The 9th International Conference on Energy, Resources, Environment and Sustainable Development (ERESD 2022)

The deep integration of new generation information technology and manufacturing is triggering far-reaching industry transformation. Coal separation, as an important part of the clean utilization of coal resources, is gradually moving from automation and informatization to intelligence, to comply with national “dual-carbon” development strategic plan. However, in the actual production, it is often faced with the problems, such as difficult detection of operation indices in the product quality and output, time-varying working conditions, unclear mechanism, difficult design of control methods, complex control structures and difficult verification of control systems, which pose new challenges for intelligent coal separation. This report focuses on the actual demand for intelligent coal separation, takes the heavy medium separation process as the background, combines data and knowledge, integrates intelligent behaviour and intelligent methods, modelling and control, and introduces them into the intelligent coal separation process. Additionally, the intelligent modelling method of coal separation process, the operation optimization structure and design methods, and the hardware-in-the-loop experimental research platform are introduced, and the opportunities and challenges brought by the next industrial Internet are discussed.
