Abstract:
      Effects of bentonite, starch, carboxymethyl cellulose, sodium silicate, water glass, calcium oxide and acrylamide on strength of primary coal dust pellets were investigated. The results show that starch, calcium oxide and acrylamide can not improve pellet strength. Though effectively improving pellet strength, carboxymethyl cellulose will oxygenolysis during roasting, and ball turns into powder. When applying solid sodium silicate and liquid water glass as binder, pellet can obtain required strength with mass ratio of binder to coal ash of 1︰1, but will melt with extreme high temperature and too much binder, exerting a certain impact on germanium volatilization rate. Pellets have good strength and germanium volatilization rate is 99% above when applying bentonite as binder with mass addition of 16% of dust. Bentonite is selected as binder.
