Magnetite is widely used as iron ore due to its high iron content and also employed in 75 coal washing processes [17]. Wang et al. [18] added magnetite aggregates in the mix design to heat up the ...
Commercial magnetite often contains significant amounts of α and γFe 2 O 3, in addition to magnetite. As αFe 2 O 3 is nonmagnetic, it is not removed in the magnetic separator and is discharged in the refuse. It is believed that this is the cause for much of the loss of heavy media experienced in the coal cleaning plants.
Firstly, runofmine (ROM) coal is mixed with a slurry whose density is adjusted by the percentages of water and magnetite contents therein. This slurry is usually referred to as dense medium...

Most widely used process in washing of coal. Disadvantages of dense medium process 1. It is inefficient in cleaning small size coal as the viscosity of media effects these sizes and reduces the capacity of the plant. 2. ... A pulp of raw coal and heavy magnetite is fed tangentially to the cyclone. 3.
Abstract. Magnetite is widely used in most densemedium processes in the coal industry because of its higher specific gravity, stability in suspension, lower viscosity, and easy availability, recovery and reuse. To keep the suspension at the desired specific gravity and low viscosity, it is necessary to extract ... Read More
by Keith Powell — November 21, 2016. Using a combination of trains and trucks, magnetite will be shipped to the Elk Valley coal mines from Montana. — Photo: Flickr/Misson Mountain Railroad. Hundreds of tons of magnetite will soon be shipped by truck from Fortine, Montana to the Elk Valley coal mines, according the Flathead Beacon newspaper ...
It was found that the magnetite stuck to the surface moisture of the coal. The use of a highfrequency screen improved recovery of the magnetite from the wet coal samples from % to %. Recovery from the highfrequency screen for both dry and wet magnetite samples was lower than that achieved with a conventional 3 mm screen.

The coal beneficiation or coal preparation process separates inorganic impurities from raw mined coal, reducing the concentration of unwanted material or gangue and thereby providing improved combustion characteristics to the fuel produced. The commonly used beneficiation methods for coal sorting and processing include jig separation, heavy ...

A coal washing circuit is studied for the purpose of better control of the density of medium used in dense medium cyclones to enhance separation efficiency. The process dynamics is mathematically modelled and a controller is designed following model predictive control method. The objective of the control is to adjust the medium density to follow an optimal density profile set by an upper level ...
Experiments have been conducted on a 75mm densemedium cyclone treating coal in the size range − + mm using magnetite as the medium under different design and operating conditions. The design variables studied were vortex finder diameter and spigot diameter and the operating variable was the specific gravity of the feed medium.
magnetic separators 1. Introduction Densemedium (magnetite in the case of coal), a slurry/suspension having a relative density intermediate to that of valuable mineral and gangue, is generally used as the medium of separation in most coal preparation plants.
Wet beneficiation/coal washing. Currently, the wet coal beneficiation process is the predominant method for coal upgrading. The wet beneficiation processes include heavy media separation, cyclone (water only), froth flotation, and spiral separation [23,24]. The use of these technologies depends on the particle size of the feed and the ...
A common term for this process is coal "washing" or "cleaning". Coal processing is a broader term used to describe the complete process of sizing, handling and washing of the runofmine coal. ... Magnetite for coal washing must be of overall high purity and be devoid of contaminants, such as hematite, sulphides or other gangue minerals ...
Power plant fly ash, a highvolume waste product of pulverized coal combustion, contains a magnetic fraction which can be easily separated and has a high market potential. The fly ash from most of the bituminous coals contains 15 to 20 weight percent iron oxides, 50% or more of which can be recovered by dry magnetic separation as a high ...
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 ...
Abstract. In this paper, the problems which occurred on introduction of dense medium cyclone coal washing in Australia are reviewed together with the subsequent measures taken to obtain a satisfactory magnetite. Specification and testing of magnetite for exploration, quality control and inplant check purposes is discussed.

Densemedium (magnetite in the case of coal), a slurry/suspension having a relative density intermediate to that of valuable mineral and gangue, is generally used as the medium of separation in most coal preparation plants. The medium, being costly, plays a crucial role in determining the economics of any preparation operation.
