Abstract

Coal Water Fuel (CWF) is one of energy diversifications. It enables the coal to substitute fuel oil by existing installations because CWF could flow similar to the flow of liquid. Selections of additive, coal size fraction, ratio coal and water of CWF were studied in laboratory scale. Arutmin coal, processed with Upgraded Brown Coal (UBC) technology, was grouped to -60 and -200 meshes and then are mixed with water and small quantities of additive. Size fraction, coal concentration and additive type were varied to investigate their effects on CWF behavior. Results from concentration and penetration tests show that the best additive for CWF with size fraction - 200 mesh is DBS (Doacely Benzene Sulfanat) with optimum coal concentration is 51% using size - 60 mesh indicate, that the most stable CWF was resulted from CWF using DBS with optimum coal concentration 55 %. Results of using different size fraction that show the decrease of concentration and penetration rate from CWF with size fraction - 200 mesh is relatively constant compared to the CWF with size fraction – 60 mesh.

Abstract

A direct reduced iron (DRI) was prepared using iron concentrate pellets and a coal as a reductant through three stages, namely, the first: iron concentrate pellets were dried by slow heating at 150°C to remove water content, the second: they were heated at 1,200°C to reduce magnetite into hematite which was treated in two different conditions, namely by oxygen and without oxygen injections; and the third: they were reduced in an atmosphere of CO/CO2 at various temperatures of 950-1,200°C. In this reduction process of iron oxide would be reduced by CO to metallic iron (Fe). The experimental results showed that the metallization without oxygen injection produced the best metallization at 1,100°C and the ratio of carbon/iron (FC/Fe) of 0.52 to result 84.54%, contained 74.68% Fe and 88.34% Fetotal. The metallization by oxygen injection produced the best metallization at 1,100°C, providing result of 96.81%, Femetal of 87.88% and 90.78% of Fetotal. The iron oxides on the DRI were relatively low, namely 2.9%. In this research, prior pellets preparation a magnetic oxidation process on iron ore concentrate was also conducted and changed the magnetite into hematite. The reduction process on its pellets produced 94.15% metallization at 1,100°C, and the DRI contained 97.85% of Fetotal, 85.32% of Femetal and 5.35% of Fe oxides. Furthermore, analyzing a remained carbon of the DRI using microscopy to seek the metal structure formed. The remained carbon was reported around 1-6% C. Next smelting process, it is suggested to have a high residual carbon concentration as there will be a carbon boil mechanism to reduce iron oxides that are still lagging on the DRI.

Abstract

The loading of gold and copper from a pregnant gold thiosulfate leach solution onto ion exchange resin and the subsequent elution of these metals have been investigated. In this study, strong basic resins of Amberjet-4200 and IRA-400 were used and thiocyanate was used as eluent. It was found that on Amberjet-400, the gold loading reached about 2-3 kg/t, in correspondence to 0.4 ppm gold in the effluent.On IRA-400, the performance was almost exactly the same loading as on Amberjet- 4200 but with the effluent gold concentration being slightly higher. In leach solutions, copper is present in much higher concentrations than gold, since it is added as a catalyst for gold dissolution.  The maximum Cu loading obtained on Amberjet-400 was about 22 kg/t while it was about 24 kg/t on IRA-400. These results indicate that gold can be removed from thiosulfate solutions rapidly and loaded on resins to very high concentrations. Subsequent gold elution with thiocyanate ions was very efficient; the concentration of gold on resin was reduced from about 2-3 kg/L down to less than 10 ppm (99,9% elution) under ambient temperature in 2-4 hours.

Abstract

In general, the example of case study of the energy and mining company such as PT Bukit Asam (Tbk) in South Sumatera Province and PT INCO (Tbk) in South Sulawesi Province has positive impact to the regional economy in terms of the community development and economic productivity. Coordination between central and regional governments should set up grand strategy of increasing their in- tensive exploration program to identify the distribution, locality, quality and quantity of their energy and mineral resources in every region to develop its potentials and its mineral base downstream industries so instrumental to development in the near future, especially if they have resource endowments having optimal added value and positive terms of trade (TOT) or TOT greater than 1. In overall, it indicates that the energy and mineral resources (EMR) sector could be used as one of among the catalysts to achieve interregional convergence through “cross fertilization” toward the national Gross Domestic Product (GDP) per capita index. All in one purpose is to set up of creating job and income toward a welfare society.

Abstract

Coal gasification is one of coal utilizations that produces less CO2 emission than coal combustion. Coal gasification technology that has been used in Indonesia is  generally a fixed bed gasification. Fixed bed is designed for high-rank coal and the majority of Indonesian coal is of a low-rank. Low ash and high moisture content of the Indonesian coal in a fixed bed can affect mechanical and thermal fragmentation, pressure drop, gas and particle flow distribution. The operation of gasifier may cause unstable condition. Another gasification technology is bubbling fluidized bed, which is operated above 1,200°C, so ash can melt. High operating temperature causes agglomeration and makes unstable gasification process. Therefore, in this study, low-rank coal is gasified in bubbling fluidized bed reactor at low operating temperature. The purpose of this study is to determine the optimal conditions of bubbling fluidized bed gasification. The research was conducted in bubbling fluidized bed coal gasification Process Development Unit (PDU) at Coal Utilization Technology Centre of R&D Centre of tekMIRA, Palimanan. Coal was fed continuously as many as 20 kg/hour into a gasifier then was gasified to produce gas using air as a gasifying agent and silica sand as a bed material at 850- 950°C. The produced gas from the gasification was analyzed using the Orsat Analyzer. A simulation using a ChemCAD 7.1 CC steady state was applied to validate the experiment result. From the analyzed result of yield gas composition, the produced CO and CO2 were about 10-15 wt%. Gas compositions that are close to criteria of producer gas, no agglomeration, and stable process condition during study indicate that bubbling fluidized bed gasification at low operating temperature is suitable to be applied as gasification technology for Indonesian low-rank coal.

Abstract

Typical lead-copper-zinc sulphide minerals were found hard to be separated selectively by froth flotation in the plant practice operation due to part of sphalerite was progressively entrapped into lead-copper bulk flotation. A series of de-zincing on lead-copper flotation tests has been conducted in the laboratory to reduce unwanted zinc content. Dosages variation of common sphalerite depressant such as sodium cyanide, sodium bisulphite combined with zinc sulphate were employed in addition to flotation time and pH regula- tors alteration. The flotation results exhibit that lesser zinc component is still presence in lead-copper concentrate due to intricate association of the minerals particle. However, this study in general performs tendency of de-zincing requirement as well as improvement of lead-copper recovery by increasing con- sumption of such depressant agent and may regrind otherwise.

Abstract

Coal is the important energy source for industry and power plant in Indonesia. Its reserve is quite abundant around 28.5 billion tons. The Government of Indonesia issued the National Energy Policy (NEP) to target 25% of coal use of the national energy mix in 2050. The NEP directs the national energy management for the provision and utilization of primary energy. However, there are worries about the ability of coal reserve in accommodating the demand from domestic and export needs. The National Energy Council recommended coal production restriction policy for anticipation measures. This research investigated the current state of the coal reserves and the government policy to meet the target in 2050 using Vensim program. In the Vensim, a model was built to represent a coal supply-demand system. Several scenarios were simulated to analyze the relationship between the government policy and the coal reserve. The result shows that government intervention such as coal production restriction policy is needed to ensure Indonesia’s coal reserve can fulfill domestic demand for power generation and industry by 2050.

Abstract

The degree of density and saturation in soil sample under constant specific gravity conditions are influenced by the addition of water content. To find out its effect, it is necessary to test the samples which include compaction, moisture content, specific gravity and density testing. By recognizing the soil properties through a testing and calculation; dry density, saturation density, dry soil volume, pore volume, degree of saturation, porosity, and void ratio can be evaluated. The test shows that the optimum moisture content and dry density are 53,25% and 1.08g/cm3 respectively. The tests were conducted to five samples that have a specific gravity of 2.67. The obtained saturation degree were S-01: 79.05%, S-02: 92.40%, S-03: 95.06%, S-04: 94.64% and S-05: 93.12%. The value of water content in the five samples was S-01: 48.87%, S-02: 51.04 %, S-03: 53.25 %, S-04: 55.32 %, S-05: 57.24%. The densities in five samples were S-01: 1.50 g/cm³, S-02: 1.63 g/cm³, S-03: 1.64 g/cm³, S-04: 1.62 g/cm³, S-0 5: 1.59 g/cm³. The saturation degree will increase along with the addition of the water content and the density. However, beyond the optimum addition of the moisture content, the saturation degree will decrease in line with the density even though if the water content increase. This occurred in the constant condition of the specific gravity.

Abstract

Illegal artisanal gold mining in Kebunlado, Riau Province has damaged the smallholders estate. The use of mercury for extracting the gold is potentially pollute the soil and syrrounding water as well as threats plantation productivity and it’s food chain. The purpose of this research is to study the mining impact towards the physical and chemical properties of the soil around the plantation, and measure the mercury contamination within the tailings, soil and river to be compared with the soil sample near the mine area. Sampling was carried out in 10 locations to study the properties of the land surrounding the artisanal gold mining. Physical and chemical properties of the soil were studied.The samples came from the mine sites (7 samples) and its surrounding area (3 samples). Sampling was conducted using a toposequence transect method, based on its topographical conditions and soil parent material with the purposive method. Mercury level was measured from eight soil samples that were sampled from surrounding artisanal mine area and six water samples from the surrounding rivers. The research showed that the soil characteristics had changed after mining activities. The soil properties were higher in sand, with bulk density and permeability compared to intact soil. However, there was no distinct change in pH, total nitrogen, organic carbon as well as available P, except C/N in post mine area was relatively low. Mercury content in the gold mine area was higher than that of the average mercury within the soil around the world. The Mercury in the river stream exceeds the threshold based on Indonesia Regulation. The study suggested that land reclamation is needed to develop oil palm plantation in terms of improving the soil physics, increasing C/N and remediation as well as reducing the mercury in soil and water.

Abstract

Lead smelting is known as a lead extraction technique which has negative impact to environment because it produces emissions of dust, SO2 gas and lead. The leaching is conducted to reduce the smelting’s weaknesses by extracting the lead without damaging the environment. This technique, often called hydrometallurgical lead extraction, uses liquid media to extract the lead and separate it from the elemental sulphur (S0) by filtration. Particle size, slurry density (solid percentage) and acid concentration affect the dissolution of Indonesian galena concentrate with fluorosilicic acid and hydrogen peroxide as oxidants. By means of these reagents, it is expected that the Pb extraction process from galena concentrate resulted from flotation of sulfide ore can be carried out at low temperatures and lead recovery can be accomplished from the leach solution by electrowining. Studying galena leaching kinetics is required to perform galena leaching with high Pb extraction percentages. Two kinetics models are commonly used to study leaching kinetics, namely shrinking core model (SCM) and shrinking particle model (SPM). These models are used to determine the mechanism which controls leach reaction and reaction rate constant or diffusion constant of the reacting species. Total plotting of sulfide fraction dissolves with time adjusted to the existing mathematical model, and fitting the curve from the dummy model to the experimental data, are two techniques that are utilized to obtain the best kinetics model which important in controlling the leaching reaction rate. Applying the Arrhenius equation, the relation of the reaction rate constant or the diffusion constant and the temperature is determined to calculate the leaching activation energy. The result from kinetics analysis showed that the leaching of Indonesian galena concentrate in fluorosilicic acid with hydrogen peroxide as oxidants followed the shrinking core model with diffusion through porous solid product layer as the reaction controller with activation energy of 45.81 kJ/mol or 10.91 kcal/mol.
