Download or read book Challenges in Fine Coal Processing Dewatering and Disposal written by Mark S. Klima and published by SME. This book was released on 2012 with total page 406 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Coal mining and preparation have had a long history in the United States and the world, serving as the engine of growth for many industries. Today, new sources of energy, increased environmental awareness, and more stringent regulations from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and other organizations are changing the way coal is found, extracted, and used. As a result, fine coal cleaning, dewatering, and refuse disposal are now at a major crossroads. The increased level of fines, and near-density material in the inferior seams being mined today, necessitates the development of more efficient fine coal cleaning devices. This in turn requires improvements in traditional dewatering techniques to address the need for acceptable moisture levels in plant products. Moreover, the larger volume of fine refuse being generated, coupled with harsher disposal regulations, requires upgraded treatment options. This book is a compilation of information presented at the 2012 Fine Coal Symposium, sponsored by the Coal Preparation Society of America; the Pittsburgh Section of the Society for Mining, Metallurgy, and Exploration, Inc.; and the Pittsburgh Coal Mining Institute of America. Provided by international coal companies, major research organizations, technology developers, and industry leaders, the information includes both general knowledge and in-depth discussion on the current challenges facing the industry, techniques for designing more efficient plants, and new cleaning and dewatering technologies. The book is a practical yet cutting-edge resource for plant designers, engineers, and other practitioners, and for university students and faculty.
Download or read book Fast Fluidization written by and published by Academic Press. This book was released on 1994-12-23 with total page 453 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over the last decade, circulating fluidization or fast fluidization has developed rapidly, superseding standard bubbling fluidization in many applications; for example, fast fluidization provides a better means forcontrolling emissions from the combustion of high-sulfur fuels and excels when used in boilers in steam plant and power stations. China initiated the study of fast fluidization in the early 1970s. Focusing on the substantial research cultivated in that country, with Kwauk at the leading edge, this latest volume in the Advances in Chemical Engineering Series is written in the context of the international state of the art and addresses some of the most vital issues surrounding this fluidization method."
Download or read book Classification of Fine Particles Using a Taylor Couette Device written by Navina Durgaiah Tungapindi and published by . This book was released on 2009 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The study of fine particle classification is common, especially since a well defined particle size distribution is important in most processes and products. Many methods have been developed to classify micron-size particles, and although each has its own advantage, most cannot classify particles to an extremely narrow range. This is partly due to the cohesive nature of fine particles, which can be due to electrostatic attraction, moisture, or van der Waals forces. In order to overcome this problem, a wet method of classification has been chosen here. Taylor vortices, discovered in 1923, develop in the fluid contained in the annulus of two concentric rotating cylinders. It has been shown in recent years that Taylor vortices can be used to classify particles regardless of their size (which may range from a few microns to millimeters) and density difference between the particles and fluid. This method also allows for a semicontinuous throughput of particles. The present work outlines the use of Taylor vortices to classify fine particles to a narrower size distribution. The main objective here is to determine the parameters affecting classification of glass spheres of various initial distributions. Factors such as rotational velocity, system annulus size, particle to fluid density ratio, and particle feed rate have been investigated. The results obtained showed that both rotational velocity and particle feed rate have a significant effect on classification while classification for particles of size 10 [mu]m or less was not feasible for the experimental parameter range studied here. The conclusions were supported both numerically and experimentally"--Abstract, leaf iii

Download or read book Wet Classification in the Centrifugal Fluidized Bed written by Jan Margraf and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 152 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The present work deals with the optimization of a novel wet centrifugal fluidized bed classifier for separations in the micron range. Experiments and CFD calculations were applied to investigate the influence of the Coriolis force on the fluid flow and the fluidized bed. Further experiments were conducted to study and to model the expansion behavior of the centrifugal fluidized bed. Based on the findings a novel discharge mechanism for the coarse fraction has been developed. The measured pressure drop characteristic of the coarse particle bed reveals the range of fluidizing velocities which are optimal for the performance of classification. With the optimized classifier sharp classifications with a strong reduction of the misclassification of fines were achieved in different experiments with quartz, limestone and glass beads.

This book was released on 2022-02-15 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An in-depth experimental study of the fluid dynamics of turbulent fluidized beds with particles of Geldart’s Group B was carried out. For this purpose, fluidization behavior was investigated in different fluidized bed plants having diameters in the range of 0.05 m to 1 m. Pressure fluctuation analysis has been used as an identification tool for the turbulent fluidized bed regime. Different fluidization conditions have been investigated by variation of the fluidized bed properties, the bed material properties, and the gas properties. Based on the measured data, a correlation predicting the transition velocity from bubbling to turbulent fluidization is introduced. To investigate the local flow structure, capacitance probe measurements have been carried out. Using this measurement technique, local solids concentrations and properties of rising bubbles have been determined and analyzed. Finally, an empiric fluid dynamic model was developed using the local measurement data. It is mainly based on capacitance probe measurements and shows high accuracy in comparison to pressure data.

Download or read book Fluidization of Fine Powders written by José Manuel Valverde Millán and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-10-12 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book covers the rich phenomenology exhibited by fine powders when they are fluidized by a gas flow. Fine powder cohesiveness leads to poor flowability, clumping, difficulty in fluidizing, irregular avalanching behavior, etc. Despite all the inconveniences, fine powder processes pervade the chemical, pharmaceutical, agricultural and mining industries among others. The author in this book analyzes the mechanism by which interparticle adhesive forces are reduced by means of surface additives. Different techniques have been developed in the last years to assist fluidization by helping the gas flow to mobilize and break cohesive aggregates, which help to homogenize fluidization. As reviewed in this book, the use of these techniques may have a relevant impact on novel processes based on fluidized beds of fine powder and with relevant applications on leading edge technologies such as Atomic Layer Deposition on nanoparticles and CO2 capture by gas-fluidized beds of adsorbent powders. The study of fluidized beds has a marked interdisciplinary character. This book is thus intended for academic and industrial researchers in applied physics, mechanical, chemical, and environmental engineering, who are interested in the special characteristics of fine powders.
