Abstract

In 2008, Indonesia mineable coal reserve was recorded around 7.12 billion tons. During that year, around231.18 million tons were exploited. Of such a figure, 69.44 million tons went to domestic market and the rest belonged to export. Yet, in 2025 the need of coal for local consumption may reach 192.33 million tons that include 99.86 million tons for steam power plant, 30.58 million tons for cement industries, and 17.59 million tons for textile industries. Pulp and other industries may consume 2.92 million tons and 41.39 million tons respectively. It is assumed that in 2025, Indonesian coal export will increase to 260.92 million tons Coal export is assumed to increase figuring Coal Mining Agreement as the biggest exporter (94.03%). The rest goes to Mine authority (3.55%) and State-owned Enterprises (2.43%). However, the possibility of unre- corded coal utilization for ether domestic use and export reaches 51.66 million tons. As a result, it is presumed that Indonesian coal production in 2025 is around 504.92 million tons. The production rate during 2010-2025 is 4.9% per annum. According to the above condition, the mineable coal reserve of 7.12 million tons will probably be finished for about 18 years. In addition, the coal-steamed power that operates until now has an age of 26 years. If the reserve is not well-managed, it will immediately be finished in the shorter time. That is why, it needs an anticipative step of a policy concept that can maintain a sustainability of the domestic coal stock by implementing a limited export.

Abstract

Iron sand is known as one of the sources of TiO2 in the form of ilmenite or titanomagnetite mineral. Iron-titanium oxide mineral contained in Indonesia iron sand are classified as titanomagnetite. Indonesia possesses a lot of iron sand deposits such as at southern coast of Cilacap, Kebumen and other areas. The iron sand consists of magnetic and non-magnetic minerals as either loses or bound materials. Fractionation of Cilacap iron sand which employed three types of sieve (40, 60 and 80 meshes) showed that the iron sand is dominant in -40+60 fraction (68.38 g) while the most amount of iron and titania contents occurred at fraction of -80 mesh, namely 11.62 and 1.46%. Magnetic separation showed that the finer the particles and the higher the magnetic intensity, the higher the derived iron and titania. The process has also successfully increased the TiO2 content more than 5 times, from 0.325 to 1.67%.

Abstract

Numerous empirical equations have been published to correlate the gross calorific value (GCV) of coals with the result of proximate or ultimate analysis, however, many researchers continue to propose new equations. One of the reasons is that many existing equations are likely fitted to coal of one region only. This study is aimed to evaluate the applicability of some existing equations to calculate GCV of Indonesian coal and to develop new equations that more accurate to predict the calorific value of Indonesian coal. Ten (10) new GCV formulas based on proximate analysis data of Indonesian coal were generated using SPSS software. They include three (3) equations with one independent variable, four (4) equations with two independent variables, two (2) equations with three independent variables and one (1) equation with four independent variables. The best equation has the following form: GCV= 25.284 (M) + 30.572 (Ash) + 62.127 (VM) + 138.117 (FC) - 2890.095. The result is in agree with previous work that equation involving four independent variables i.e. moisture (M), ash, volatile matter (VM) and fixed carbon (FC) provides the most accurate estimation of GCV. The new equation when it is used for calculating GCV of Indonesian coals gives more accurate results than that of some existing equations in the literatures.

Abstract

Risk assessment of open pit slope stability is an important aspect to be considered in a decision making of slope design. The risk of slope failure that occurred on the slopes of the mine affect two factors namely the failure probability (FP), and consequences (C) of slope failure. FP is obtained from the collection of the value of Safety Factor (SF) < 1 compared to the total value of SF, while the consequences is estimated from the sectional area multiplied by the width of slope failure. Physical and mechanical properties of sandstone was collected from PT Adaro Indonesia, and tested by “Kolmogorov-Smirnov (K-S)” fitting method to obtain an assumed theoretical distribution that be sued with the character of the original distribution data. “Monte Carlo (MC)” and “Latin Hy- percube (LH)” sampling method is used as a tool to generate sample data, and both methods were compared. Finally Validation is conducted in order to propose an acceptable criteria of FP for single slope of sandstone.

Abstract

The high fuel oil price forces the industries to seek cheaper alternative energy. Coal is the most promising alternative energy in Indonesia. To face this situation, R & D Centre for Mineral and Coal Technology (tekMIRA) has developed a cyclone burner. This burner has the combustion characteris- tics nearly the same as the fuel oil burner that this burner may alter the fuel oil burner in various industrial facilities, such as steam boiler, oil heater, rotary dryer, metal smelter and heat exchanger. The cyclone burner combusting coal powder of -30 mesh may match the energy output of the former altered fuel oil burner. The burning of coal emits long flame and the combustion rate may be con- trolled by a variable feeder. It may be shut of and then put on instantaneously as it is practiced in oil burner. Fine adjustment of the coal and air supply were performed and this burner was set up in vertical and horizontal position. In this substitution 1 litre fuel oil was substituted by 1.5 up to 1.8 kg of coal of 5700 kcal/kg.

Abstract

An accident occurred in bauxite-carrying barge at Kijang Island that caused the death of 3 workers urged Mining Business Unit for Bauxite of PT Aneka Tambang to ask RDCMCT to conduct a series research on the barge. Observation on the site sampled gas and water. Results presented that NO2, SO2 and CO contents were still the threshold value as stated in a circular of Minister of Manpower no. SE.01/MEN/1997. Seawater analyses showed that all elements were still below the allowed figures except for nitrogen-ammonia (N-NH3) that exceeded the threshold value (0.213-0.47 mg/l). Based on observation on the site and laboratory analyses, oxygen deficiency within compartment was the caused of the worker death.

Abstract

One of the risk potentials that must be alerted for underground coal gasification(UCG) technology is surface subsidence, although such a technology is potential to be developed in Indonesia. Therefore, the characteristics of rock strata above the coal seam needs to be deliberately considered. Downhole seismic data is one of the data that is needed to determine the geotechnical characteristics of the rock layers near the surface. Previously, it is considered that physical, mechanical and dynamic properties of the rocks at same geological formation have equal characteristics although they come from different locations. However, based on correlation test to downhole seismic data using multivariate analysis showed that no significant correlation between the measured data from Macangsakti-1 and Macangsakti-2 with those of Mahayung from different location, although they are in the same geological formation. This fact is shown by the analysis result which shows a significance value of <0.05. Macangsakti-1 and Macangsakti 2, which are located closely, showed a significant value of >0.05. It means that there are no significant data differences between the two locations. It is very likely since there are a lot of factors that affect such conditions, especially the influence of tectonics at each location. In addition, factors of the surface condition such as infiltrations of ground water from the surface towards the unsaturated zone also affect the difference of wave propagation velocity at each location. Thus, it should be noted that the condition of rock layers are site specific to determine the characteristics of the sites it should be measured at the sites and can not be generalized with other locations, although they are in the same geological formation.

Abstract

The chemical composition of West Kalimantan bauxite is 45 pct Al2O3 and 16 pct Fe2O3 that has been extracted to produce alumina and bauxite residue (red mud). The residues contains Al2O3 20 pct and Fe2O3 about 37 pct, wich was furthermore processed by roasting or lime-soda sinterization at temperature of 800- 1100°C. The sintered product was leached with sodium carbonate solution to produce soluble sodium aluminate (2NaAlO2). The solution obtained was then precipitated to produce hydrated alumina (Al(OH)3. Hydrated alumina was then sulfateized by adding ammonium hydroxide, and followed by crystallization to produce high purity of ammonium aluminum sulfate crystals (alums). In addition, hydrated alumina was also chlorinated in stoichiometric amount at mol ratio of OH/Al = 0.5 – 1.5 to form polyaluminum chloride (PAC). The residue obtained from leaching was concentrated by 1000 gauss of magnetic separator to produce iron concentrate as a by product. As the results, sulfatation of hydrated alumina with addition of ammonium hydroxide results high grade of ammonium aluminum sulfate (NH4Al(SO4)2 .12H2O) crystals. Chlorination of hydrated alumina in stoichiometric amount at mol ratio of OH/Al = 1.0 results polyaluminum chloride (PAC) that quality is adjacent to the first type of PAC. Through the soda-lime sinter process, it can also produce iron concentrate having grade of 66 % Fe2O3 with 40 % of recovery

Abstract

A carbonate complex in the Mangkalihat area, East Kalimantan, has been selected for this study, because this area has some coal deposits associated with dominant limestone intercalated by thin claystone and sandstone. Commonly, most Indonesian coals were formed in fluvial and deltaic depositional environment. Accordingly, this study is interesting due to the depositional environment of the coals in association with a marine condition. This environment mostly results in relatively high mineral matter and sulphur contents, particularly pyrite in this study; brighter lithotype and dominant vitrinite content over liptinite and inertinite. The geologic factors have clearly proven a good correlation among the results of megascopic, microscopic and proximate analyses. The coals with brighter lithotype, high vitrinite and moisture contents were formed under a wetter marsh environment. On the other hand, the duller lithotypes with the presence of inertinite and mineral matter were deposited in a dryer marsh environment. The presence of high pyrite and sulphur contents strongly indicates a marine incursion during the coal forming in this area.

Abstract

The objective of the study is to comprehend the feasibility for construction plan of smelter plant to process the nickel laterite into ferro-nickel (Fe-Ni). PT. Macika Mineral Industries (PT. MMI), located at Lolowua village South Konawe, Southeast Sulawesi will implement such a plan Law No. 4 of 2009 on Mineral and Coal Mining obliges the mining investors to process the minerals into semi-finished or finished products in the domestic country before selling them abroad. The raw materials for PT. MMI smelter plant will be supplied by PT. Macika Mada Madana (PT. MMM) as one of PT. MMI group members PT. MMI is the holder of Production Operation Mining Permit that covers an area of 705 Ha and is located in Watudemba village, Palangga District and Keono Village, South Palangga District, South Konawe Regency. The mining area of PT. MMI is located 7 km from the PT. MMM planed plant. The total Ni reserve owned by PT. MMM is 18,930,700 tons. Of 18,930,700 ton reserves; 4,390,645 tons belongs to the measured one performing the average grade of nickel and iron around 1.97 and 23.14% respectively while around 14,540,055 tons that contain the average grade of nickel and iron about 1.92 and 23.14% respectively goes to the inferred reserve. PT. MMI requires 960,000 tons per year of Ni raw material it means that PT. MMM can supply the processing plant up to 20 years. Net present value (NPV), internal rate of return (IRR), return on investment (ROI), payback period (PBP), benefit cost ratio (B / CR), and breakeven point (BEP) are the criteria for evaluating the financial need of PT. MMI. The results showed that the NPV was about US$ 726,883,479 while the IRR and the ROI were around 18.00% and 212.90% respectively. Calculating the PBP and the B/C achieved 6.19 years and 3.21 correspondingly. The reached BEP was US$ 754 per ton for the production of 50,504 tons. The analysis showed that the construction of ferro-nickel (Fe-Ni) plant by PT. MMI was financially acceptable to be. However, using several variable measurements in analyzing the sensitivity of the business, namely by the selling price of ferro-nickel is assumed to be reduced by 5% and production cost is increased by 5%, the plan is not sensitive to decreasing selling price and increasing production cost.
