South Africa has abundant coal resources and the proved undeveloped reserve is in the fifth after China, the United States, the commonwealth of independent states and India. It accounts for 10.6% of the world's recoverable reserves. Of recoverable reserves, inferior bituminous coal accounts for 81.5%, senior bituminous coal is 13.1% and anthracite coal accounts for 5.4%.
The coal resource is concentrated in the eastern region of South Africa. Among them, the PuMalanga and the Northern Province generally have bituminous coal with thicker coal seam; KuaZuLu/NaDaErSheng has anthracite coal with relatively thin coal seam. Coal seam in South Africa is mainly concentrated in the dry, Lai Hai platform. The rest such as Northern Province coal field, the elevation of more than dry platform altitude is higher than the northeast of Eastern Cape coalfield.
Coal exploitation line refers to: underground coal can be exploited by drilling into coal seams and extracting the methane that naturally occurs within coal. The methane can be used directly for generating electricity or for heating. Such extraction, known as coal bed methane, is relatively non-intrusive, i.e. there is no coal mine and it leaves the coal unaltered so it could be mined by traditional methods in the future.
After coal exploitation line, the coal mining production line will be used. The main coal production line refers to the coal crushing plant, coal grinding line and coal leaching process. Coal crushing production line is mainly used to break the large scale coal materials into small size. Coal crushing production line can be divided into coal primary crushing line and secondary crushing line. Coal grinding line is not the necessary. If there is primary and secondary crushing stage, it does not need grinding process. Or only the primary crushing line, the grinding mill will help to pulverize crushed coal materials.
The leaching stage is used to separate the needless materials involved in coal ore. Here will mainly introduce the coal crushing production line and the related coal crushers.
SBM designs coal comminution systems for coal mining and preparation, industrial minerals, mining and processing and other non-metallic-mining and processing systems. Crushing systems include in-pit, primary, secondary, tertiary and quaternary crushing systems. An extensive size reduction database from a significant number of installations is used to recommend crusher models and sizes.
Coal crushing processing line includes: primary coal crushing process, secondary coal crushing stage. In this line, it needs main crusher equipment and the other auxiliary equipment. In primary crushing stage, the raw exploitation coal materials will be crushed into small size. Vibrating feeder will take the coal materials into primary jaw crusher. Through belt conveyor, the coal materials will be taken into the secondary crusher machine. Vibrating screen will separate the large coal and will take them back to secondary crusher machine to be processed again.
SBM has produced various kinds of crushers to satisfy South Africa coal processing requirements: coal jaw crusher, coal double roller crusher and coal hammer crusher etc.
Coal jaw crusher is the popular and welcomed primary coal crushing machine used in coal crushing processing line. With high crushing ratio, this machine can deal with large scale materials. SBM has designed two kinds of jaw crusher for coal crushing process: PE series and PEW series. The crushing plant has 10-1000 t/h production capacity, and the feeding size can be 125mm-1020mm. This kind of coal jaw crusher shows perfect performance in coal primary crushing line.
Double roller coal crusher adopts the cutting edge technology and this enables the machine to fulfill the requirements of our valued clients. This double roller crusher is designed to crush soft and hard materials. It has high tensile strength and corrosion resistance.
SBM coal hammer crusher is a cost-effective solution for processing coal materials in one stage. It can also process such materials which the compression strength is not more than 100 MPA; surface water content is not more than 8%. It is designed with a simple structure, large crushing ratio and high production efficiency.
The above mentioned coal crushers are all made by SBM. If you want to get more information, you can contact us for more detailed information.
