In this research study, we focus on the tree test results as well first-order kinetic model to evaluate flotation data propose a conceptual design of circuit for specific coal sample. Results from showed it was possible achieve product with ash content less than 10% 8% combustible recovery and indicated sample, obtain low – condition. Kinetic some streams had same constant, so could combine sim...

As a tool for exploration of concealed coal seams by modern techniques, determination of the depth of erosion of coal seams with reference to the surface of angular unconformity underlying the remnants of a key bed is conducted for the first time in coal mines of Kerman region. The angular unconformity surface (the initial surface exposure of coal seams) separates the coal seams of Jurassic age...

soil contamination in the vicinity of the abandoned lakan lead and zinc mine was studied. the results showed that over the past decades, the environmental pollution was caused by lead, zinc tailings dam and acid mine drainage. the average of lead, zinc, cadmium, copper and nickel is 1295, 4273, 27, 185 and 92 mg/kg, respectively in the soils of tailings dam. these metals were continuously dispe...

tabas mines in iran have coal sources which are suitable for use in metallurgy industries as coking coal. but the high sulfur content of this coal imposes severe limitations on its utilization as the sulfur oxide gases evolved from the combustion of high sulfur coals result in acid rains and corrosion of equipments. in this work, attempts have been made to reduce sulfur from high sulfur coal of...

the volumetric changes in the coal matrix (coal shrinkage), permeability under various gas environment conditions as well as perographical properties were studied in the laboratory. the shrinkage and permeability of coal were examined with respect to changing gas type and confining pressures. the shrinkage tests were carried out in high-pressure bombs while the permeability study was conducted ...

The Outburst can be defined as a sudden release of coal and rock accompanied by large quantities of gas into the underground coal mine workings which represents a major hazard in underground coal mines. Gas drainage has been proven to be successful in reducing outburst hazards by decreasing the in-situ gas pressure. One of aspect of gas drainage from coal seams is coal matrix volume changes. Cu...

Abstract Coal mining in China is continually increasing, and the associated emitted coal mine dust of growing environmental occupational concern. In this study, deposited (DD) was analysed three different regions an active, highly-volatile bituminous open-pit Xingjian Province, Northwest China: working fronts, tailings handling sites, road traffic sites. Samples were for particle size, geochemi...

Bauxite residue is an alkaline, saline tailings material generated as a byproduct of the Bayer process used for alumina refining. Developing effective plans for the long term management of potential environmental impacts associated with storage of these tailings is dependent on understanding how the chemical and mineralogical properties of the tailings will change during weathering and transfor...

Bioaccessibility tests and mineralogical analyses were performed on arsenic-contaminated tailings and soils from gold mine districts of Nova Scotia, Canada, to examine the links between soil composition, mineralogy, and arsenic bioaccessibility. Arsenic bioaccessibility ranges from 0.1% to 49%. A weak correlation was observed between total and bioaccessible arsenic concentrations, and the arsen...
