Abstract

In general, the Indian coals are difficult-to-wash due to their drift origin. Recovery of clean coal from coal fines is continue to he cost in-effective. Even though several advanced flotation technologies have been commercialized to treat fines, the results are not comparable with the washability data of fines. The Jharia group of coal fines are treated at Tata Steel presently in froth flotation. Keeping merit of gravity separation in view, the test results with water-only cyclone as an alternative gravity method to froth flotation for treating Jamadoba coal fines have been presented in this paper.
