Orphaned references in Induced gas flotation[edit]

I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of Induced gas flotation's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

Reference named "Aqueous":

From Industrial wastewater treatment: Beychok, Milton R. (1967). Aqueous Wastes from Petroleum and Petrochemical Plants (1st Edition ed.). John Wiley & Sons. LCCN 67019834. {{cite book}}: |edition= has extra text (help)
From API oil-water separator: Beychok, Milton R. (1967). Aqueous Wastes from Petroleum and Petrochemical Plants (1st Edition ed.). John Wiley & Sons. LCCN 67019834. {{cite book}}: |edition= has extra text (help)
From Dissolved air flotation: Beychok, Milton R. (1967). Aqueous Wastes from Petroleum and Petrochemical Plants (1st edition ed.). John Wiley & Sons. LCCN 67019834. {{cite book}}: |edition= has extra text (help)

I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. AnomieBOT ⚡ 21:10, 21 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Are we sure that the air bubbles actually "adhere"? My understanding was that the bubbles formed on nucleation sites on the particles; so they're are already attached. Then eventually the bubbles act like a bunch of balloons connected to a lawnchair and they lift the crud to the top of the liquid. You can test this with a cookie and a carbonated beverage.
