Experimental Study on Classification of High Carbon Fly Ash with a Hydrocyclone

摘要

The fly ash has a wide range of particles size and has a large amount of unburned carbon. As a raw material, the presence of the large particles and the unburned carbon will reduce the quality of the product. How to improve the utilization of fly ash has become one of focus points. In this work, hydrocyclone was adopted for classification after decarburization in a flotation column. Hydrocyclone showed a very good classification performance. In overflow, the particles were all smaller than 85μm. About 97.34% of the particles were smaller than 25 μm. Different fly ash content was selected to investigate its influence on the decarburization. The results showed that it made no obvious differences.
