(54) Title (EN): METHOD OF SEPARATING SOLIDS USING BIO-OILS
(54) Title (FR): PROCÉDÉ DE SÉPARATION DE SOLIDES AU MOYEN DE BIO-HUILES
(57) Abstract:
(EN): A process for separating a solid having two or more components, at least one of which is lyophobic and at least one of
which is lyophilic. The process comprises, in a single step, comminuting a mixture of the solid in a first liquid to which one of
the components is lyophilic and to which the other component is lyophobic and in a second liquid which is immiscible with the
first liquid and which will wet the lyophobic component to form agglomerates or floes of the lyophobic component and the second
liquid in a mill having positive transport capability such that the mill causes the mixture to be transported therethrough. The second
liquid comprises a bio-oil, bio-diesel or combination thereof. The agglomerates are then separated from the mixture. This process
may be used for beneficiating a coal containing ash.
(FR): L'invention concerne un procédé de séparation d'un solide possédant deux composants ou plus, dont au moins un est
lyophobe et dont au moins un est lyophile. Le procédé comprend, en une seule étape, la réduction en poudre d'un mélange du solide
dans un premier liquide dans lequel un des composants est lyophile et dans lequel l'autre composant est lyophobe et dans un second
liquide qui n'es pas miscible avec le premier liquide et qui mouillera le composant lyophobe pour former des agglomérats ou blocs
flottants du composant lyophobe et du second liquide dans un broyeur possédant une capacité de transport positif de telle sorte que
le broyeur fait en sorte que le mélange est transporté à travers celui-ci. Le second liquide comprend une bio-huile, du bio-diesel
ou une combinaison de ceux-ci. Les agglomérats sont ensuite séparés du mélange. Ce procédé peut être utilisé pour enrichir un
charbon contenant des cendres.
