CA 2689729

A fluid treatment device and method is proposed for the treatment of a fluid that has components to be separated, such as tailings. The fluid treatment device in one embodiment comprises a motive pump connected to drive fluid to be treated along a conduit through a restriction forming a nozzle into a mixing chamber and thence to a discharge. A port, which may be controlled by a valve, admits gas into an initial portion of the mixing chamber. The motive pump, nozzle, gas port and mixing chamber together form a phase separator. Multiple phase separators may be connected together in series. The mixing chamber may have constant diameter and a length to diameter ratio of 20:1 or 60:1 or more. The conduit terminates in a discharge. The discharge may supply the treated fluid to a secondary separation device such as a flotation cell. Solids and liquids may be taken off the flotation cell for disposal, further processing or delivery into a sales line.
