It was found that the dewatering by sleeve type press filter was an efficient way of FCC dewatering. On the other hand, the results also proved that particle size distribution, volatile matter, ash content, pore size distribution and specific surface area of coal particles of FCC samples, as well as viscosity and density of FCC slurry, were important parameters in determining the process of efficient dewatering. Especially, wet mass to dry mass, specific resistance of average mass, compressibility factor and microstructure of filter cake explained the reasons and mechanisms of fine clean coal efficient dewatering.展开更多

文摘Filter cake is critical to maintaining the stability of the excavation face of an underwater shield tunnel in a high-permeability stratum.In a high-permeability formation,generating an effective filter cake on the excavation face is difficult with a pure bentonite slurry,which penetrates the ground and may not achieve the required suspension pressure.Determining how to efficiently and quickly form a thin and low-permeability filter cake on the tunnel working face has become a key engineering problem in the construction of slurry shield tunnels in high-permeability strata.In this study,the relationship between slurry viscosity and the slurry pressure gradient of pure bentonite was established by performing slurry permeability experiments.The influence of slurry viscosity on the formation of the filter cake in a high-permeability formation was studied under different pressure gradients.In addition,the effect of additive particle size on the slurry filter cake formation was analyzed by introducing additives with different particle sizes to pure bentonite slurries with different viscosities.The test results indicate that(1)for the pure bentonite slurry,the critical initial pressure gradient can be used as a rough indicator of the formation of the filter cake,and the relationship between the critical maximum pore diameter and the average pore diameter of the for-mation can be compared to establish and analyze the formation law of the slurry filter cake;(2)adding particles to the slurry can enhance the effect of the pure bentonite slurry;and(3)adding coarse-grained materials can effectively improve the film-forming effect.The slurry is more compact when the particle size is close to the average pore size of the formation.
