A froth flotation cell includes a tank, a drive shaft rotatably disposed in the tank, a rotor connected to the drive shaft for imparting rotational energy to a fluidic/slurry material disposed in the tank, a standpipe mounted at least partially inside the tank proximate an upper end of the rotor, and at least one vortex stabilization structure connected to the standpipe and extending inwardly from an inner surface of said standpipe. The vortex stabilization structure may take the form of a helical vane or web extending circumferentially at an acute angle relative to a transverse plane oriented perpendicular to the axis of the standpipe.
