DEVELOPMENT OF COAL DRY BENEFICIATION WITH AIR-DENSE MEDIUM FLUIDIZED BED IN CHINA

In China more than two-thirds of available coal reserves are in arid areas, where, to beneficiate the run-of-mine coal,there is not enough water resource required by conventional processing. Developing efficient dry beneficiation technology is of great significance for efficient coal utilization in China, notably the clean coal technology (CCT). The dry coal beneficiation technology with air-dense medium fluidized bed utilizes air-solid suspension as beneficiating medium whose density is consistent for beneficiation, similar in principle to the wet dense medium beneficiation using liquid-solid suspension as separating medium. The heavy portion in feedstock whose density is higher than the density of the fluidized bed will sink, whereas the lighter portion will float, thus stratifying the feed materials according to their density.In order to obtain efficient dry separation in air-dense medium fluidized bed, stable fluidization with well dispersed micro-bubbles must be achieved to ensure low viscosity and high fluidity. The pure buoyancy of beneficiation materials plays a main role in fluidized bed, and the displaced distribution effect should be restrained. The displaced distribution effects include viscosity displaced distribution effect and movement displaced distribution effect. The former is caused by viscosity of the fluidized bed. It decreases with increasing air flow velocity. Movement displaced distribution effect will be large when air flow rate is too low or too high. If medium particle size distribution and air flow are well controlled, both displaced distribution effects could be controlled effectively. A beneficiation displaced distribution model may be used to optimize beneficiation of feedstock with a wide particle size distribution and multiple components in the fluidized bed. The rheological characteristics of fluidized beds were studied using the falling sphere method. Experimental results indicated that the fluidized bed behaves as a Bingham fluid. The plastic viscosity and yield stress can be obtained by measurement of the terminal settling velocity of spheres and linear regression of the experimental data. Both plastic viscosity and yield stress increase with increasing size of the fluidized particles. The drag coefficient can be calculated with favorable agreement with experimental data.The first dry coal beneficiation plant with air-dense medium fluidized bed was established by CUMT with an output of 320000 t.a-1 and a probable error Ep value up to 0.05 was achieved. The plant was accepted by the Chinese government in June, 1994. Since then, new applications have been found including a 700000 t.a-1 dry coal beneficiation plant put up for commercial testing. To realize coal dry beneficiation of full size range of 300～0 mm, further research on dry coal beneficiation of different size fractions has been under way at the Mineral Processing Research Center of CUMT, leading to the following results:● Dry beneficiation technology with a vibrated air-dense medium fluidized bed for fine coal of size fraction 6～0.5 mm Ash content was reduced from 16.57% to 8.35%, with yield up to 80.20% and Ep value up to 0.065.● Coal dry beneficiation technology with a deep air-dense medium fluidized bed for ＞50 mm coal An Ep value up to 0.02 was achieved. This technology is of great value for waste removal from 300～50 mm large feedstock, especially for big surface mines in China.● Coal triboelectric cleaning technology for ＜1 mm pulverized Coal Coal is comminuted down to 320 mesh (0.043 mm) to fully liberate the embedded minerals, yielding an ultra-low ash coal (less than 2%). Currently a pilot system with triboelectric cleaning has successfully passed technical appraisal.● Three-product beneficiation technology with dual-density fluidized bedThis technology yields three products: clean coal, middling and tailing, with the following typical results: Ep value of 0.06～0.09 for the upper layer with a density of 1.5～1.54 g.cm-3 and Ep value of 0.09～0.11 for the lower layer with density of 1.84～1.9 g.cm-3.

Elemental Analysis of Stone Fruits by Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometry and Direct Mercury Analysis

This study reports the concentrations of eight trace essential (Zn, Mn, Cu, Ni, Cr, Co, V, and Se) and four toxic elements (Pb, As, Cd, and Hg) in commonly consumed stone fruits from South Korea. The samples were digested by microwave-induced combustion and analyzed by inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS). The concentrations of mercury were analyzed by direct mercury analysis (DMA). The analytical techniques were validated by linearity, limits of detection and quantification, precision, recovery, and for accuracy by analyzing a spinach leave-certified reference material; satisfactory results were obtained in all cases. The concentrations of essential trace elements varied considerably among the stone fruits. Generally stone fruits contained comparatively high concentrations of Zn (0.946 to 7.86?µg/g) and Mn (below the limit of detection to 1.66?µg/g), while lower contents of Cu (0.214 to 1.24?µg/g), Cr (0.032 to 0.114?µg/g), Ni (0.006 to 0.091?µg/g), Co (0.004 to 0.016?µg/g), V (below the limit of detection to 0.023?µg/g), and Se (0.0002 to 0.005?µg/g) were obtained. The concentrations (µg/g) of toxic metals were 0.007 (peach) to 0.016 (cherry) for Pb, 0.001 (plum) to 0.007 (cherry) for As, 0.002 (apricot and cherry) to 0.003 (peach) for Cd, and 0.0003 (peach) to 0.0016 (jujube) for Hg. The values for the estimated dietary intakes, target hazard quotients, and hazard indices were lower than the recommended safety limits by World Health Organization. Therefore, the analyzed stone fruits were deemed to be safe for human consumption.

选取安徽褐煤、辽宁褐煤和贵州烟煤三种煤为原料,以油溶性环烷酸钼为催化剂,分别与马瑞常渣(MRAR)、克炼常渣(KAR)以及催化裂化油浆(FCCS)在高压釜内模拟悬浮床加氢共炼反应。结果表明,不同的油体系下,两种褐煤都能达到83%以上的转化率,而对于贵州烟煤,转化率最高的FCCS体系与最低的KAR体系分别为67.75%和50.31%,相差很大。采用FT-IR和SEM分析反应后固体残渣,计算了固体残渣中脂肪族和芳香族中各个基团的相对含量,并对比了不同体系反应后固体残渣的微观形貌。结果表明,KAR体系的固体残渣脂肪链较长,支链化程度高,取代度较低。转化率较高的褐煤反应后固体残渣结构松散,分散度高;转化率较低的烟煤固体残渣随着转化率降低,残渣颗粒逐渐变大,表面更加光滑,板结程度加深。     

法向载荷和滑动速度对GCr15钢干滑动摩擦的影响

本文研究了在干滑动摩擦情况下,GCr15钢与YG8硬质合金对磨时的摩擦系数与法向载荷及滑动速度的关系。结果表明,摩擦系数是随着法向载荷和滑动速度的增加而降低。根据磨损表面发生的变化和磨损表面温度计算,作者认为法向载荷和滑动速度的增加使闪温增高,从而导致了摩擦磨损表面的局部熔化,即形成了边界润滑,故此摩擦系数降低,而且在较高的载荷和滑动速度条件下,不同显微组织材料的摩擦系数之差减小。     

Effect of low-temperature processing on dry film photoresist properties for flexible electronics

This study presents the mechanical characterization of the dry film photoresist PerMX and its adhesion properties when laminated onto Kapton® E (PI) and Melinex® ST506 (PET). Additionally, the processing temperature, the adhesion strength, and the neutral plane position are investigated and optimized. A relatively low-temperature (85 °C) process is developed to protect the integrity of the polymers with low glass transition temperature and reduce the thermal mismatch stress. Reduction in processing temperature led to a decrement in the adhesion strength. To counteract this unwanted effect, surface treatments (oxygen plasma) are performed on the polymer surface before lamination. Using the latter techniques, adhesion of PerMX to PET (hard bake: 1 h at 85 °C) is increased from 0.07 to 0.26 N mm⁻¹ (variation of 270%). Finally, the mechanical robustness is investigated and increased by tuning the position of the neutral plane, after 50,000 bending cycles and a radius of curvature of 2.5 mm. © 2013 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

The dielectric properties of dry and water-saturated nylon-12

The dielectric relaxation of 30% crystalline Nylon-12 of molecular weight 20,000 has been studied at frequencies from 12 Hz to 0.1 MHz and temperatures from 77 to 375 K, and the effect of water on the relaxation spectra has been investigated. Absorbed water increases both the rate and the intensity of both its α-and β-relaxation processes and increases the rate but decreases the intensity of its γ-relaxation process. These results are interpreted in terms of the hydrogen bonding effects of water on localized motions of dipoles in Nylon-12. The relatively large half-width of the α-relaxation, which becomes better resolved at high temperatures, is attributed mainly to the random distribution of crystalline regions in the polymer. It is suggested that water lowers the steric hindrance for the localized mode of dipolar reorientation and causes a redistribution of local sites such that the β-relaxation process grows at the expense of the γ-process.
