South African fine coal. This was the first such work specifically carried out on fines. The concept was further advanced3 at the SAIMM Colloquium held in September 1974, 'Heavy-medium Separation and Ore Sorting'. In the section on 'Fines Beneficiation', reference was made to the possible use of a cyclone dense-medium system, and computerization
Coal beneficiation is one of the most effective methods for removing minerals (such as gangues and pyrite) and pollutants (such as sulfur) before the burning of coal. In general, the beneficiation process of low rank coals is more difficult to achieve than that of bituminous and/or anthracite coals. However, about 50% of the world's total …
Abstract— Coal beneficiation in South Africa is currently conducted mostly on a wet "float and sink" basis. This process is heavily water intensive and also potentially polluting. …

Dense-medium cyclones have been used for beneficiation of fine particles of coal. In this study, the usability of cyclones in the beneficiation of tailings of a coal preparation plant was investigated. For this purpose, separation tests were conducted using spiral concentrator and heavy medium cyclones with the specific weight of medium …
by H.C. VOGESt. SYNOPSIS. An account is given of the tests being conducted by Iscor on the following processes for the beneficiation of coal fines: froth flotation, gravity separation, heavy-medium separation, and pneumatic and column flotation. The coals used in the tests came from the Durnacol, Tshikondeni, Grootegeluk, and Hlobane …
The experimental results show that an air dense medium fluidized bed with low density can be formed using magnetic pearls as medium solids, which can efficiently beneficiate coal of 6–50 mm size ...
The increase of the high amount of fine size coal (more than 25%) causes both dust problem in the production step and low recovery problem in the beneficiation step. Generally, the fine coal is beneficiated by using the flotation methods, heavy medium cyclones, and shaking tables and spirals. However, if the fine size coal is bituminous, …
Various methods for the beneficiation of minus 0,5 mm coal are examined briefly, and tests are descriptionbed on a cyclone of 150 mm diameter operating with magnetite as the medium. It was found that, for sharp separations, at least 50 per cent of the magnetite should be finer than 10?m.At that size, the ash content of the product was about 7 per …
Coal dense medium separation is a popular beneficiation process used for the upgrading of coal ore into power station and metallurgical coal. The control systems …

An air dense medium (magnetite) fluidized bed (ADMFB) provides an alternative method for dry coal beneficiation. The de-mixing (segregation) characteristics can significantly affect the quality of the final products. In this study, the segregation characteristics of fine coal (1–3 mm) in an ADMFB were compared to those in an …
Gravity coal preparation; 2. Floating coal preparation (flotation); 3. Special coal preparation. Among them, the heavy medium coal preparation technology has been continuously improved due to its relevance to China's coal conditions, so we choose the heavy medium coal preparation technology for research. Coal is a mixture of many …

Dense-medium cyclone cleaning of fine coal was used in South Africa at Greenside Colliery to produce a low-ash coal containing 7% ash and a middling fraction containing 16% ash (De Korte, 2002 ...
Dry beneficiation is an alternative approach. The present work is a review and critical assessment of topics relevant to dry processing of coal, comprising comminution, size classification, characterisation and analysis, sorting at coarse sizes, mechanical beneficiation according to density at medium sizes, and electrical and …
Dense Medium (DM) separation, which simulates the effect of using a heavy liquid of the appropriate density to effect a float/sink separation of coal from associated mineral matter. In commercial practice, this is achieved by using a suspension of finely …

An autogenous (self-generated) dense medium could be derived from heavy gangue mineral contained in coal which enhance gravity separation using water. Because of its simplicity, small space requirements, lack of moving parts, low operating costs, low maintenance requirements without dense medium, the WOC is widely used in coal …
Wet processing of coal requires a large quantity of water. Waste generated from wet process ties up a significant amount of water and land. The slurry ponds also pose serious problems in case of dam breakage. Dry beneficiation of coal offers a better alternative approach for cleaning coal.

Introduction. The dense medium separation process (DMS) is a mature technology, and is widely used in mineral and coal processing. The dense medium cyclone (DMC) is the most ubiquitous of the DMS vessels in use, and deservedly so. It is efficient (when run properly), can process both coarse and fine sizes, and has a relatively small …
