Abstract：To address issues in the original coarse slime system's"spiral separator+sieve bend"process—such as coarse clean coal"carrying excessive ash"under normal coal quality,waste of high-quality resources during coal quality fluctuations,and low desliming efficiency—Wangpo Coal Preparation Plant optimized the process by implementing a new combination of"TBS+tri-mass electromagnetic vibrating screen+slime centrifuge."Through production tests and data analysis,the feasibility and superiority of the optimization scheme were veri-fied.Under normal coal quality(feed ash≤35%),the ash content of coarse clean coal dropped to 10.84%after separation and dehydration,meeting the blending requirements for clean coal without reducing the separation density of slack coal,thus avoiding yield loss of final clean coal.During abnormal coal quality periods(feed ash>35%),the ash content of coarse clean coal was optimized to 13.39%;a minor reduction of only 0.6 percentage points in final clean coal ash was sufficient to balance the"excessive ash"phenomenon,preventing high-quality resources from being mixed into raw slack coal.Post-renovation,the desliming efficiency of the tri-mass electro-magnetic screen increased to over 92%,significantly outperforming the original sieve bend.Calculations show that for an annual processing capacity of 3 million tons of raw coal,the optimization can increase the enterprise's economic benefits by 12.625 5 million yuan per year.This study provides a practical technical reference for op-timizing coarse slime systems in mine-type coal preparation plants with high coal quality fluctuations.
