Abstract. Colloidal titanium dioxide (TiO {sub 2}) was separated from an aqueous suspension (1,000 ppm) by flotation using cationic or anionic surfactants. The effects of surfactant dosage, suspension pH value, suspension ionic strength, and gas flow rate on the dispersed-air flotation of colloidal TiO {sub 2} were investigated.
