Summary

The mineable Lati coal reserves for R and Q seams excluded mine out March 2000 which in
stripping ratio below 7 are 24.84 million metric tonnes, consist of 14.85 million metric tonnes R
seam and 9.99 million metric tonnes Q seam.

66.10% of mineable coal reserve or 16.42 million metric tonnes within ash fusion temperature
value below and equal 1300oC and 24.84% of mineable coal reserve or 8.42 million metric
tonnes within ash fusion temperature value upper 1300oC. Both are ash fusion temperatures in
flow reducing condition.

Where, the long-term market to Jawa Power with the spec of reducing ash fusion temperature is
1,050oC initial deformation, 1,200oC softening, 1,280oC hemisphere, and 1,300oC flow. Rejection,
when a coal supply within ash fusion temperature below 1,300oC flow in reducing condition.

Based on statement above, for the long-term coal supply to Jawa Power is used upgrading ash
fusion temperature content. The study has addressed to consent "how to upgrade ash fusion
temperature of a coal in Lati Area."

Generalize, increases ash content in a coal correlated with increases ash fusion temperature
value and the ash fusion temperature is assumed under influence of the composition ash mineral
in ash of a coal. From 20% minimum contains of Al2O3, CaO and Fe2O3 of R and Q seams Lati
area that showed the increases Al2O3, CaO to followed increases ash fusion temperature, while
the increases Fe2O3 to followed decreases ash fusion temperature.

The upgrading ash fusion temperature of R and Q seams Lati Area can do as follows:

Blending between Low ash fusion temperature and high ash fusion temperature of a coal.

Adding percentage of ash in coal with high Al2O3 and or CaO contents.

Adding percentage of ash in coal can do with blending system between fine coal and non-coal,
and spraying black wall paint to fine coal. Spraying system its better than direct blending.

Although spraying black wall paint to fine coal that caused increases ash fusion temperature but
its not economics. Therefore, upgrading ash fusion temperature of R and Q seams Lati area for a
while just can do blending both of a coal.

1. Introduction

The mineable Lati coal reserves for R and Q seams excluded mine out March 2000 which in
stripping ratio below 7 are 24.84 million metric tonnes, consist of 14.85 million metric tonnes R
seam and 9.99 million metric tonnes Q seam. Mineable coal reserve calculated based on
topographic map scale 1:1,000, drill holes data up to 1999, < 3% Na2O Free SO3 and < 0.8%
Total Sulfur in as received basis. The coal reserve can be changed by additional data or
calculation parameter.

66.10% of mineable coal reserve or 16.42 million metric tonnes within ash fusion temperature
value below and equal 1300oC and 24.84% of mineable coal reserve or 8.42 million metric tonnes
within ash fusion temperature value upper 1300oC. Both are ash fusion temperatures in flow
reducing condition.

Where, the long-term markets to Jawa Power with the spec of reducing ash fusion temperature
are 1,050oC initial deformation, 1,200oC softening, 1,280oC hemisphere, and 1,300oC flow.
Rejection, when a coal supply within ash fusion temperature below 1,300oC flow in reducing
condition.

Based on statement above, for the long-term coal supply to Jawa Power is used upgrading ash
fusion temperature content. The study has addressed to consent "how to upgrade ash fusion
temperature of a coal in Lati Area."

2. Ash Fusion Temperature

Ash fusion Temperature describes the softening and melting characteristic of ash and are
measured according to standard procedures by gradually heating a prepared sample in the shape
of a cone and observing it profile. The critical profiles at which temperature measurement are
made and defined as (after Bruce Proudfoot & others, 1999) :

Initial Deformation, the temperature at which the first signs of rounding of the tip or edges of
the piece occur.

Softening, the temperature at which the cone has fused to a spherical lump (i.e. height equal
to base diameter).

Hemispherical, the temperature at which the test pieces forms approximately a hemisphere
(i.e. height equal to half-base diameter).

Flow, the temperature at which the ash is spread out, the height of which is one third that at
the hemisphere temperature.

The condition is carried out either completely reducing (a mixture of hydrogen with carbon
dioxide) or completely oxidizing (air or carbon dioxide). The specimen is heated at 5oC per minute
from 900oC to a maximum of 1600oC.
Ash Fusion temperatures are regularly measured under both oxidizing and reducing conditions.
Those measured under oxidizing conditions are normally higher to an extent depending on the
presence of certain components of the ash, such as iron oxide, which have different fluxing
effects when in the oxidized and reduced forms.

Ash fusion temperature is one of others of physical ash property, while ash as determined in coal
analysis, may be defined as the non-combustible residue that remains when coal is burned. The
composition of the ash gives in ash analysis, a useful guide to the type of mineral present in a
coal, there are:

Silicon as SiO2
Titanium as TiO2
Sodium as Na2O
Phosphorus as P2O5

Aluminum as Al2O3
Iron as Fe2O3
Potassium as K2O
Sulfur as SO3.

Calcium as CaO
Magnesium as MgO
Manganese as Mn3O4

Of the above minerals, silicon, aluminum and titanium are considered to be acid, while the
remainders are regarded as basic (after Bruce Proudfoot & others, 1999).

The relationship between ash mineral present in ash of a coal and ash fusion temperature in Lati
Area that showed in graphic 1 to 3, within 89 data points of R seam and 105 data points of Q
seam.

Based on the third graphic within increases from 20% minimum contains of Al2O3, CaO and
Fe2O3, that showed increases Al2O3, CaO to followed increases ash fusion temperature, while
the increases Fe2O3 to followed decreases ash fusion temperature.

The value of ash fusion temperature is assumed under influence of the composition ash mineral
present in coal, but the exactly correlated is difficult presented on the formula.

Carabodgan, Singer and Panoiu, 1964 (in Teichmuller and others, 1982) They have studied the
influence of mineral in coal on the fusion temperature and defined a factor :

CaO, MgO, Fe2O3


R = -----------------------SiO2 + Al2O3
With increases value of R the fusion temperature also increases, such as sample of R and Q
seams in graphic 4 to 6, and the fusion temperature decreases with increases ratio between SiO2
and Al2O3 values, such as sample of R and Q seams in graphic 7.

With increases value of R correlated with increases value of ash fusion temperature, such as
sample of R and Q seams in graphic 8.

3. Blending System

Obviously, that ash fusion temperature is one of others of physical ash property but it is assumed
under influence of the composition ash mineral in ash of a coal. Therefore, it is acceptable that
the low ash fusion temperature to blend with high ash fusion temperature but the produce is not
an acceptable product, for example is showed in table 1.

The upgrading value of ash fusion temperature can do to blend between low ash fusion
temperature and high ash fusion temperature of a coal. Beside that, can do to add percentage of
ash in coal with blending between low ash fusion temperature of a coal and high ash fusion
temperature of non-coal material.

3.1. Coal

The mineable coal reserve of R and Q seams excluded mine out March 2000 which in stripping
ratio below 7 are 24.84 million metric tonnes, consist of 14.85 million metric tonnes R seam and
9.99 million metric tonnes Q seam. Mineable coal reserve calculated based on drill holes data up
to 1999, < 3% Na2O Free SO3 and < 0.8% Total Sulfur in as received basis. Both are quality
parameters, it's coal spec for supply to Jawa Power. The mineable coal reserve can be changed
by additional data, such as drilling, topographic map, coal quality parameter and stripping ratio.

The ash fusion temperature value of mineable coal reserve R and Q seams is showed in table2,
such as :

14.85 million metric tonnes of R seam consists of 14.68 million metric tonnes with ash fusion
temperature 1,312oC in flow reducing condition and 0.17 million metric tonnes without ash
fusion temperature value.

9.99 million metric tonnes of Q seam consists of 9.99 million metric tonnes with ash fusion
temperature 1,244oC in flow reducing condition and 0.002 million metric tonnes without ash
fusion temperature value.

Composite of R and Q seams is 24.67 million metric tonnes with ash fusion temperature
1,285oC in flow reducing condition and 0.17 million metric tonnes without ash fusion
temperature value.

Based on statement above in table 2, the amount of 24.67 million metric tonnes combine of R and
Q seams within ash fusion temperature value 1,285oC in flow reducing condition, it's save for coal
supply to Jawa Power. The ash fusion temperature is in ranges of reproducibility value, it's80oC
for flow in reducing condition (ASTM, 1998). Be considered the composite produce of ash fusion
temperature is not an acceptable product, for example is showed in table 1.

The mineable coal reserve of R and Q seams with diversified ash fusion temperature value based
on rejection point <1,250oC, critical point between 1,250oC to 1,300oC, and save point 1,300oC<
are showed in table 3. All of ash fusion temperature value in flow reducing condition. The amount
of 0.17 million metric tonnes both are R and Q seams, that without ash fusion temperature value
is assumed as <1,250oC.

Within table 3 can be explain, such as:

32.06% of mineable coal reserve R and Q seams or 7.96 million metric tonnes of a coal that
rejection point for coal supply to Jawa Power.

34.04% of mineable coal reserve R and Q seams or 8.45 million metric tonnes of a coal that

33.90% of mineable coal reserve R and Q seams or 8.42 million metric tonnes of a coal that
save for coal supply to Jawa Power.

Based on statement above in table 3, the amount of 33.90% of mineable coal reserve R and Q
seams or 8.42 million metric tonnes within upper 1,300oC, it's save for coal supply to Jawa Power.
66.10% of mineable coal reserve R and Q seams or 16.42 million metric tonnes within below and
equal 1,300oC, it's critical to rejection point for coal supply to Jawa Power. Both are ash fusion

3.2. Non Coal

Non-coal describes as a material that has high ash content. In graphic 10 that showed with
increases ash content also increases ash fusion temperature. Therefore, upgrading value of ash
fusion temperature can do to add percentage of ash in coal within high contents of Al2O3 and or
CaO, which in clays or carbonates group mineral type. The more common minerals found in coal
are showed in table 4.

The blending coal and non-coal (clays or carbonates group) beside can do to increase ash fusion
temperature value but another parameter quality will be decrease especially calorific value.

Non coal materials that easy to get in mining area are interburden and overburden materials of
the coal seams, such as : soil, mudstone (clay), sand, coally shale (that usually found in roof or
floor of the coal seams) and scoria. Those material qualities are showed in appendix 1 included
others material thats not found in mining area.

A Coal blending with soil or scoria which have high ash fusion temperature, such as about
1,370oC deformation and 1,560oC flow of soil and about 1,380oC deformation and more than
1,600oC Flow of scoria, while values of hemisphere and spherical between values of deformation
and flow. Both are ash fusion temperatures in reducing condition. Disadvantages of soil and
scoria, both are nil of calorific value that caused calorific value of coals blending will be high
decrease. Beside that, the colour of scoria is red that caused contras with color of a coal.

A coal blending with coaly shale, the advantages of color is like a coal, but source of coaly shale
is very little so difficult to get it in great quantities. The ash fusion temperature of coaly shale in
reducing condition is about 1,200oC deformation and 1,500oC flow and calorific value is about 565
kcal/kg in air dried bases, the assumed of the calorific value will be able more than it.

Mudstone has calorific value between 275 to 600 kcal/kg in air-dried bases and ash fusion
temperature between 1,030oC to 1,330oC deformations and 1,250oC to 1,500oC flows, both are in
reducing condition.

10

The advantages of mudstone to blend with a coal if compared with another materials of
interburden and overburden of the coal seams are:

Mudstone has a calorific value, therefore calorific value of a coal blending will be lower
decrease than soil and scoria. While, ash contents at all of materials relative the same are
about 80%.

Mudstone has a great quantity of source and very easy to get it, caused its majoring
material removed in mine operation.

Another material that can do to upgrade ash fusion temperature is zeolite. Zeolite is a group of
tektosilicates within contains of SiO2, Ca, K, Na, Ba. The show powerful properties of Base
Exchange clay minerals with occur of volcanic rocks (after Whitten & Brooks, 1972).
Ash fusion temperature of zeolite is 1,200oC deformation and 1,500oC flow in reducing condition.
Within source of zeolite is out of mine area and the value of ash fusion temperature is almost the
same with mudstone, therefore a coal blending with zeolite is not effective.

Generalize, mudstone is better than another materials that can do to blend with a coal for
upgrading value of ash fusion temperature, while disadvantages of mudstone to blend with a coal
are describe as:

Within high ash content that caused calorific value of a coal blending decrease.

The property of mudstone is sticky when wet and will be able to make clotting with a coal.

The mixture of mudstone is about 1% from about 5000 tonnes of coal. It's very difficult to
make homogenous blending.

Obviously, mudstone is sticky when wet and will be able to make clotting with a coal and varieties
value of ash fusion temperature (table 5), with ranges over than reproducibility value by ASTM
1998 (table 6).

Based on statement above, when a coal blending with mudstone is needed additional handling,
such as:

Mudstones before blending with a coal must be crush or screen which in loose less than
50 millimeter (mudstone size must be less than top coal size).

Its needed mudstone storage and its better close to coal processing plan.

Caused coal blending with mudstone is very difficult to make homogenous, so to take another
alternative. It is adding mineral present in a coal, which in liquid form and spraying to a coal in
stockpile processing together with a liquid that use to preventive self-combustion of a coal and
decreases air pollution of fly ash or spraying to a coal its self.

With in the assumed that the value of ash fusion temperature under influence of ash mineral in a
coal and Al2O3 and or CaO is one of others mineral that caused ash fusion temperature
increases with increases both are of ash minerals. Therefore, within to add percentage contains
of both are minerals in coal is expressly increased value of ash fusion temperature.

Al2O3 is a simple oxide with the white powder form and it's not soluble in water. One of others
compound of Al2O3 that soluble in water is Al2SO4. The form of Al2SO4 like Al2O3 is white
powder. Ash fusion temperature of Al2SO4 is less than 900oC of deformation in reducing
condition, while a melting simple oxide of Al2O3 is 2,043oC. Low ash fusion temperature of
Al2SO4 may be that caused by sulfur in SO4.

CaO like Al2O3 is a simple oxide with the white powder form. One of others compound of CaO
that soluble in water is CaCO3. Ash fusion temperature of CaCO3 is more than 1,600oC of
deformation in reducing condition, while a melting simple oxide of CaO is 2,521oC.

Interaction takes place at elevated temperatures producing complex salts that have entirely
different physical constants from the simple oxides. Among other changes, the melting

12

temperatures of the compounds are usually lowered to simple oxides temperature is showed in
table 7 (J.Sligar).

Base on the assumed of the increases Al2O3 and or CaO to followed increases ash fusion
temperature and black wall paint with the majoring made of Kaolinite (Al2O3.2SiO2.H2O),
Calcium Carbonate (CaCO3) and others chemical composition. Therefore, it's tried to spray black
wall paint to fine coal.

The experiment result to be indicated that ash fusion temperature increases with spraying black
wall paint to fine coal and affect another qualities, such as: increases calorific value, sulfur content
and decreases inherent moisture (table 8). The increase calorific value may be caused by
decrease inherent moisture.

The feasible economics spraying black wall paint to find coal is about one liter liquid solution for
one ton find coal with composition 2% liquid solution, but it's impossible that caused increases
ash fusion temperature. Therefore, in liquid solution to add 0.02% mudstone powder from total
sprayed of find coal.

Based on statement above is tried 25 kg find coal sprayed by 250 ml liquid solution with
composition 5 ml black wall paint, 245 ml water and 5 gram mudstone powder. The tried result to
be indicated that ash fusion temperature is not increase (table 9).

4. Conclusion

The value of ash fusion temperature is under influences ash mineral composition in coal. Coal
properties of R and Q seams in Lati Area, from 20% minimum contains of Al2O3, CaO and
Fe2O3, that showed with the increase Al2O3, CaO to followed increase ash fusion temperature,
while the increase Fe2O3 to followed decrease ash fusion temperature.

The upgrading ash fusion temperature of R and Q seams Lati Area can do as follows:

Blending between Low ash fusion temperature and high ash fusion temperature of a coal.

Adding percentage of ash in coal with high Al2O3 and or CaO contents.

Adding percentage of ash in coal can do with blending system between fine coal and non-coal,
and spraying black wall paint to fine coal. Spraying system its better than direct blending.

Although spraying black wall paint to fine coal that caused increases ash fusion temperature but
its not economics. Therefore, upgrading ash fusion temperature of R and Q seams Lati area for a
while just can do blending both of a coal.
