Coal Fine Drying Method And System
US Patent:
2011007, Apr 7, 2011
Filed:
Sep 30, 2010
Appl. No.:
12/924570
Inventors:
Richard W. Bland - Beckley WV, US
Philip Harsh - Blandon PA, US
Michael Hurley - Lancaster PA, US
Andrew K. Jones - Lancaster PA, US
Vinod K. Sikka - Oak Ridge TN, US

International Classification:
F26B 7/00, F26B 17/00, F26B 9/00
US Classification:
34354, 34 95
Abstract:
The present invention provides a method and system for drying coal fines using molecular sieves. The method and system dries the coal fines by combining coal fines with the molecular sieves. While in combination, the mixture is agitated to maximize surface contact between the molecular sieves and the coal fines. As the coal fines contact the molecular sieves, the surfactant moisture on the coal fines is then absorbed by the molecular sieves. The molecular sieves allow for the water molecules to pass into the sieves, thus being removed from the coal fines. After a period of agitation, the method and system thereby separates the molecular sieves and the coal fines.
Mineral Slurry Drying Method And System
US Patent:
2011025, Oct 20, 2011
Filed:
Jun 24, 2011
Appl. No.:
13/168169
Inventors:
Richard W. Bland - Beckley WV, US
Bruce McDaniel - Midlothian VA, US
Bruce McDaniel - Midlothian VA, US
International Classification:
F26B 5/16, F26B 13/26
US Classification:
34333, 34334, 34 95
Abstract:
The present invention provides a method and system for drying mineral slurry concentrate and high moisture content minerals using activated alumina. The method and system dries the mineral slurry concentrate by combining the slurry with the activated alumina. While in combination, the mixture is agitated to maximize surface contact between the activated alumina and the slurry. As the mineral slurry concentrate contacts the activated alumina, the surfactant moisture on the mineral elements is then absorbed by the activated alumina. The activated alumina allow for the water molecules to be adsorbed by the activate alumina, thus being removed from the slurry elements. After a period of agitation, the method and system thereby separates the activated alumina from the mineral slurry concentrate.
