Reclaimed coal shall be transported to raw coal hoppers for feeding to grinding mill using belt

conveyors. Magnetic separator and metal detector shall be provided for the belt conveyor
feeding to raw coal hoppers. The deflector valve provided before the raw coal bins shall divert
the material to reject bin in case of foreign metal particulates. Two (2) nos raw coal hopper of
effective capacity 100 MT each are considered. The hoppers shall be of steel construction
provided with stainless steel liners for wear protection. The hoppers shall be mounted on load
cells. Needle gates and completely enclosed box weigh feeders shall be considered for the
extraction of coal from raw coal hoppers.
The weighing feeder shall have an adequate feeding range to meet the mixing proportion and
will be controlled automatically to fulfill any preset feeding condition within an accuracy
±0.5% with a turndown ratio of 10:1. The weighing feeder shall be remotely controlled from
the central control room. The maximum capacity of the weigh feeders shall be 30 tph each.
Separate de-dusting arrangement shall be envisaged at raw coal hoppers feeding and
discharge.
For drying and grinding of coal, energy efficient vertical roller mill is proposed which utilizes
hot gases from preheater for drying out the moisture in coal. The coal grinding mill shall be of
capacity of 25 tph. The product fineness shall be 12% residue on 90 micron sieve with a
moisture content of not more than ≤1%. The coal mill shall be designed for maximum inlet
moisture of 7%.
Raw coal shall be fed into centre of the coal mill by a chain feeder and rotary feeder installed
at the bottom of raw coal bins. The feed rate of raw coal shall be controlled automatically in
accordance with coal dust level in coal dust bin. The rotary feeder shall act as an air sealing
device. Raw coal shall be ground and dried in the coal mill. The fineness of coal dust shall be
controlled by rotation speed of a dynamic separator mounted on the coal mill. Hot gases
from preheater shall be used for drying in coal mill. If required, a booster fan shall be provided
for conveying hot gases in coal mill.
The reject from the coal mill shall be collected in a reject bin with flap valve arrangement for
sealing. Water injection system shall be considered to maintain the Temperature and bed in
the Grinding table. Seal air fan shall be provided for the Roller bearings.
The fine coal dust shall be introduced into a pulse jet type bag filter and collected by filter
bags. Double rotary air locks shall be considered below coal mill bag filter. The dust shall be
collected in hoppers and transported to fine coal bins with the help of screw conveyors
provided below the bag filter. A fan is provided after bag filter to guide the gas to chimney.
The chimney shall be provided with online dust monitor. For the bag filter, explosion vents
are planned to be installed to release the pressure in case of any emergency. Also filter bag
itself shall be free from any static electricity. Inert gas system is envisaged as safety during
fire hazards. Two (2) nos Gas analyser is envisaged for the monitoring of CO one at the inlet
of bag filter and second for fine coal bins.
Rupture disc shall be provided for duct and coal mill bag filter.
Necessary explosion venting, inertisation system and protection measure shall be suitably
provided for the grinding circuit
De-dusting bag filters shall be provided wherever required. All transfer points shall be
properly de-dusted. Maintenance cranes, hoists and monorails shall be provided for
maintenance, wherever required.
