In order to run the plant effectively, lignite handling system should be maintained effectively. Therefore,segregation of marcasite are required due to the absence of the pulveriser mill which is because of the boilers used ismade of ecofriendly Circulated Fluidized Bed Combustion system. Marcasite is an iron sulphide ore (FeS2) appears to bepale yellowish green in colour which are much harder than lignite (hardness is 6- 6.5 on Mohs scale), damages themining and lignite processing equipment. These marcasites are manually picked in stockyard, some are escaped anddamages the Lignite Handling Systems. Here our aim is to give a solution to segregate and remove these marcasites fromlignite in order to safeguard the equipment of lignite handling system and boiler.
