Froth Floatation Cell name error #20927

@WeaselDog in any scientific literature that I managed to find the term flotation is used only example: wikipedia - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Froth_flotation Michigan Technological University - http://www.chem.mtu.edu/chem_eng/faculty/kawatra/Flotation_Fundamentals.pdf

I think, in order not to come back to this in the future, it is worth correcting the name not only in the displayname, but also in the technical name, including the name of the 3d model

Not sure i follow in what regards the name error is?

Flotation and Floatation is technically the same thing

Where the original word Floatation comes as a derived explanatory of "Float/tation" and describing the relative bouyancy of an object.

Just doing a quick google search i get almost 1 million results on froth floatation, not sure this term can be changed to simplify it when its not a simple object.

Also not sure what you want to change the name into?

@IcedForge i am about rename 'Froth FloAtation Cell' to 'Froth Flotation Cell'

Floatation = Flotation how as a word describing a property, but 'Froth Flotation' it is a scientifically based technological process that was named that way.
