摘要

A great potential market for high Btu midwestern thermal coal exists if the coal is desulfurized and prepared to meet environmental restriInrintions and utility customer specifications. Although midwestern coal is very high in pyritic sulfur, it can be adequately desulfurized by removing pyrite with the help of such physical coal cleaning techniques as froth flotation. Froth flotation cells are now commonly used in modern coal preparation plants for recovering the fines but they are not utilized for desulfurizing the coal due to a complete lack of system operating parameters for such applications. This research project was conducted to develop optimal system operating parameters and demonstrate the potential for desulfurization of Illinois Basin coal by froth flotation. Ten carefully drawn coal samples representative of the high-sulfur coal in Illinois Basin were used in the study. Optimal froth flotation systems operating parameters for desulfurizing the selected coal samples and removing the mineral matter have been developed. The results obtained with bench scale tests clearly indicate that the total sulfur in the Illinois high-sulfur thermal coals can be reduced to less than 1.5% with over 70% yield of clean coal by single stage froth flotation utilizing the optimal values of the system operating parameters. The ash in the coal samples was reduced by as much as 64% in the desulfurization process. These results were subsequently confirmed by pilot tests conducted in almost identical size froth flotation cells. The pilot scale test results confirm that the desulfurization results obtained in the bench scale tests should be easily obtainable in the commercial plants. Because the chemical reagents utilized in the process are minute in quantities, the cost of coal desulfurization by froth flotation is quite insignificant compared with the benefits derived. 4 figures, 26 tables.
