TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the field of coal separation, in particular to a two-stage separation process of rough separation and fine separation of raw coal with high heavy product content. BACKGROUND
[0002] In the field of coal separation, the proportion of low-density materials in the feed is usually large, and the proportions of medium-density and high-density materials are small. Through washing and separation, a large amount of clean coal can be produced, providing a prerequisite for efficient and clean use of coal and improving the economic benefits of enterprises. However, the occurrence conditions and coal quality of coal resources in China vary greatly. Some coal resources have high heavy product content and low light product content, that is, the proportion of medium-density and high-density materials is large, and the proportion of low-density materials is small. It is difficult to handle using traditional pressurized two-product dense medium cyclone, unpressurized or pressurized three-product dense medium cyclone. For example, a jigging medium coal unpressurized three-product dense medium cyclone re-separation system is disclosed in Chinese patent CN 109821648 B. Because the cone ratio of these three cyclones is a fixed value, the ratio of the underflow and overflow of the cyclone is determined, and it is suitable for feed with more light products and less heavy products. If these three processes are used to handle raw coal with high heavy product content, the underflow port will be blocked. In order to avoid blockage, the size or number of equipment needs to be increased, resulting in a phenomenon of big horse pulling small cart. In addition, when using pressurized dense medium cyclone, the feed is subjected to soaking in heavy medium, stirring and impact by the impeller of the feed pump, and long-distance pipeline transportation, which will produce a large amount of secondary coal slime, and is not suitable for coal quality conditions prone to slurry. SUMMARY
[0003] The present application provides a two-stage separation process of rough separation and fine separation of raw coal with high heavy product content, which is simple, has high separation precision, and is stable in operation, and is suitable for industrial production.
[0004] The technical scheme of the present application is as follows: a two-stage separation process of rough separation and fine separation of raw coal with high heavy product content, comprising the following steps:
[0005] a. Dry classification of raw coal to obtain sieve oversize I and sieve undersize I, and the sieve oversize I is fed into a movable sieve jig to obtain coarse clean coal I and gangue I;
[0006] b. Crushing the coarse clean coal I of step a, and mixing the crushing product with the sieve undersize I of step a, and then desliming to obtain sieve oversize II and sieve undersize II;
[0007] c. Feeding the sieve oversize II of step b into a cylindrical unpressurized two-product dense medium cyclone I for rough separation to obtain coarse clean coal II and gangue II;
[0008] d. The underflow of the step b is fed into a classifying cyclone to obtain an underflow and an overflow, the underflow is fed into a spiral separator to obtain a coarse clean coal III and a gangue III;
[0009] e. The coarse clean coal II of the step c and the coarse clean coal III of the step d are mixed and fed into a conical pressure two-product dense medium cyclone to obtain a clean coal I and a medium coal.
[0010] Further, when the raw coal is coking coal, the following steps are further included:
[0011] f. The overflow of the step d is fed into a flotation machine to obtain a clean coal II and a tail coal, the clean coal II is mixed into the clean coal I of the step e to obtain a clean coal product;
[0012] g. The flotation tail coal of the step f is mixed into the medium coal of the step e to obtain a medium coal product.
[0013] Further, when the raw coal is power coal, the overflow of the step d is mixed into the medium coal of the step e to obtain a medium coal product.
[0014] Further, the gangue II of the step c and the gangue III of the step d are mixed into the gangue I of the step a to obtain a gangue product.
[0015] Further, the particle size of the raw coal of the step a is 300-0 mm.
[0016] Further, the dry classification of the step a adopts an inclined linear vibrating screen, and the screen size is 35 or 50 mm.
[0017] Further, the particle size of the crushing product of the step b is 80-0 or 50-0 mm.
[0018] Further, the desliming of the step b adopts an inclined linear vibrating screen, and the screen gap size is 1, 2 or 3 mm.
[0019] Further, the classification particle size of the classifying cyclone of the step d is 0.25 or 0.5 mm.
[0020] The beneficial effects of the present application are:
[0021] (1) The moving sieve jig is adopted to pre-discharge a large amount of large block heavy products (gangue) with high efficiency and low operation cost, so that the amount of gangue entering the cylindrical pressureless two-product dense medium cyclone is effectively reduced, and the number or type of equipment in the subsequent link is reduced. If a large amount of gangue prone to mudification enters the subsequent dense medium separation link, the following adverse consequences will be caused: the mudification of the gangue causes the instability of the working dense medium properties; the subsequent separation product is difficult to be deslimed, which reduces the desliming effect, increases the number or type of equipment in the desliming link, and increases the medium consumption; the load of the flotation system and the coal slurry system is increased, the flotation effect is deteriorated, and the coal slurry is difficult to be clarified, and the pressure filtration dewatering effect is also reduced.
[0022] (2)Adopting the two-stage separation process of the cylindrical pressureless two-product dense medium cyclone + the conical pressurized two-product dense medium cyclone, when the throughput of the underflow (heavy product) or overflow (light product) of the first stage is large (40%-80% of the feed), normal production can be realized, and two flexible production modes can be realized, i.e., the first stage is roughing and the second stage is cleaning, or the first stage is cleaning and the second stage is scavenging. The first production mode is to discharge gangue in the first stage and to output clean coal and medium coal in the second stage. The second production mode is to output clean coal in the first stage and to output medium coal and gangue in the second stage. The traditional separation process is to adopt the conical pressurized two-product dense medium cyclone in both stages, and only the second production mode can be realized. Moreover, the underflow port of the conical pressurized two-product dense medium cyclone has limited discharge capacity for heavy products, which is about 20% of the feed. In order to meet normal production, the number or type of the dense medium cyclone needs to be greatly increased, which results in the phenomenon of "big horse pulling small cart".
[0023] (3)The moving sieve jig + the cylindrical pressureless two-product dense medium cyclone re-separation process can greatly reduce the amount of secondary slime, which is reduced by one time compared with the traditional conical pressurized two-product dense medium cyclone separation process.
[0024] (4)The 1-0.25mm fine coal roughing link is set, and the spiral separator is used to pre-discharge the high-ash fine gangue in the fine coal, which has the following beneficial effects: The high-ash fine gangue is easy to be slimed, and this part of material is discharged in advance to avoid large fluctuations in the properties of the heavy medium; The amount of slime entering the medium removal link is reduced, which is beneficial to improve the medium removal effect and reduce the medium consumption; The amount of high-ash secondary slime is reduced, the amount of feed entering the flotation system is reduced, the load of the subsequent flotation system and coal slurry system is reduced, the flotation effect is improved, and the efficiency of the coal slurry concentration filter recovery is also improved.
[0025] (5)The spiral separator roughing + the pressurized two-product dense medium cyclone cleaning two-stage process is used to separate fine coal, and the 1-0.25mm coarse clean coal and the 80-1mm coarse clean coal are mixed in the dense medium cyclone and are effectively separated in the cleaning link, which simplifies the process flow.
[0026] (6)The present application is suitable for coking coal and power coal with high heavy product content and easy sliming gangue, and has wide applicability. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF DRAWINGS
