Description

Fine coal waste has potential for both the recovery of a saleable fine coal fraction, by flotation or similar separation tool, and the re-purposing of the resultant bulk ash-rich fractions to soil fabrication. While, where these fractions are acid-generating, their preparation by two-stage flotation is preferred, in this project several fine coal waste fractions illustrated that they could be used directly in soil fabrication, improving the techno-economics.

What this report found

Prices for calcium and magnesium sulphate are recorded for South Africa and for world markets as at mid 2012, together with price trends and the groundwater chemistry that governs which salts a mine water stream will yield. The figures were assembled to support feasibility studies on a eutectic freeze crystallisation plant and an ion exchange plant.
