Abstract
Based on fractal theory, the geometric size, surface morphology, and spatial structure of flocs in the hydrophobic flocculation process of coal particles were examined via particle size distribution detection, image analysis technology, and numerical simulation. The floc size distribution curve was classified and discussed via the dual-domain fractal rule, and the variation law of the composition and distribution of the coarse- and fine-grained coal particle flocs with the flocculation process was clarified. The various levels and characteristics of the floc growth geometry were explained by the analysis of the fractal dimension of the individual floc surface and the multiple spectra of the floc groups in the metallographic microscopy image. The hydrophobic flocculation process of coal particles was simulated via the diffusion-limited cluster aggregation model. The gyration fractal dimension was used to examine floc fragmentation and reconstruction and clarify the growth law of the floc spatial structure during the hydrophobic flocculation process.
