Abstract

A process for separating Anthracite and low quality carbon from refuse. Crushed refuse is admixed with water from a water storage source. The admixture is transferred to a first cyclone separator to divide the admixture into a refuse rich slurry stream and a carbonaceous rich slurry stream. The refuse rich slurry stream is dewatered through a vibrating screen and the water collected sent to the raw feed sump source. The carbonaceous rich slurry is directed to a second cyclone separator to separate low quality carbon from high quality carbon, the high quality carbon is transferred to a third cyclone separator used to separate the media water therefrom. The separated media water is returned via a siphon leg to the raw feed sump, and the dewatered high quality Anthracite is available for markets requiring higher quality carbon.
