Our coarse fine separator (TCS) is the latest innovative separator for the beneficiation of coarse coal slimes in the 2-0.15 mm size range. In the TCS separator, slurry enters the feed well first & goes downward inside the separation chamber where a fluidized bed is formed when the slurry meets an upward water current. When the system reaches a steady state, particles with higher densities than that of the fluidized bed percolate through the bed and report to the reject stream while lighter particles report to the effluent stream becoming the clean product. As the heavier particles settle toward the bottom of the separation chamber, they are agitated by a mechanical device to further free those entrained lighter particles in the downward materials, creating a secondary separation and improving the product recovery.
