An aqueous suspension of ultrafine particles of moderately hydrophobic Colchester Seam coal from Illinois was treated with heptane or hexadecane in a laboratory mixing unit which produced a moderate shear rate. Under these conditions, air had to be present to produce compact, nearly spherical agglomerates. In addition, considerable heptane or hexadecane had to be used together with prolonged agitation Conditions which produced a large yield of compact, spherical agglomerates also provided a good separation of a mixture of coal and kaolin particles.
