Characterization of Flocs in Dewatering of Coal Plant Tailings

Öz:
FLocculation is a widely used method for dewatering fine coal tailings. Flocs must resist to the shear stresses during the following processes such as flotation, cyclone separation, and pumping. Therefore, the strength of the flocs must be considered during flocculation. Inthis study, the fine coal tailings were dewatered with an anionic flocculant (SNF-923) at various dosages, and the floc size of the coal tailings was characterized using a laser diffractionparticle size analyzer with respect to time in order to determine the change in the floc sizeand hence the floc strength. The results of this study clearly indicated that the determination of the floc size with a laser particle size analyzer could be a simple and good method toobserve the flocculation efficiency in terms of the floc strength.
