Description

The fine coal condensation product be subjected to control products and recovery
The present invention relates to a kind of method that the fine coal condensation product reclaims that is used for, particularly, the present invention relates to a kind of method of utilizing a Controlling System to reclaim these fine coal condensation products, wherein Controlling System comprises the device that is used for monitoring coal slurry/water slurry/ore slurry fine coal concentration, be beneficial to control the conveying of (for example being used for reclaiming the oil base milk sap of technology) of optimum quantity flocculation agent, thereby prevent the excessive use of flocculation agent, and eliminate because excessive use and needs that flocculation agent is reclaimed.
Most of coal washery all will produce the wake flow that contains fine coal in its operating process.Therefore, just wish to reclaim these fine coal, but owing to contain a large amount of useless mineral substance in the wake flow, so the work of recovery fine coal is very difficult.Most of coal washery thinks that this part fine coal of recovery is very uneconomical, and it is discharged in the tailing pond.The coal of being thrown away accounts for the 5-30% of the coal of exploiting out, has so just produced very big waste.
The condensation product that reclaims coal from the wake flow of coal separating plant has been technique known.The oil coacervation can be divided into two stages.Fs comprises coal slurry and oil is mixed, so that the conglomeration selectively of coal grain makes mineral particle scatter simultaneously.In subordinate phase, the condensation product of coal is separated from mineral substance by screening, filtration or flotation.
The oil coacervation is used to coal washing for the first time in nineteen twenty-one.But, therefore be not applied to industry because its oil consumption is big.In the 1950's, begin again this Study on Technology.Method based on the oil cohesion resembles Convertol, and Olifloc and spherical coacervation are studied out.But also design the specific equipment that is used for this method.A kind of method of oil cohesion is developed in Poland, and it is called as " mineral have selection coacervation ".According to the research of being done, we can say that oily coacervation is subjected to the influence of following parameter: the type and the quantity of the oil of interpolation (crosslinked fluid), mineral content in the mud, the distribution situation of granular size in the mud, the pH value of medium, solid exists in the mud, the mixing time of mud/crosslinked fluid and mixture strength.
Although there have been the methods of many oil cohesions to be applied to the recovery of fine coal tailing, verified up to now these methods do not have economy, and because the waste that oily excessive use causes in removal process makes it can not be widely used in industry.Excessive part or be wasted perhaps reclaims by expensive recovery method, so just makes oily coacervation not have economy on the whole.The economical efficiency of recovery method is substantially under the prerequisite of guaranteeing not have waste or excessive use, by minimum and effectively represent with oil mass.The oil that the common use cost of known method is higher, diesel oil for example, but fail to control effectively the oil mass of using in the treating processes.In these methods, required oil mass is represented by solid concentration in coal slurry/water slurry/ore slurry usually.Use the oily coacervation of light oil just to be used, but this method makes the oil recovery cost that utilizes again very high, thereby increased the total cost of this technology in the thirties in 20th century.
The author is Zofia Blaschke, and exercise question is in the article of " the selective flotation of oily coacervation and coal slurry ", has described a pilot plant that is used for oily coacervation.This piece article discloses the following fact: 1978, when the investigation of making pilot plant and prove that selectively condensing method possesses skills after the feasibility, Australian Broken HillProprietary company limited has built up one in John Darling colliery and has had plant-scale factory.The feed capacity of this factory per hour is 5.5 tons a drying solid.Its technical process has proved the simplicity of its design.It is about 40% charging that the factory of semi-commercial can handle average pan feeding ash content.Oil is added into the form by the milk sap that ultrasonic wave was produced.When charging is the oil of 7-8% when processed with adding speed, will produce yield rate for containing the agglomerated product of 79% ash content (exsiccant charging), this is equivalent to 60% of charging.Product agglomerated together is easy to handle, and has stored 8 months under the condition of non-oxidation.The ash content of tailing and can form very limpid supematant liquid generally in the scope of 80-85% apace, and stays a stable gray layer in supematant liquid, and in contrast, the sedimentation speed of charging is then very slow.But the device that does not comprise the speed of feed of the milk sap that is used to control oil in this method, wherein speed of feed is to determine by the concentration of measuring coal in coal slurry/slug.
Also described another kind of method in this piece article, and be called as the Aglofloat method, this method is a kind of senior spherical cohesion and method for floating.In the method, raw coal is ground into the particle of 600 μ m and is mixed into mud with recirculated water.Crude oil and diesel oil mix, and form crosslinked oil.Next, coal slurry combines in the high speed shear stirrer with crosslinked oil, and coal and oil form the micelle that size is about 212 μ m in shear mixer.This micelle separates with mineralogical composition and residue in flotation machine, is cleaned in hydroseparator then and is separated with pyrite particle.The micelle of demineralize is transported to the low velocity shear stirrer that adds how crosslinked oil, and micelle is increased to about 850-335 μ m.Residue in flotation and the hydroseparator is removed and thrown away as waste from a factory.This method can be carried out sorting to ash content height, soft coal that sulphur content is high.Ash content is 3.7%, total sulphur content is that No. 6 coals in Illinois of 4.19% are reduced to that ash content is 6.8%, total sulphur content is 3.7% product, and this product has been removed 77% sulfurous iron ore composition, and reclaims combustiblecomponents 89%.
Also disclose another method in this article, this method is called as the spherical coacervation of Bechtel.This condensing method is the recovery that spherical condensing method successfully is applied to coal for the first time.Method shown in Figure 2 is used heptane to make to be difficult for being had machine-made egg-shaped or honey-comb coal briquets agglomerated together in the aqueous slurry of ultra-fine (less than 20 μ m) coal by what water bedewed selectively.Subsequently, add a kind of bituminous cement of oil base, so that condensation product increases to the spheroidal particle that is easier to the 6.4mm to 9.5mm that handles.Hydrophilic inorganic one-tenth ash and pyritic sulphur composition are thrown away, and only stay the waste material of pure no coal.Next, the coal product of conglomerate is by sloughing the crosslinked liquid of heptane with contacting of steam.Vapor removal is used to reclaim heptane, because heptane and steam can form a kind of azeotropic mixture, the boiling point of this azeotropic mixture (79.0C) is lower than the boiling point (being respectively 98 ' C and 100 ' C) of heptane and water respectively.
Do not have those factories of floatation equipment usually super-fine material (size is less than 100 μ m) to be used as the mine tailing processing, thereby cause waste.In some cases, this superfine waste material comprise weight percent greater than 50%, ash content is lower and the coal of suitable sale.We believe: with regard to the output of present Australian coal-mining industry, these coals have constituted annual 8000000 to 1,000 ten thousand tons loss.
Selectable oily coacervation relates to recovery (hydrophobic) Bed for Fine Coal from (hydrophilic) liquid of rich in mineral substances.Up-to-date style method relates to the step that adds oil (being generally emulsified state) in the fine coal grout that stirs.This oil is coated on the surface of each coal grain.When the particle of band oil reservoir in the mud that stirs clashed into mutually, these particles flocked together by the olefiant swing axle of shape (pendular bridge).Then, can coal grain agglomerated together be separated with the rich solution of mineral substance by screening or floatation process.But aforesaid method all is not disclosed in the Controlling System that is used for accurately adjusting flocculation agent dosage in the removal process.
One aspect of the present invention uses accurate control flocculation agent to export the method that reclaims the fine coal condensation product and above-mentioned known method has been made improvement by providing a kind of, thereby prevent excessive use flocculation agent and reclaim flocculation agent, the output that wherein resembles the such flocculation agent of oily emulsion is corresponding with the parameter of coal/water of measuring/mineral chylema.

With reference to Fig. 3, there is shown the complete layout that most preferred embodiment according to the present invention is used to reclaim the method for fine coal condensation product.
This method needs a mud source, and fine coal will be extracted in the mud source.Mud is contained in the thickening material container 30, and container 30 comprises and the mud emission pipeline 31 of pump 32 UNICOMs, and pump 32 is connected with the feed-pipe 33 that ends at feed containers 34 itself.Feed-pipe 33 comprises a under meter (not shown) as described in Figure 1, and coal/water/slurry of mineral is transported in the feed containers 34.Container 34 comprises a delivery pipe or upflow tube 34a, is used for all overflows are delivered to tailing pond 46.Coal-water slurry in the feed containers 34 is transported to high speed shear stirrer 38 by fresh feed pump 35.The feed-pipe 36 that is positioned at trip under the pump 35 is included in pipeline stirrer 37.
This method also comprises emulsion stirrer 40, and this stirrer 40 can hold the mixture of oil, water and surfactant, to form the oil base emulsion.Emulsion 40 also comprises the feed-pipe 41 that ends at pump 42.Pump 42 is connected with transfer lime 43 in its downstream side, thereby forms UNICOM between emulsion stirred vessel 40 and high speed shear stirrer 38.This method also comprises a signal processing computer 50, and this computer 50 directly or indirectly is connected with at least one feed containers 34 with 55 by above-mentioned probe 54, thereby adjusts the flow by the various compositions of this system.PLC computer 50 comprises an interface 57 and 58, thereby when coal/water/slurry of mineral flows with it, allows signal to be connected with densometer with under meter on the feed-pipe 33.So just can make computer metering go out to be transported to the flow velocity of the coal/water/slurry of mineral in the feed containers 34.
Computer 50 comprises interface 52 and 53, and interface 52 and 53 ends at and the contacted probe 54 of coal/water/slurry of mineral and 55.Meter is used for measuring the quantity of fine coal in feed containers 34 coals/water/slurry of mineral.
The state of mud is converted into the signal that can import computer 50, and to adjust the flow of pump 42 outputs by interface 56, wherein computer 50 is being controlled a loop.Like this, just can control, thereby reclaim maximum coals, and not have waste material to be transported to high speed shear stirrer 38 with the emulsion of appropriate amount from the quantity and/or the flow of the emulsion of container 40 outputs.
The probe that is used for this method can have been bought in the shop, thereby but also is not combined in fine coal up to now in the above described manner and reclaims the precedent that the conveying that makes oil emulsion in the technology is controlled.Pump 42 is variable speed drives preferably, thereby can be according to the reading that is received by computer 50 and definite required oil mass of high speed shear stirrer is adjusted its speed.
Coal/water/slurry of mineral and stir in high speed shear stirrer 38 by special agitator 38a from the emulsion of emulsion stirred vessel 40, wherein agitator 38a comprises the baffle plate (not shown).The mixture of coal/water/emulsion can conglomerate, and fine coal agglomerated together is inhaled in the primary separator 39.Computer 50 is assigned instruction by software, thereby when coal/water/slurry of mineral during by continuous feed, starts emulsion pump 42 emulsion of required dosage is transported to high speed shear stirrer 38.The under meter of a standard of use is monitored the flow of coal/water/slurry of mineral, and wherein the under meter of computer 50 electrical connections is arranged near the inlet of feed containers.Preferably the mixture with emulsion/coal/water stirs several minutes.In another embodiment, one second high-speed stirring container (not shown) receives the overflow of high speed shear stirrer 38, but also can be used in the residence time that increases high-speed shearing machine.
Underflow stream from high speed shear stirred vessel 38 enters primary separator 39 under action of gravity, this primary separator 39 can be a settling bath that does not have stirring action, or the settling bath with washing swirler or screw-blade (water washing cyclone or spirals).High speed shear stirrer 38 also comprises an overflow means, and these parts allow the overflow of high speed shear stirrer 38 to import in the vibratory screening apparatus separator 39 of laser cutting.Separator 39 uses with a upflow tube 39a, and upflow tube 39a can import the overflow from primary separator on the draining screen 45 of laser cutting.
Underflow from separator 39 and draining screen 45 is pumped in the (not shown) of wake flow pond by wake flow pump 47, and the low ash coal group of the coal dust of conglomerate or dehydration is directed to product conveyor 48, and the goods with coal separating plant on transfer roller 48 mix.
Emulsion preferably is made up of water and oil, and then adds a small amount of surfactant that is enough to keep emulsion stability.The big I of coal grain from 500 μ m to the sub-micron size.
The dosage of emulsion is very important for the coal that successfully reclaims maximum, and as mentioned above, the dosage of emulsion is very important for the economic benefit of this method.If emulsion can be used effectively, operating cost just can be reduced to minimum so.In addition, can just can work automatically without manual operation by computer-controlled this method.Have only by suitable emulsion dosage and just can make the measured coal of matter group, and the high-recovery on the vibratory screening apparatus also needs the measured coal of matter group.For obtaining proper dosage, the mass flow of delivering to the coal in the factory is known, and this point is very important, therefore just requires online monitoring meter to provide information for computer, thereby starts variable-speed pump 42.
Stirred vessel must have at least one high speed shear agitator and vertical baffle plate, thereby produces maximum eddy current, and makes coal grain and oil droplet form maximum contacting, and wherein oil droplet is formed by the particulate oil coating.This container must have a zone stably, thereby the particle with oil coating is clashed into mutually and the volume of condensation product is increased.This container also should be equipped with an air distributor, to promote condensation product to increase and to form the floating mat (floatingmat) that a coal is rolled into a ball.The floating mat of coal product should be able to make the stirred vessel overflow, and provides situation to the separation sieve that is used to dewater.Stirred vessel also should comprise an outlet, so that underflow and/or less condensation product enter primary separator by this outlet, is used for further processing.
The high speed shear stirrer must have a blade geometric shape, thereby can produce axial flow and the radially combination of flow, thereby in container body, realize good stirring, keep the enough residence time and high speed shear simultaneously, to realize the interaction of coal-oil.
The diameter of Re stirrer and the diameter ratio of container (if being columnar words) should be in 1: 2 to 1: 8 scopes, and power rating (power rating number) is 0.5 to 10.
Stirred vessel should be provided with and be used to guide the device of nucleonic(s)gage (nucleonic gauge) and the inlet tube of coal/water/slurry of mineral and emulsion.These two inlets should be close mutually, and be preferably in to enter before the container and mix.Product from stirrer overflow and primary separator need be through sieving or the strainer dehydration.When coal product be condensed into a bigger group and the mud of floating at mineral/water on the time, mineral grain is still very meticulous, and may be submicron size.For bulk liquids is separated, need to use dusting cover with maximum " perforated area " from coal.This can be realized by the sieve that forms by the special cutting of laser technology.This sieve should have the hole of 200-50 μ m, and its perforated area should be between 20%-10%.For the benefit of separate, these sieves are fixed on the laser cutting sieve of oscillating screen plate device and special assembling, to give whole sieve plate with conduct vibrations.If do not have these special sieves, so just can not realize sufficient dehydration.The efficient of dehydration is decided by to form good big condensation product, and wherein condensation product flies on the mud surface.Obstruction in the slit of sieve is not any problem, because it has minimum anterior border, and formed by the cutting of extremely thin stainless steel sheet, and stainless steel sheet has surfaces hardened, to overcome wearing and tearing.
We utilize the pilot plant that per hour can handle 10 cubic metres to carry out preliminary study.This pilot plant is designed to movably form, it is re-positioned at a plurality of test sites.The design of pilot plant is to be made of three modules with particular task at first.
The also emulsion of transferring oil is prepared, held to first module according to the content of density, flow velocity and the coal of feeding mud with in check speed.Second module relates to the stirring of mud, the formation and the dehydration procedure of fine coal condensation product, and the 3rd module relates to the storage of oil in bulk.
In METHOD FOR CONTINUOUS DETERMINATION and writing task parameter, fully automated also is provided with testing apparatus and the speed-change control device of pump and the pilot plant of stirrer is allowed technologic variation.Product is on action of gravity is moved to the belt that gathers materials under this structure, and wake flow then is imported in the suitable treatment loop.When to pilot plant's charging, the underflow (tailings thickener underflow) of wake flow thickener can be set.Between detection period, solid concentration can change in weight percent is the scope of 10-25% in the charging, and ash content can change in the scope of 20-25%.The rate of recovery of the combustiblecomponents of pilot plant is 75-90% under usual conditions, simultaneously according to the tonnage of drying products, only needs to add the oil of 8-10%.Its ash content of made product very low (less than 10%), but the bending of vibratory screening apparatus (bend) dewatering system produces the humidity high product.Fig. 4 shows the representative data of being concluded out by the operation of pilot plant.Under the operational condition and similar feed mud condition of routine, we find that these results can reproduce, and corresponding with the coal facies in specific coal seam.Data representation ash content among Fig. 5 is that 8.1% o'clock its product recovery rate is 72%, and to use oily coacervation can be to reclaim combustiblematerials 85.3% 22.4% the feed mud from containing ash content.
When operator require SOAP factory to come into operation, only need press the button on interior operator's interface screen between washing coal control, just can begin the operation procedure of factory automatically.
One self-acting valve is opened, and allows mud to flow to SOAP factory from the processing pipeline of wake flow thickener.Be installed in pump on the feeding pipe and controlling charging, and the mud that exceeds factory's needs is imported into the tailing pond of SOAP factory factory.The mud charging of constant flow rate and the oil of controlling the size automatically are transported to the high speed shear agitating procedure.
The rotating speed of joining oil pump of fixed displacement is controlled by the algorithm of enrolling in the PLC program, and algorithm has been considered current operating parameters: the oil mass of flow velocity, adding and the nature parameters of mud, for example density and ash content.
The mud of conglomerate overflows in the primary separator that adds fresh water.Condensation product will float.Some liquid that are rich in mineral are removed from overflow, and the rest part of condensation product and liquid flows to draining screen.The product that comes out from draining screen outputs on the transfer roller that gathers materials, and what be equipped with a monitoring continuously factory output on this transfer roller weighs instrument from traverse.Transfer roller will be transported on the main conveyor of coal washing product by the product that condensing method is made, and mix mutually with coal washing product.Tailing stream by draining screen combines to tailing pond and with mud, and the charging that exceeds the art breading ability is handled dam (tailings disposal dam) by pump from the mine tailing at scene.
Entire method is automatic from start to end fully.Conventional operation only need be checked factory on the basis of setting device, and the problem of circular processing.If emergency situation, but operator's close the plant.And can factory be decommissioned by the button on the operation interface or by the emergency stop in the factory.
Following result is drawn by another SOAP factory:
The sum of-real work day: 15 (comprising 24 hours zone shutdown and 24 hours servicing time)
Total hours of-factory's running in during this period: 153 (88% is effective)
-ultimate production: 845 tons (average 9.3% ash content, specific energy GAD of 45.5% moisture and 31.52MJ/ kilogram)
The average consumprion of one ton of coal of-every product (10% adjustable moisture): 107 liters
The result of another test shows: the yield rate between turn(a)round is 64%.Oil consumption in the monitoring phase in three weeks shows: reclaiming salable oil per ton on average needs 107 liters of oil.
The high frequency screening technology can be produced the product of Duoing than expected value under the operational condition of routine.
We test the many kinds of methods that the dusting cover switchboard of laser cutting is fixed on the high frequency.The purpose of these tests is to seek a kind of fixing means, and this method can not only make condensation product farthest dewater, and keeps throughput simultaneously, and makes the longest-lived of sieve.
The important factor of the oily coacervation success that grease separation is selected is :-according to the content of coal in the mud, rather than the content of all solids, only use feed rate meter, densometer and ash content meter to adjust the dispensing of emulsion.So just reduced the influence of content of mineral substances.-high-frequency high-speed shear agitation method guarantees that oil consumption is minimum, and the oil in water emulsion of this technology of feeding is forming condensation product and making condensation product change broad aspect very effective; The exploitation of emulsion chemistry allows to use in the method a spot of waste oil; On high frequency sieve, use the thin sieve plate of laser cutting, thereby make coal dewatering agglomerated together and mineral substance is separated with condensation product.
Those skilled in the art should be realized that: under the prerequisite that does not break away from protection domain of the present invention, can make various variation and modification to the present invention.
