6 (v)project Description with Process details (a schematic diagram/ Flow chart showing the project layout, components of the project etc. should be given. Selection Of Technology Factors effecting the selection of technology The washability characteristics and fractional analysis of crushed coal determines the quality of end product. Typical Screen analysis & washing investigations of some coal samples of Dipka Open Cost Mine of SECL are shown in Appendix-2/a,b,c,d, which is helped as guidelines for deciding washing technology. Quality required by the customers: The requirement from the customers forms the basis of technology selection. The quality requirement of coal by Power Houses is: 32% ash and for cement and sponge iron is about 28%. Therefore, the design of the washery incorporates flexibility so that the end product meets the requirement of the customers. The washability characteristics and fractional analysis of coal determine the quality of coal. Selection of Technology Some of the most commonly known technologies / Systems/ Practices for coal washing are as under- Heavy Media Cyclone System Heavy Media Bath System Barrel System Wet Jig System Dry Jig System 6

7 Considering the screen analysis, washing characteristics of available coal and customer requirement, the company has decided to go for adopting most modern and efficient washing technology with Heavy Media Cyclone System. Process Details The proposed Coal Washery will incorporate the latest design and equipments and will be based on Heavy Media Cyclone System The process will be as given below:- 1. ROM Coal (0-400mm) will be received on Grizzly having 300x300mm aperture on Ground Hopper-I through trippers. 2. The stone of +300mm size will be picked manually from over the Grizzly and thrown away. 3. The coal lumps of +300mm size, if any, will be broken manually to pass through Grizzly. 4. This ROM Coal will be delivered to Ground Hopper through the said grizzly and delivered further to a Belt Conveyor through a Vibrating Feeder below the Hopper. 5. Stone prices will be picked out manually at picking station situated on the sides of the Belt Conveyor to the extent possible. 6. This ROM Coal will be further delivered to Rotary Breaker of 200 TPH through transfer point which will yield -50mm size coal. 7. Rotary Breaker rejects will be received by a Conveyor and carried to Rotary Breaker Reject Dumps. 7

8 8. 0 to -50mm size coal will be carried to Screen House through Belt Conveyor. 9. This coal may be delivered to 10 mm Screen to -10mm size Coal Fines will be carried to Coal Fine Dumps through a Belt Conveyor mm to -50mm size coal will be carried through a Belt Conveyor to Surge Bunker. 12. Coal from Surge Bunker will be carried to Sieve Bend and disclaiming Screen at washery Building where dust (fines) coal particles will be washed by spray of water received from Magnetic Separator and fresh water reservoir. 13. This coal without fine coal dust will be delivered to Heavy Media Tank having Heavy Media of required specific gravity (mixture of Magnetite and water). 14. The Fine Coal Slurry from the Sieve Bend and disclaiming Screen will be carried to a Fine Coal Slurry Tank. 15. A mixture of Heavy Media & Coal will be pumped from Heavy Media Tank to Heavy Media Cyclone. 16. The overflow of Heavy Media Cyclone (clean coal) will be delivered to a set-of Sieve Bend and D&R Screen and further delivered to the Clean Coal Conveyor. This product is carried to a clean coal loadout bin which has Clamshell gate at the discharge for loading coal onto trucks directly. 8

9 17. The underflow of Heavy Media Cyclone (reject coal) will be delivered to another set-of Sieve Bend and D&R Screen and further delivered to reject coal conveyor. This product is carried to loadout bin which has Clamshell gate at the discharge for loading this reject coal into trucks directly for disposal. 18. In the first section of both the D&R Screens (drain sections) the water and magnetite slurry is drained partially. This drained Magnetic Slurry flows back to the heavy media sump. 19. In the second section of the D&R screens (rinse sections) water jets are used to wash the magnetite sticking to the body of clean/reject coal. The rinse water being of a lower specific gravity has to be processed through a Wet Drum Magnetic Separator (5000LPM of Magnetic Slurry) where magnetite from the rinse water is concentrated and sent back to the Heavy Media Sump (25CU.M) for make-up. 20. The trailing (mostly water with fine coal dust) from Wet Magnetic Separator is directed to mix with fresh water supply and is spread over from feed coal received from surge bunker over sieve bend dislimming screen. 21. After removing fine coal dust from body of (+10-50) mm coal the fine coal slurry (affluent) is collected in fine coal slurry tank. 22. The fine coal slurry from fine coal slurry tank is pumped to Hydro Classifying cyclone. 23. The underflow of Hydro Classifying cyclone containing fine solid particles of coal dust are directed to High Frequency Screen. 9

10 24. The solid fine coal from top of High Frequency Screen is directed to clean coal belt to get mixed with clean coal. 25. The rinse water of High Frequency Screen is directed to fine coal slurry tank. 26. The overflow of Hydro Classifying cyclone having very fine coal dust is directed to affluent treatment plant. 27. The effluent treatment plant consists of one Hi-Rate Thickener and its associated with Flocculent Dosing System, underflow sludge carrying pump and a Multiroll Belt Press or settling tank (optional) 28. The effluent from the plant which reports to the hi-rate thickener is collected in the thickener tank. This tank is dosed with suitable amounts of flocculent which aids faster suspension of solids and helps to give a clearer overflow. 29. The settled solids are collected at the bottom cone of the thickener tank by rotating rake arms the height of which can be adjusted if the amount of solids in the effluents varies. The solids which are collected in the bottom of the thickener flows to the settling pond/settling tank for reclamation of water. The dewatered solid are blended with the reject coal. 30. The overflow of the thickener which is clear water is pumped back for recirculation to the plant. 31. The proposed plant is a zero effluent plant and the process selected ensures minimum generation of dust. The washing process flow sheet is shown as Figure 5 10
