Abstract
- Efficient enrichment of macerals improves the liquefaction efficiency of low-rank coal. The paper studied the characteristics of Shendong low-rank coal, including proximate and ultimate analyses, size and density compositions, and petrographic analysis, as well as the migration regularity of narrow particle size of low-rank coal macerals in the enhanced gravity field. On this basis, a novel classification separation process for low-rank coal macerals using Krebs hydrocyclone and enhanced gravity separator was proposed. The classification size was determined to be 0.074 mm and Krebs hydrocyclone achieved a satisfactory classification effect with a classification efficiency of 84.72%. Based on the enhanced gravity separation results of macerals from hydrocyclone underflow and overflow, the optimal sorting solutions for underflow and overflow were obtained through response surface analysis, respectively. Through the novel classification separation process, the vitrinite content of clean coal has been increased from 46.60% to 61.33% with an outstanding recovery of 77.40%. The novel classification separation process using hydrocyclone and enhanced gravity separator develops an excellent enrichment effect for low-rank coal macerals, which also provides a prospective approach for the cleaner utilization of low-rank coal.
