Application of colloidal gas aphrons (CGA) in decontaminating soils and aqueous solutions is one of the emerging innovative technologies. This paper addresses the size distribution and stability of CGAs as studied by using a particle size analyzer. Cationic, anionic, and nonionic surfactants were used to generate the CGAs. Size distribution spectrum and volume fraction of microbubbles in sample solutions were studied as functions of time. The effects of surfactant concentrations used to produce CGAs and the presence of an electrolyte, such as sodium chloride, on the characteristics of the suspension were also studied.
