In this study, floatability rate of aluminum (Al) powders was analyzed for the purpose of separating valuable resources from residual materials in waste photovoltaic (PV) solar cells, and equations for flotation recovery were developed for various flotation types according to the rate-determining steps of the gas flowrate and feed rate. The flotation rate became a zero-order reaction at the rate-determining step of the gas flow rate and had the same form between a batch and continuous typed practices by substituting residence time with real time. Under the rate-determining step of the feed rate, the flotation rate was expressed by the linear combination of the first-order reaction of an even group material. The flotation recovery rate of Al powders was analyzed by the data of a batch floatability experiment and indicated by the linear expression of the first-order reaction of two groups due to the rate-determining step of the feed rate. The calculated separation recovery of n-cell type device increased as the number of cells increased and approached that of the batch and column types.
