At present, there is a common problem that the mixing mode is single and it is difficult to overcome the inherent bottleneck of multiphase mixing. A mixing device combining the advantages of jet entrainment and mixing dispersion was designed and built. In an effort to determine the mixing degree of two phases, the mixing coefficient of gas–liquid charging was measured using the cylinder method with the optimal working parameters. To explore the optimization of the mixing conditions and control mechanism of multiphase materials, the law of gas–liquid shear mixing in the process of multi-force field synergistic change was revealed. Based on the testing of the gas injection capacity under different working conditions and the calculation of the gas–liquid two-phase mixing coefficient, it was concluded that the flow rate was the direct key factor affecting the gas injection capacity. The working speed also had a certain impact on the gas injection capacity. When working at a high speed and high flow rate, the jet beam broke through the cutting barrier and presented a superposition effect. The jet impact assisted the rotation, and the suction performance of the device was significantly improved, which was conducive to the mixing of the gas and liquid phases. According to the test results of the measuring cylinder method, the calculated average inflation volume is 0.01 m 3 / (m 2 · m i n) , the inflation uniformity coefficient is 77.51, and the mixing coefficient of the gas and liquid phases is 0.12.

Changes in the dielectric properties of benzene mercaptan, benzene sulfide, and dibenzothiophene at 915 MHz frequency within 20 °C–100°C was studied for the first time. Coal-like substances were prepared by loading the compounds onto low-sulfur coal, and desulfurization test was performed under the microwave condition of 915 MHz and microwave – HCOOH–H2O2 system. The desulfurization reaction path and mechanism were summarized, and the relationship between the dielectric properties of organic sulfur and desulfurization efficiency was established. Results showed that the microwave-absorption ability of dibenzothiophene was weaker than that of benzene mercaptan and phenyl sulfide, and its dielectric properties changed irregularly with temperature. Dibenzothiophene cannot be removed by microwave radiation. Benzene mercaptan and phenyl sulfide had the highest efficiency of absorbing microwave energy and converting it into heat energy at 60°C. Moreover, they have the highest microwave desulfurization rate of up to 14%. In the microwave – HCOOH–H2O2 oxidation system, the highest desulfurization rates of phenyl sulfide occurred at 100°C because water-soluble products (such as sulfonate and sulfate) increased in the oxidation products. However, phenyl sulfide still had the highest desulfurization efficiency at 60°C. The desulfurization rates at 60°C and 100°C were 38% and 51%, respectively. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

There are still many problems in the stirring dissolution of flocculants: The law of stirring dissolution of flocculants with different molecular weights is not clear, the microstructure of settling floc with different particle sizes of coal slime is still to be explored, and how to apply the law of flocculant dissolution to industrialization? To solve these problems, firstly, mechanical stirring dissolution tests are carried out on anionic polyacrylamide (APAM) with different molecular weights to explore the stirring dissolution law of APAM with 3–25 million molecular weights. Results indicated that the optimal stirring speed of APAM with 3–6 million molecular weight is 800 r/min. The optimal stirring speed of 8–16 million molecular weight APAM is 600 r/min. The optimal stirring speed of 18–25 million molecular weight APAM is 800 r/min. The stirring power formula for APAM dissolution is improved by fitting the experimental data of 3–25 million molecular weight APAM stirring dissolution. Secondly, through APAM performance test, it is verified that the solubility of powdered APAM is the best under optimal solution. Thirdly, through the image measurement and analysis test of settling floc of coal slime, the change law of equivalent diameter of settling floc of different particle sizes of coal slime under the optimal dissolution parameters are explored. Results showed that when the mixing speed is 600 r/min, the equivalent diameter of −0.5 mm slime settling floc is the largest. When the mixing speed is 200 r/min or 400 r/min, the equivalent diameters of 0.5–0.25 mm, 0.25–0.125 mm, 0.125–0.075 mm, 0.075–0.045 mm and −0.045 mm slime settling floc are the largest. The equivalent diameter is positively correlated with the size of slime, and the equivalent diameter of −0.045 mm slime settling floc is the largest. The size of slime is the dominant factor in the change of fractal dimension. The fractal dimension of −0.5 mm slime settling floc is the largest, and the fractal dimension is little affected by mixing speed. Finally, the relationship between the important dissolution parameters of the APAM stirring dissolution test is numerically fitted. In view of the different geometrical parameters of the stirring barrel, a method of deducing the dissolution and stirring time of industrial flocculants is proposed. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

The jet flow field is characterized by the dispersion and mixing of multiphase flow, which is widely used in the field of coal slime flotation. In this paper, the behavior of coal slime surface modification, the behavior of material suspension and the effect of different jet fluids on coal slurry blending were studied. Based on the action mechanism of the jet flow field, a jet device suitable for coal slime graded mixing was proposed, and the mixing effect of the jet device was tested. The results show that the jet flow field has strong effects on material dissociation and dispersion, and the mixing effect of a single jet is equivalent to that of the laser particle size analyzer's own agitation device after stirring for 2.5 min at 500 r/min speed. The SEM test of material surface morphology and the changes of Al and Si elements measured by EDS show that the jet flow field can effectively remove the fine mud wrapped on the surface of coal particles. The precondition of material suspension is to have the just-suspended capacity. The critical jet velocity of coal slime suspension is in the range of 6 m/s~9 m/s. The mixing ability of the jet stream has certain limitations. The increase or decrease of the jet height will cause the decrease of the suspension percentage of sampling points in the tank. The gas jet mode can promote the reagent acting on the surface of the bubble liquid film to form oil bubbles, which is more suitable for hydrophobic mineral flotation. The optimal speed of the gas jet is 0.86 m/s, and the shortest cycle period is 1.0 T (T is one material cycle period). The flotation perfection index of 0.5–0.25 mm and less than 0.075 mm coal slime increased by 2.67% and 26.78%, respectively, indicating that the overall idea of the jet mixing device proposed based on the experimental conclusion is feasible.
