Effect of PSD to the compaction phenomenon was investigated on the binary mixtures of Indonesian middle-rank coal with different mass fraction of small and large particles (%L). Compacted density of each coal mixtures was measured during uniaxial briquetting process and their compaction characteristics were analyzed with Cooper-Eaton model. It was found that Cooper-Eaton model could fit excellently (R2 > 0.99) with the experimental data. Analysis of compaction characteristics of the model (Ai and ki) and briquette density revealed that mixtures 0%L (PSD Small) and 100%L (PSD Large) were easier to compact compared to binary mixtures. Binary mixture 70%L was hardest to compact, evaluating from its lowest increase of density, from 893 to 1492 kg/m3. Relatively high coordination number at pressure 2 kPa on mixture 70%L (7.81 ± 0.20) might be the reason for high deformation difficulty. It was concluded that binary mixture of coal with the highest bulk density would results in briquette with the lowest density.[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Author keywords” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text]Bulk density,Coal mixture,Compaction characteristics,Coordination number,Different mass,Large particles,Rank coal,Size reduction process[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Indexed keywords” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text]binary mixtures,binder less briquetting,coal,Compaction characteristics,particle size distribution[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Funding details” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text]This study was supported financially by Bandung Institute of Technology as part of research, community service, and innovation programs (P3MI) in energy conversion group year 2018, within the research topic of Coal Upgrading Technology (CUT) development using low-temperature drying process and coal mechanical properties.[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”DOI” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text]https://doi.org/10.1080/19392699.2020.1823844[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1/4″][vc_column_text]Widget Plumx[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][/vc_column][/vc_row]
