Under a cost-shared Department of Energy contract, awarded as part of the Coal Preparation Program`s High Efficiency Preparation subprogram, Custom Coals International will be installing and testing 227 kg/hr micronized-magnetite cycloning circuit in PETC`s Coal Preparation Process Research Facility. The project includes the design, construction, testing, and decommissioning of a fully integrated circuit complete with feed coal classification to remove the minus-30-micron material, dense-medium cycloning of the 300 by 30 micron feed coal using micronized magnetite (<10 microns), and medium recovery via drain and rinse screening and various stages and types of magnetic separation. This paper will describe the micronized-magnetite beneficiation technology and the scope of work for this project including an update on the status of the project, the circuit, and the proposed test plan.
