More than 600PSS's have been installed in Chinese coal mines, bringing about economic benefits to both coal producers and consumers in terms of reduced energy saving, transpertation cost reduction,and environmental protection. While the PSS treats some high-moisture fine raw coal, the mesh apertures may be blinded by the fine particles stuck on the mesh wire of the screen. Recently, the authors have developed the Piano-wire Probability Screen, a new screen which screens moist fine raw coal. This screen assimilates advantages of PSS, having large deck inclination, large aperture and multideck. In addition the new screen uses piano-wire decks which have a new structure, great open area, and no blinding. The results of sizing fine moist raw coal in Lugou Coal Mine, Henan Province,show that the Piano-wire Probability Screen has a large capacity and high efficiency and is an efficient screen for separating moist raw coal with diameter of 6mm.
