A systematic review exploring the utilization of coal mining …
During open cast mining, coal can be extracted only after removing layers of soil and rock over it, often termed as over burden (OB). Similarly, coal tailing is another type of unproductive waste produced during the preparation and washing phase of coal mining [7]. Tailings are usually disposed of by pumping and deposited in the form of an ...

Choosing the Right Pump for Coal Preparation
Feb 23, 2012. The Challenge. As much as 50 percent of the material that comes out the ground during coal mining is waste: dirt, rocks and other impurities that must be removed from the coal before it can be processed and burned. Coal is washed, crushed and sized at a coal preparation plant, where throughput can average 4,000 tons an hour.

Deciphering Dewatering and Disposal
Pumping slurry, i.e., a liquid containing solid particles, requires different pump capabilities compared to pumping purely water. Slurries can be divided into two broad types: settling and non-settling. With non-settling slurries, solids do not settle to the bottom but remain in suspension.
