a large volume of tailings has been produced in anjir-tangeh coal washing plant for 22 years of human activity. the coal washing activities have reduced plant diversity near the plant. the environmental impact of coal washing plant on the vegetation around the factory was studied in two seasons. the concentrations of pb, cd and cr, measured in different native plant species, were in normal rang...

The Alborz coal basin is located in northern part of Iran. The coal deposits of Shahrood in eastern Alborz, Zirab in central Alborz and Abyek in western Alborz were studied as typical coalfields of the basin. Shemshak Formation which is the main coal-bearing sequence was formed during the Triassic-Jurassic in the basin. It consists of sandstone, siltstone, shale and claystone, which variedly al...

The techno-economic aspects of coal drying with cost effective waste heat recovery mechanism is one of the challenging issues faced while using lignite or high ash brown coal for direct combustion in coal fired thermal power plant. Coal being hygroscopic in nature, re-adsorbs considerable moisture even after conventional drying post wet coal washing condition affecting boiler performance. Parti...

zeolite was synthesized from coal tailings and coal fly ash sampled from zarand coal washing plant, iran, using h2o2–promoted hydrothermal treatment. samples consisted mainly of sio2 and al2o3 which are the main components for the zeolite synthesis. to perform the experiments, appropriate amount of the starting materials were mixed with 240 ml volume of 30% h2o2 at room temperature with continu...

subject analysis of the potential of spontaneous combustion in coal layers with analytical and numerical methods has been always considered as a difficult task because of the complexity of the coal behavior and the number of factors influencing it. empirical methods, due to accounting for certain and specific factors, have not accuracy and efficiency for all positions. the rock engineering syst...

The impact of installing process control systems can be expected in terms of performance improvements through reduced operating costs.  Since these installations impose considerable capital expenditure, the profitability of the new systems should be economically justified. Controlled variable trend was reconstructed by a combination of simple waves, which provided a means to simulate the ef...

In the coal preparation plant, the run of mine coal undergoes a series of operations, including washing, wet screening, sedimentation and dewatering. The process requires the circulation of large volumes of water from which large volumes of waste water containing a variety of solid particles are generated. Clarification of the tailing water is often carried out in a thickener by adding suitable...

Phytoremediation is a technology that uses plants for the remediation of the contaminated soils, sediments, tailings, and groundwaters. In this work, the ability of TrifoliumAlexanderium for the phytoremediation of the tailings soil in the Anjir-Tange coal washing plant was investigated. For this purpose, Trifolium sp. was cultivated in three soils consisting of the tailings dam, an agricultura...
