Early 1980’s developments
DGP-2 at the Počerady power plant stockyard (1985)
On-line monitoring in mines in 1990’s

Economy of coal utilization
Consumer side Most of focus on utilization efficiency Direct feedback by plant performance score Not too much options to handle coal quality
Mine / Washery Good opportunity to manage coal quality Focus on coal quality based on profit Focus on expenses of extraction and washing No direct feedback
Implementation of alternative procedures: Coal blending at mine/stockpile Minimize coal washing Mines to produce homogenous coal quality
The Coal Quality Management Systems are designed to improve the economy of coal utilization. Both producer side and consumer side do have possibilities to gain the improvements in operational efficiency:
Coal suitability for processing

Ad : 61,5 %
Sd : 2,2 %
Qr : 12,6 MJ/kg
Ad : 28,8 %
Sd : 2,3 %
Qr : 10,4 MJ/kg
Ad : 39,8 %
Sd : 1,4 %
Qr : 14,0 MJ/kg

Ad : 17,1 %
Sd : 2,7 %Qr : 10,7 MJ/kg
Ad : 37,0 %
Sd : 3,0 %
Coal quality fluctuation in different seams brings difficulties in further processing of coal.
Fluctuation of input coal quality decreases the efficiency of blending.There is a need of stable input to produce stable results of blending.
Possible solutions
Monitoring of the coal washery performance Monitoring of inputs and outputs Monitoring of rejects Active controlling of washing process
Simplified coal blending with direct feedback Blending is achieved minimum investments into existing technology Direct feedback allows adaptable blending ratio
Coal homogenization at the stockyard Homogenized coal is more suitable for blending or consumption Corrective actions can be taken to gain desired result

Total coal quality management systems
Total quality management systems cover the whole coal treatment process to achieve improvements of coal utilization efficiency. Stable power generation and production of coal-fired facilities bring positive environmental and economic effect.
Total quality management systems are not only a question of technical equipment but also a symbiosis of rules and decisions.
Total quality management systems guarantee customer satisfaction in any stage of the process.
Total quality management systems utilize: Input information Technical tools Coal flow management

The operation of the whole technology is monitored by the online analyzersand controlled by the PLC system to ensure compliance with customer requirements.
Technical tools of coal quality management
Online sensors: Determination of machine position (GPS, RF triangulation, positioning) Machine status information Belt weighers Coal analysis (as per need: ash, moisture, calorific, sulfur) Monitoring equipment (CCTV system, security system etc.)
Supporting technology: Automatic coal samplers Laboratory rapid-analyzers

Tušimice mine – coal stockyard is fully integrated into quality control systemand uses the online coal quality measurement to control homogenization
Coal flow management
Suitable timing: Managing of coal quality requires a time to react to actual situation Needed reaction time depends on speed of transportation, capacity of
intermediate storage and response time of monitoring methods
Stockyards: The stockyard can keep coal for several days or weeks Outlet from the stockyard is predictable Stockyard can become active part of coal handling and blending
Coal flow redirection: Usually requires technology adaptation Enables conditional coal handling Optional coal circulation offers efficient correction tool

Project example – Tušimice mine
The company has been established in 1953 – state owned company
At present owned by ČEZ a.s. In time of maximal production:
Employees - 4800 Mined overburden 55 mil. m3 Coal mining 9 excavators, 22 mil. t. of coal/year
At present: Employees - 1350 Overburden layer thickness 100 – 120 m, 3 excavators Mined overburden 27 mil. m3 6 excavators types KU 300 and K800, 13,5 – 15
mil.tons/year The most important customers:
ČEZ a.s. , Power plant Tušimice ČEZ a.s. , Power plant Prunéřov I. and II. ČEZ a.s. , Power plant Chvaletice
Coal mine Nástup Tušimice
Coal parameters Brown coal Ash content: 17% – 43% Sulfur content: 1,2% – 6,7% Heating value: 8,5 MJ/kg – 13,5 MJ/kg Coal grain size – end product 0 – 40 mm Customers ´ requirements for end product:
Heating value 10,5 – 11,5 MJ/kg, Max. content of sulfur - 3 %

The stockyard control module performs mapping andstatistic evaluation of stored coal parameters.
Coal Quality Management System Economic profit
Before the online measurement started lab samples were evaluated only time needed for measurement and evaluation – ca 3 days quick answer for quality changes was not possible high penalties if coal parameters were not fulfilled up to 2 mil.t / year of coal had to be rejected
After the online measurement was put in operation coal mixing directly on belt conveyors quick answer to coal quality changes decreased penalties for low quality coal deliveries
After the homogenization process started penalties decreased to zero previously unusable coal can be mixed in homogenization
process and sold (ca 2 mil. t / year)
