Definitions

  • THIS invention relates to a belt filter apparatus.
  • the invention concerns a belt filter apparatus for use in drying fine material, typically fine coal.
  • the invention also extends to a method of drying fine material.
  • Coal which is mined from the ground often contains unwanted impurities such as carbonaceous and non-carbonaceous material which are reduced to various different sized fragments. Users of coal, however, normally require coal of consistent quality. For this reason mined coal should undergo a process referred to as beneficiation, also known as coal preparation or coal washing. Coal beneficiation refers to the treatment of coal to ensure consistent quality and to enhance its suitability for specific end-users.
  • the treatment of coal will be dependent upon the physical properties of the coal and its intended purpose. For certain applications the treatment may simply require crushing while in other instances it may be necessary for the coal to undergo a complex process for reducing impurities.
  • coal In order to remove impurities, coal is crushed and thereafter separated into various coal fractions, whereafter the fractions typically undergo a further treatment referred to as dense medium separation.
  • dense medium separation In this process, the coal is separated from impurities by being floated in a tank containing a liquid of specific gravity, usually water holding finely ground magnetite in suspension. Due to the fact that the coal is less dense than the liquid, it will float and can be separated off while heavier rock and other impurities sink and can be removed as waste.
  • the process of beneficiation typically generates a fine fraction referred to as slurry, a slightly coarser fraction which is known as duff and an even coarser fraction known as discard.
  • a fine fraction referred to as slurry
  • slightly coarser fraction which is known as duff
  • an even coarser fraction known as discard.
  • the moisture would need to be removed from the fine fractions.
  • a South African context water is a scarce commodity and the use thereof consequently strictly controlled by the South African Department of Water Affairs and Forestry. It will, therefore, be appreciated that coal should be separated from the water in the slurry and duff in such a manner that the water can be re-used in future beneficiation processes.
  • the mining industry has for this reason developed various methods for drying fine and ultra fine materials. These methods typically utilise drying beds, belt filter presses and hydraulic filter presses. A brief description of the mentioned methods is provided below together with advantages and drawbacks associated with the methods.
  • Drying beds are normally provided by constructing lined, large surface area dams into which slurry can be placed.
  • the water can hereafter be removed from the drying beds with the use of, for example, penstock systems. Water is decanted from the surface of the slurry, the so-called supernatant water, and once the drying beds are dry the fine material is mechanically excavated and sold. Making use of drying beds has the advantage that once the drying beds are in place, drying costs are minimal while the drying beds can handle large volumes of slurry.
  • the drawbacks of making use of drying beds include a substantial capital outlay for constructing such drying beds, loss of water due to evaporation, loss of income due to delays during the period of drying, a potential for environmental spills due to over-topping and chemical breakdown of coal due to prolonged exposure to oxidation.
  • a belt filter press typically comprises two belts between which slurry can be placed and thereafter pressed.
  • a belt filter also makes use of a vacuum for sucking water from the filter.
  • the advantages of using a belt filter press includes that continued drying can take place, a relative small operating area is required and water that is removed from slurry can be recovered immediately. Further advantages include that the dried product can be added to the product line and a relatively quick turnaround of revenue is possible.
  • the drawbacks of using belt filter presses include high installation costs, high material and maintenance costs and consequential high running costs.
  • a very important drawback of making use of a belt filter press is that by compressing hydraulically placed material, the permeability of such material is reduced with a consequential reduction in the ability of extracting all free water. Compressing the water containing material only serves to increase the pore pressure of the material with the consequential result that the largest volume of water is extracted prior to compaction. Energy which is therefore used with a view of removing free water is in fact wasted.
  • a hydraulic filter press comprises a bag in which fine material can be placed whereafter the material in the bag can be compressed hydraulically.
  • the hydraulic filter press also makes use of a vacuum for sucking water from the bag. Upon completion of a drying cycle, batch material is blown from the bag into a bin and the cycle repeated.
  • Advantages of making use of a hydraulic filter press include fast recovery of water, a minimal potential for detrimental environmental impact and fast realisation of a saleable product.
  • the drawbacks of hydraulic filter presses include high installation costs, high running and maintenance costs as well as batch processing, i.e. there is no continuous flow of material and consequently large volumes of liquid should be stored.
  • Making use of hydraulic filter presses also results in compressed materials with increased pore pressure and reduced permeabilities similar to the situation with belt filter presses.
  • a belt filter apparatus comprising:
  • the permeable fabric of the first and second belt filter sections is a non-woven fabric or a micro-pore fabric.
  • the permeable fabric of the first and second belt filter sections includes reinforcing.
  • the permeable fabric of the first and second belt filter sections has a permeability of not less than 10 ⁇ 3 cm/s.
  • the permeable fabric of the first and second belt filter sections is a geo-fabric which is reinforced with nylon netting.
  • first and second belt filter sections are formed by providing a first set of pulleys and a second set of pulleys about which a single belt filter can be moved.
  • the means for mechanically placing the partially dry fine material comprises an impulse blower which is located proximate a drop-off point between the first belt filter section and the second belt filter section, in use the impulse blower serving to impart jets of air onto the first belt filter section such that the partially dry fine material on the belt filter can be forced therefrom to fall onto the second belt filter section.
  • the means for mechanically placing the partially dry fine material comprises a cam which is located proximate a drop-off point between the first belt filter section and the second belt filter section, in use the cam serving to impact on the first belt filter section thereby forcing the partially dry fine material to fall onto the second belt filter section.
  • the belt filter apparatus includes an agitator formation for redistributing partially dry fine material on the first belt filter section and/or the second belt filter section.
  • the agitator formation is provided in the form of at least one blower and/or at least one rotatable cam.
  • the liquid collection arrangement includes liquid collectors which are locatable below the first and second belt filter sections for collecting liquid which is removed from the fine material during the first and second drying cycles.
  • the liquid collection arrangement also includes ducting for providing fluid communication between the liquid collectors and a liquid storage container.
  • the method of drying fine material includes the step of providing a vacuum which is in fluid communication with the first and the second belt filter sections.
  • the mixture of liquid and fine material is coal slurry.

  • a single belt filter 22 is wrapped about the first and second set of pulleys 18 and 20 respectively to provide a first and second belt filter section 24 and 26 .
  • the belt filter 22 is produced from a non-woven fabric having a permeability of at least 10 ⁇ 3 cm/s.
  • the fabric is a geo-fabric produced by Kaytech and sold under the trade name BiddumTM.
  • the fabric of the belt filter 22 is reinforced with nylon netting.
  • a number of liquid collectors 28 . 1 , 28 . 2 , . . . , 28 .n are provided under the belt filter 22 in each of the first and second belt filter sections 24 and 26 .

  • the liquid collectors 28 . 1 , 28 . 2 , . . . , 28 .n and ducting 34 provide a liquid collection arrangement which is generally indicated with the reference numeral 29 .
  • the means for mechanically placing 36 is formed by firstly providing that the first belt filter section 24 includes a drop-off point 37 located between the first belt filter section 24 and the second belt filter section 26 and secondly by providing at least one impulse blower 38 which is placed adjacent the drop-off point 37 .
  • the impulse blower 38 imparting bursts of air onto the belt filter 22 at the drop-off point, all partially dry material on the belt filter 22 will be dislodged such that it can fall onto the second belt filter section 26 thereby being mechanically placed. The reason for placing partially dry fine material mechanically unto the second belt filter section 26 will be discussed below.
  • the belt filter apparatus 10 further includes an agitator formation, indicated with the reference numeral 40 , for redistributing the fine material which is transported by the belt filter 22 in the second belt filter section 26 . By redistributing the partially dry material the permeability thereof is enhanced.
  • the agitator formation 40 is provided in the form of a cam which can rotate to impart blows on the belt filter 22 , thereby enhancing the permeability of the partially dry fine material on the second belt filter section 26 .
  • the functionality of the cam 40 will become apparent from the description that follows below.
  • coal slurry which is a mixture of fine coal material and water

  • a cyclone Simultaneous to, or just prior to the slurry being placed on the belt filter 22 , a cyclone, not shown in the drawings, will create a vacuum in the ducting 34 and consequently in the liquid collectors 28 . 1 , 28 . 2 ., . . . , 28 .n located underneath the belt filter 22 in the first and second belt filter sections 24 and 26 .

From the liquid collectors 28 . 1 , 28 . 2 , . . . 28 .n the collected water will be drawn via the ducting 34 to a liquid storage container, not shown in the drawings, for future re-use.
  • the slurry will have undergone a first drying cycle and partially dry fine coal material will have been formed.
  • the fine coal material will be aligned in such a manner that the optimum amount of fine coal material can be transported in a specific volume.
  • the result of this is a high bulk density with a very low degree of permeability such that once the slurry has undergone the first drying cycle, water may still be trapped between the particles of the fine coal material. It would, therefore, be appreciated that if the permeability of the fine coal material could be increased, trapped water could be released and removed from the fine coal material.
  • the fine coal material will have undergone a second drying cycle and will be dried to the satisfaction of an end user and ready for consumption by end-users.
  • the dry fine material is tipped unto a conveyor belt 44 to be transported to a storing facility.

  • the agitator formation 116 in this embodiment of the invention comprises a plurality of blowers 118 . 1 , 118 . 2 , . . . , 118 .n which serve to redistribute partially dry fine material on the first and the second belt filter sections 112 and 114 , such that the amount of trapped water being released from between the particles constituting the partially dry fine material can be increased, consequently enhancing the effectiveness of the belt filter apparatus 110 .
  • the agitator formation 116 serves to create mechanical lift of the solids constituting the fine material, so that the trapped liquid may fall past the solids and drain from the coal slurry. This mechanical lift is created in that the agitator formation 116 causes the fine material solids to bounce on the belt filter sections 112 and 114 .
  • the belt filter apparatus 110 further differs from the belt filter apparatus 10 in that it includes means for mechanically placing the partially dry fine material which is provided in the form of a rotatable cam 115 which is placed proximate a drop-off point 117 located between the first belt filter section and the second belt filter section.
  • the purpose of the cam 115 is to impact on the belt filter, thereby forcing the fine material on the belt filter to fall onto the second belt filter section.
  • the belt filter apparatus 110 differs from the belt filter apparatus 10 in that it includes removal means, here a further cam 120 , which is located towards the end of the second belt filter section 114 . In use the cam 120 will impact on the belt filter to ensure that all fine material is displaced therefrom.
  • the agitator formation could comprise a combination of cams and blowers.
  • the second belt filter section 114 need not necessarily be exposed include members of the agitator formation 116 and that only the first belt filter section 112 will be exposed to the effects of the agitator formation 116 .

  • Advantages of the belt filter apparatus and the method of the invention includes low implementation, operating and maintenance costs as well as immediate water recovery and recycling. Making use of a belt filter as described above further reduces down-time and consequently increases efficiency.
