Recovery of heavy medium in coal washing plant using a …
The implementation of heavy medium coal washing technique is based on the density stability of the separation system, which is controlled by the heavy medium suspension to perform the separation. The separation of clean coal, medium coal, and gangue is realized based on the separation equipment such as the dense medium cyclone [4], [5], [6] .
