Fatty acid type ionic collectors were used as an alternative to conventional oily collectors, kerosene, and pine oil mixture in the flotation of coal tailing with 46.1% ash. The conventional collectors could not reduce the ash content of the concentrate below 22%. On the other hand, ionic collectors were found to be significantly better at reducing the ash content down to 13%. It was concluded that despite their lower flotation yield and higher consumptions, certain ionic collectors could be used successfully in coal flotation where cleaner concentrates are required from coal fines with high ash content.

Effects of operational parameters and ultrasonic pretreatment on supercritical CO2 extraction of diesel fuel from soil
Guvenc, A; Mehmetoglu, U; Mehmetoglu, T (Informa UK Limited, 2004-01-01)
Supercritical fluid extraction (SFE) using CO2 was performed on soil material artificially contaminated with diesel fuel. Raising the temperature from 313 K to 343 K caused the recovery efficiency to increase from 52 to 76%. Pressure and CO2 flow rate were found to be less important. As expected, increasing extraction time resulted in higher recoveries. Ultrasonic pretreatment of the soil material was found to be very effective, possibly due to disrupting the strong interaction bonding between soil matrix a...
ELECTROKINETICS OF OXIDIZED COAL
SARIKAYA, M; OZBAYOGLU, G (Elsevier BV; 1990-01-01)
Electrokinetic measurements were carried out in order to determine the properties of oxidized coal surfaces over a wide pH range both in the presence and absence of various metal ions and flotation collectors. It was found that polyvalent cations, such as Fe++, Fe+++ and Al+++ decreased the zeta potential to zero and then reversed the charge. In the presence of cationic collectors, the negative value of zeta potential of oxidized coal was driven positive, below 9.3 to 10.9 depending on the type and concentr...
PREDICTION OF BED MATERIAL ACTIVITY FROM CHANGES IN CARBON-DIOXIDE CONCENTRATION FOLLOWING COAL PARTICLE INJECTION IN THE FLUIDIZED-BED REACTOR
VURAL, H (Elsevier BV, 1994-01-01)
An electrically heated laboratory scale fluidized bed reactor was used for measurement of carbon dioxide concentrations from the devolatilization of bituminous coal under conditions pertinent to a large scale atmospheric pressure fluidized bed combustor (AFBC). Feeding a few particles into the bed, which contained 1 or 2 g of char, produced an increase in CO2 concentration. The quantity of CO2 released from the fluidized bed was found to be a function of fluidizing solid material, as well as the bed tempera...
Investigation of combustion process through horizontal wells
Bağcı, Ali Suat (Informa UK Limited, 2005-04-15)
Dry combustion was accomplished with the application of different horizontal well configurations in a 3-D model using high gravity oil. Seven experiments using Raman crude oil (18 degrees API) were carried out in the laboratory with a 40 cm square 3-D model having a thickness of 15 cm. Five different well configurations were applied to recover Raman crude oil. The model was packed by tamping a mixture of crushed limestone, water and crude oil. A total of 36 thermocouples were used at the top, center and bot...
Emissions from co-firing lignite and biomass in an oxy-fired CFBC
Varol, Murat; Symonds, Robert; Anthony, E. J.; Lu, Dennis; Jia, Lufei; Tan, Yewen (Elsevier BV, 2018-05-01)
The co-combustion of a high-sulfur lignite and biomass blend (up to 50% by weight) has been studied in a small oxy-fired circulating fluidized bed combustion (CFBC) pilot plant. Here the goal is to examine the effect of biomass share on NOx, SO2 and CO emissions. In these tests, a series of runs has looked at the effect of increasing biomass share under air firing, followed by tests in oxy-firing mode. The results show that the emissions are remarkably insensitive to the biomass share, and are comparable to...
