General Review of Electrochemistry of Flotation of Sulphide Minerals -- Natural Floatability and Collectorless Flotation of Sulphide Minerals -- Collectorless Flotation in the Presence of Sodium Sulphide -- Collector Flotation of Sulphide Minerals -- Roles of Depressants in Flotation of Sulphide Minerals -- Electrochemistry of Activation Flotation of Sulphide Minerals -- Corrosive Electrochemistry of Oxidation-Reduction of Sulphide Minerals -- Mechano-Electrochemical Behavior of Flotation of Sulphide Minerals -- Molecular Orbital and Energy Band Theory Approach of Electrochemical Flotation of Sulphide Minerals -- Electrochemical Flotation Separation of Sulphide Minerals.

"Electrochemistry of Flotation of Sulphide Minerals" systematically covers various electrochemical measurements, especially electrochemical corrosive methods, electrochemical equilibrium calculations, surface analysis, semiconductor energy band theory as well as molecular orbital theory. Behaviour and mechanism of collectorless and collector-induced flotation of sulphide minerals in various flotation systems are also discussed. The example of electrochemical flotation separation of sulphide ores shows an industrial application.
