Screening

The data below were obtained on the operation of a 6-mesh (square) hummer screen at the tipple of a coal mine. The screening was done to separate a very fine refuse from a fine coal stream so that it could be reprocessed. Calculate (a) the recovery and rejection of each size fraction and (b) the screen effectiveness .Feed is 131tons/hr and a Size +1/4 in ¼ x6 mesh 6 x 14 14 x 28 28 x48 48 x 0

Sample Weight 3825 grams 1006 750 303 219 807

Overflow from screen Size sample Wt. +1’4 in 2905 grams ¼ x 6 mesh 767 14 x 28 117 28 x 48 68 48 x 0 278

Underflow from screen (9.8 Tons/hr) Dry Solids Size % Sample 1/4x 6 11.3 6x8 7.8 8 x14 6.9 14 x 48 8.6 28 x 48 3.3 48 x 0 62.1

Solution:

Very fine particles (coal) will be reprocess to fine coal, therefore Oversize= P 0.05 moisture 131 (Feed in tons/hr) 0.95 dry Fdry= 124.45 P= 114.65

9.8 (tons/hr dry solid)

the tipple of a coal mine. could be reprocessed. eness .Feed is 131tons/hr and approximately 5% moisture.

Screening

What is the power requirement to crush 100 tons per hour of limestone if 80% of the feed passes a 2-inch screen and 80% of the product passes a 1/8-inch screen? Use Bond’s law. Wi =12.74 kW-hr/ton. Solution: Dp1=

2 inch x25.4 mm/1 inch = 50.8

Dp2= 3.175mm mm

P/m = 0.3162Wi [(1/√Dp2) – (1/√Dp1)] P= ###

kW-hr/ton.

Given the screen analysis of a product, determine the particle size based on (a) weight mean diameter and (b) surface mean diameter. Size of apperture, in mm through 6 on 4 on 2 on 0.75 on 0.55 on 0.25 on 0.125 through 0.125

% product based on no. of particles 100 6 18 23 8 17 3 5

Solution: Dp ave. -6 + 4 (6+4)/2 = 5 -4 +2 (4+2)/2 = 3 -2 + 0.75 (2+0.75)/2 = 1.38 -0.75+0.5 (0.75+0.5)/2 = 0.63 -0.5+0.25 (0.5+0.25)/2 = 0.38 -0.25+0.125(0.25+0.125)/2= 0.19 -0.125+0 0.13 0.13 ∑
