An improved system for automation of the flotation section of the Zaporozhye Coking Plant including control of the density and average particle size in the feedstock and regulation of addition of reagents in the overall flow is described. A block diagram of the system is included. The use of this automated system along with application of corrections to the reagent system at the flotation section improved the process and made it more economical. The ash content of the flotation wastes increased by 5-8%, the flotation-concentrate output increased by 0.5%, and its ash content was lowered by 0.2-0.4% using the automated system.
