1.1 This test method describes procedures for determining the washability characteristics of coarse-coal fractions and fine-coal fractions. Each sample being tested can have more than one coarse-coal size fraction and more than one fine-coal size fraction (see Annex A1).Each such size fraction has an upper size limit and a lower size limit, neither of which overlaps with the next larger nor ...
Using coal washability, a similar inverse relationship would occur between coal throughput and yield. Figure 1: General throughput versus quality relationship with improvement through better control ( and Craig, 2008). ... All calculations can be time-delay adjusted to ensure a single reference point in time for all measured variables.
For coal washability analysis, the major steps for treating the CT data from serial slices are: (l) construct 2-D 'or 3-D image, (2) threshold the data, (3) extract the contour surface, (4) label each particle, (5) measure and classify the density of each particle and (6) establish the washability curve.

Jun 24, 2015· Specific Gravity Curve. The cumulative % wt. Floats or sinks is plotted against S.G. If the material consists of two minerals completely liberated from each other, the curve will be a stepped line. The width of the step indicates the S.G. difference between the minerals and the height of the steps the relative amounts of the minerals present.
Jan 01, 2004· A new coal washability index, termed as 'near gravity material index (NGMI)', has been developed based on the sink-float data. This new index incorporates the effect of ash distribution in the near gravity material at various specific gravities of separation. ...

Oct 22, 2016· Addressing coal research and design is an important stage in construction and operation of coal preparation plants. At present time the calculation of flow sheets is based on the initial data of the study of operational samples (industrial) samples, taken directly from the mine (open cast) without taking into account breakage on handling of ...
Float-sink/Washability analysis characterizes and quantifies your sample as low density "clean coal", high density, "reject" or intermediate density "middlings".

coal floated, the recovery curves for non- ash and ash materials has been drawn for the calculation of washability Index, IW. With the help of obtained data from investigation the washability curves have been drawn. Cumulative ash percentage is placed on y axis and cumulative yield percentage on x axis as shown inFigure 1. Cumulative
Through washability study, a couple of parameters were investigated for a low volatile Pakistani Coal (coking). The aim was to find out the effect of the action of reducing material release characteristics for low volatile Pakistani coal. The "Index of washability" (IW) and "Near gravity material Index" (NGMI) were used as parameters to express the ease of washability.
Coal Washability And Calculations Stone Crusher Machine. Prediction of washability as a function of breakage acarp,the washability and recovery of coal is governed by two processes: breakage and liberation of stone from coal. the efficiency of liberation is coal type and particle size dependent. particle size distribution is a function of the material properties of the coal and the breakage ...

Oct 07, 2019· Coal Analysis. Most, if not all, coals are tested prior to being used. Some markets require specific quality characteristics for the process in which the coal is used, and environmental regulations also require knowledge of a coal's quality. Some products also require analysis of physical characteristics of coals for handling or processing.
A consultant in fossil fuel analysis and quality management based in New Jersey, Nadkarni lists the ASTM methods for measuring such characteristics as carbon and hydrogen in coal and coke, mercury, plasticity of coal, sieve analysis, specific gravity of lump coal, and washability.The entries, each about half a page long, explain the theory and rationale, summarize the test method, and specify ...
