The beneficiation performance of the fluidized bed was investigated using 0.25-1.00 mm coarse coal slime and the two different distributors.

Increasing superficial water velocity causes the clean coal ash content, the railings ash content, and the combustible recovery to increase. Additionally, increasing the bed height decreases all of these three indexes. The optimum superficial water velocity and bed height for a 0.25-1.00 mm coal feed were deter- mined to be 3 mm/s and 800 mm, respectively.
