The size distribution and floatandsink data produced by the washability analysis of coal samples provide the data to develop partition curves that can be used to predict the performance efficiency of cleaning equipment (Nasir et al. 2012; Souza et al. 2012). Floatandsink tests are widely used for coal analysis, because they can help to ...

The lowest residual sulfur levels ever attained by caustic leaching of Illinois No. 6 coal samples have resulted from the application of a combined floatsink/leaching (FL) process in which 50% aqueous NaOH solutions serve as the heavy medium during the floatsink step and as the reagent during subsequent atmospheric pressure leaching.

Sinkfloat tests are widely used for coal analysis, since they can help to estimate the coal accessibility through the gravity concentration. The data obtained from such tests are used to analyze the contents of ash, volatile matter, moisture and sulfur, and also to plot the washability curves, such as: density curve, cumulative floatash and sinkash curves, cumulative floatsulfur and sink ...

In one variation of the FL process, coal samples are pretreated by a floatsink procedure using 50% aqueous NaOH as the heavy medium. The floated coal plus a portion of the 50% aqueous caustic used during floatsink are then heated at 390°C at atmospheric pressure for 30 minutes.

The coals which float at specific gravity are called clean coal and the sinks are put to another suspension of specific gravity of Floats of the second suspension are called middlings and final sinks are called rejects. Thus, three products are produced by this process. Clean coal is supplied to steel plants, the middlings to thermal ...

It is chiefly used to produce clean coal as a "float", and a low grade "sink" consisting of shale or of coal too high in ash for sale. The various methods used in cleaning coal embody specialised applications of mineraldressing techniques, having the common factor of low specific gravity in the mineral recovered as a "float".

Most advanced finecoal cleaning processes involve the use of water. Utility companies are concerned not only with the lower Btu content of the resulting wet, cleaned coal, but more importantly with its handleability problems. Solutions to these problems would enhance the utilization of finecoal cleaning processes in the utility industry.

Coal washing Coal that comes from a mine is a complex mixture of materials with a large variety of physical properties. In addition to the coal itself, pieces of rock, sand, and various minerals are contained in the mixture. Thus, before coal can be sold to consumers, it must be cleaned. The cleaning process consists of a number of steps that results in a product that is specifically suited to ...

The standard practice on coal in England has been to use celltocell "SubA" Flotation Machines of the double overflow type. Several hundred of the large No. 30 cells (100 cu. ft./cell) are in use. Supercharging is not generally used. Flotation is carried out at low solids, usually under 10% dilution.

The floatandsink method helps in separating coal samples according to the difference in their respective specific gravities in a heavy liquid medium. This heavy fluid separation method is independent of the particle size and only a function of the difference in the densities of two substances.

The float and sink method is the mostly used technique for lowrank coal beneficiation in coal preparation plants of Turkey. In order to realize this process, the coal samples were, at first, fractioned to five different sizes which were 32+25 mm, 25+16 mm, 16+8 mm, 8+ mm, and +2 mm.

For all samples tested, the Roben Jig was successful in creating a clean coal sample similar to that of the floatandsink method but with better thermal rheology. For coals A to E, clean coal composites were made no less than 20 kg in order to charge the soleheated oven for smallscale carbonization. For coal F, bulk float/sink, flotation ...

The coal distribution data from sink and float analysis produces a set of curves (float curve, ash characteristic curve, and NGM curves), which can be used to predict the washability characteristics of coal cleaning. If the float curve has an "L" shape, then the coal is said to be easy washing, and if the NGM at a specific density fraction ...

After thermal upgrading, the coal is put through a deep bed stratifier cleaning process to separate the pyrite rich ash from the coal. When fed a typical low rank western coal, the SynCoal process can provide a product with a heating value of up to 12,000 BTU/lb with moisture and ash contents as low as 1% and %, respectively [ 100 ].
