| Description |
In this study, response surface methodology was successfully applied to investigate the operating conditions of the froth flotation process used to recover coking coal fines obtained from a settling pond. A quadratic model was developed to evaluate the variation of yield and the grade of clean-coal product with different test conditions. Thirteen experiments were carried out based on a central composite design technique. The analysis of variance was performed using design expert software to confirm the developed second-order model was statistically significant and adequate to represent the experimental observations. Using this technique, model coefficients, R2, , and F values, were determined to analyze the developed models. Surface plots showing the relationship between the responses, namely, wt % and ash %, with process parameters, and also plots between experimental versus the predicted responses from the models are presented.
