Coal Preparation. Robert A. Meyers, ... Janusz S. Laskowski, in Encyclopedia of Physical Science and Technology (Third Edition), 2003 IV Float-and-Sink Analysis. Most coal cleaning processes that are used to remove inorganic impurities from coal are based on the gravity separation of the coal from its associated gangue. ROM coal consists of …
The typical values for ACs based on wood, coconut shells, and coal are 2–3% w/w, 5% w/w, and 8–15% w/w, respectively. Ash decreases both the total activity of AC and the effectiveness of reactivation; the amount is solely based on the base raw material used to make the AC (e.g., coconut, wood, coal).
