The work is devoted to the study of the effect of an electric explosion on the selectivity of the destruction of quartz raw materials. The object of the study is quartz ore of the Nadyrbay deposit of the Republic of Kazakhstan. An electrohydroimpulse plant for crushing and grinding quartz raw materials has been developed and assembled. Using the electrohydroimpulse method, the granulometric composition of quartz can be adjusted. This makes it possible to adjust the magnitude of the voltage in the discharge channel and time. In this technology, quartz ore processing was carried out with an increase in the discharge voltage of the storage from 14 kV to 25 kV, the length of the interelectrode distance from 8 to 12, the capacitance of the capacitor 0.5 µF, 0.75 µF and the processing time of 5 min. Using the electrohydroimpulse method, quartz ore particles with an initial fraction of 5 mm, 10 mm and 1 mm were crushed to 0.8. The results of the grinding of quartz raw materials with the influence of an underwater electric explosion in a liquid medium allowed us to determine the degree of grinding of the material. The obtained results can be used in the course of studying the characteristics of crushing and grinding of ores. In the food industry, quartz sand within 0.25–0.5 millimeters can be used as a filler to create filters for water purification, as well as products from oil, industrial effluents, etc. Particles ranging in size from 0.5 to 1 millimeter can be used for rough processing of metal, stone and glass. The structural and quantitative analysis of powdered quartzite samples was made using a scanning electron microscope and the stoichiometry of the elements was calculated
The object of the study is coal sludge and coal fines of the Shubarkol deposit and the Kuznetsk coal basin (Republic of Kazakhstan) for the production of coal-water fuel, which allows replacing liquid and gaseous expensive products. The resulting fuel (after treatment of coal seams and burial) from industrial waste should not harm the environment, which requires certain economic investments. For crushing coal and coal sludge in the crushing and grinding unit, an electrohydroimpulse device for fine grinding of materials was used, consisting of a control unit with a protection system, a pulse capacitor and a high-voltage generator (capacitor bank capacity 0.75 µF, pulse discharge voltage 15–30 kV, length of the interelectrode distance 7–10 mm). After grinding, fine coal particles rise to the surface of the water, and impurities settle at the bottom of the device, which allows enriching the product (flotation). Surface structures and coal fraction sizes were obtained using a Tescan Mira 3 scanning electron microscope. The main characteristics of coal-water fuel during vortex combustion were: the diameter of the fraction 0–250 microns – 63–74 %, process water – 36–24 %, special additive – 1–2 %. Coal-water fuel is similar to liquid fuel, and when transferring heat-generating plants to combustion of suspension, no significant changes in the design of boilers (units) are required. This makes it easy to mechanize and automate the processes of receiving, feeding and burning fuel, and the vortex combustion technology at a temperature of 950–1,050 °C guarantees fuel efficiency of more than 97 %. The given optimal parameters of electrohydroimpulse technology when introduced into production will allow not only grinding, but also enriching the coal product
This article proposes a method for grinding coal based on the use of the energy of a pulsed shock wave resulting from a spark electric discharge in a liquid. The main purpose of the scientific work is the development of an electric pulse device for producing coal powder, the main component of coal-water fuel. The diameter of the initial coal fraction averaged 3 mm, and the size of the resulting product was 250 µm.To achieve this goal, the dependence of the length of a metal rod electrode (positive electrode) on the length and diameter of its insulation is investigated. Various variants of the shape of the base (bottom) of the device acting as a negative electrode are considered, and an effective variant based on the results of coal grinding is proposed. An experimental electric pulse installation is described, the degree of coal grinding is determined depending on the geometric parameters. The optimal characteristics of the obtained coal powder have been established.
