Economical Consideration of Low Grade Coal Utilization

RECOVERY OF IRON FROM LOW-GRADE HEMATITE ORE USING COAL-BASED DIRECT REDUCTION FOLLOWED BY MAGNETIC SEPARATION

In the present work, iron recovery from a low-grade hematite ore (containing less than 40% iron), which is not applicable in common methods of ironmaking, was studied. Non-coking coal was used as reducing agent. Reduction experiments were performed under various coal to hematite ratios and temperatures. Reduction degree was calculated using the gravimetric method. Reduced samples were subjected...

Coal Ash Beneficiation and Utilization in Coal Separation Process

In recent years, coal production and consumption increased dramatically, especially in China. So, more and more attentions have been paid to coal preparation and coal ash utilization with the growing concern about the pollution by fly ash. The unburned carbon in fly ash significantly affects its utilization in many fields, especially in concrete production industry. Technologies such as flotati...

Washed Coal from a Utilization Perspective03.PDF

One day in my life concerning coal quality has struck me more than most. We asked a group of utility and power plant people what properties of coal they liked and what caused them concern. As each person provided their response you could see that each had their own view. Some wanted dustless coal, others coal that has good flow through chutes. Many wanted large, lumpy coals, the engineers wante...

Bioleaching of Low Grade Uranium Ore of Saghand Mine

This study deals with bioleaching of the low grade uranium ore of Saghand mine in Iran using a mixed culture of mesophilic bacteria (Acidithiobacillus ferrooxidans, Acidithiobacillus thiooxidans and Leptospirillum ferrooxidans). Experiments were carried out in shaking flask examining the effect of temperature, initial ferrous ion concentration, pulp density and particle size. Variations of ...
