Abstract

An experimental program was conducted using a 2-inch internal diameter Canadian column flotation cell to examine the effect of various operating parameters on clean coal recovery and quality. The program used the Plackett-Burman statistical design to identify the significant operating parameters, followed by a two-level factorial design to define the optimal column operating conditions. Frother concentration, column height and air flow were identified to be the most significant parameters.
