Reverse flotation as a method of coal cleaning for preparation of coal-water slurries

Due to strongly attractive hydrophobic forces that operate between hydrophobic particles in water, aqueous suspensions of bituminous coals are characterized by high yield stresses and behave as non-Newtonian systems. Since coal must be cleaned before it can be used to prepare coal-water slurries...
