Air Pulsated Jigs. An air-pulsated jig has teen widely adopted as a main coal washer. It may be mainly because of its many technical and economic features such as large capacity, low running cost, long life, etc. However, the recent increasing demand of fuel coal requires a higher productivity and efficiency of the air-pulsated jig.

(16 mesh). The allair®-jig can either be integrated with the existing coal handling system at the mine or installed downstream from the primary crusher at the power plant. The allair®-jig is also suitable for the cleaning of different raw and recycling mate-rials like rubble or slag. The only prerequisite is a difference in the particle density.
One approach to improve the jig separation of coal and gangue minerals below 10 mm is to increase the density difference between coal and gangue minerals through the preferential attachment of bubbles on target minerals, which can be implemented in the "hybrid jig". Separation in the hybrid jig occurs by combining of the …
Among these techniques, air jigs and air-dense medium fluidized bed for pneumatic beneficiation have been commercialized and being applied in many countries. These processes are basically depending on the differences in characteristics of coal and gangue minerals such as density, particle size, and shape factors.
There are 3 commonly used Jig machines, which are diaphragm jig, air pulsating jig and moving jig. #1 Diaphragm Jig. Diaphragm jig is a type of jigging machine that is widely used in gravity separation plants, whose working principle is to drive the diaphragm by eccentric connecting rod, cam lever or hydraulic device causing …
The hybrid jig, which combines the principles of jig separation and flotation, was recently developed to separate mixed-plastics with similar specific gravities (SG) effectively. In this type of jig, air bubbles are introduced during water pulsation to modify the apparent SG (SGapparent) of plastics by the attachment of air bubbles to the particles …

An improved air jig apparatus and method is disclosed in which a dry magnetic separator is used to separate paramagnetic and ferromagnetic minerals from the dust component of coal cleaned with the air jig. The cleaned product of the dry magnetic separator is combined with the cleaned product of the air jig thereby improving both the …
Jig has developed for one hundred years. In a jig, different density particle could be stratified by the influence of fluctuating water flow. Because of its strong technical advantages, it has been widely applied in the field of mineral separation engineering [1], [2] and other field (such as wastes recycling) [3], [4].With the development of technology, …
The RETAC jig (R&E, Co., Ltd., Japan), a modified Takakuwa Air Chamber Under Bed (TACUB) jig (commercially known as BATAC jig), was developed by the authors to address this issue and specifically ...
Sorting coal using x-ray transmission sensors has been explored since 1972 by Jenkinson et al. Coal sortability is assessed using washability derived from dual-energy X-Ray transmission (DE-XRT) system. Coal sorting is considered to be dry separation of coal that can be carried out before coal is send to the processing plant.
Figure 1 shows size by size cumulative float curves for the Batac jig feed. It can be observed that each size fraction has different washability characteristics as manifested in the float curves. The curves from right to left indicate better washability characteristics with superior yield of clean coal at a specified ash content, e.g. 18% …
The fine particulates cause instability by generating large gas bubbles and eddies inside the fluidized bed [3], [6]. At present, several washeries in India are using air jigs of a 50 tonne h − 1 capacity for coarse coal separation [8]. The gravity-based techniques are inefficient in processing fine coals while the response to the tribo ...
This paper proposes pre-beneficiation studies by air jigs of the coal layers from a Moatize coal deposit. Pre-beneficiation, also called destoning, removes tailings before the beneficiation plant. The air jigs operate in the same granulometric size range as the heavy-media cyclones (HMCs) that are installed in the preparation plant. With the …

Tests conducted with 6.3 3.35mm (and 3.35 1.4 mm size fractions showed that the air table was able to reduce the ash from 27% to 10-12% ash with a clean coal yield of 75-80%. The ash rejection was about 77-80% with a combustible recovery of around 95% indicating excellent separation efficiency.
Gravity separation is a method in which materials/minerals are separated based upon the difference in particles density [1]. Water as a medium is an important factor in improving the differential movement between various particles during gravity separation and eventually sorting different particles [2]. When water is removed, and air plays the ...
