Study on Separation Kinetics of Non-Spherical Single Feeding Particle in the Gas–Solid Separation Fluidized Bed

Gas–solid separation fluidized bed is an efficient and clean coal separation technology with a good separation effect for coal particles. However, there is a lack of systematic research on the complex motion behavior of the feeding particles in gas–solid separation fluidized beds. In this study, the...

description Gas–solid separation fluidized bed is an efficient and clean coal separation technology with a good separation effect for coal particles. However, there is a lack of systematic research on the complex motion behavior of the feeding particles in gas–solid separation fluidized beds. In this study, the separation kinetics of non-spherical single feeding particles in the fluidized bed are examined. The particle sphericity coefficient Φ is introduced to characterize the morphology of irregular coal particles, and the drag coefficient for the feeding particles is modified to verify the suitability of the non-spherical particle drag model for gas–solid fluidized bed separation. After optimization and correction, a <i>ρ<sub>S.sus</sub></i> (the bed density when single feeding particles are suspended in the gas–solid separation fluidized bed) prediction model is obtained. When the prediction accuracy of the <i>ρ<sub>S.sus</sub></i> prediction model is 90%, the confidence degree is 85.72%. This <i>ρ<sub>S.sus</sub></i> of the single non-spherical feeding particle prediction model highlights a direction for improving the separation effect, provides a theoretical basis for the industrialization of gas–solid fluidized bed, and promotes the process of dry fluidized separation.
