Hardgrove Grindability Index analysis is the ASTM method of determining the hardness of coal when pulverized for steam generation or size reduction. Grindabilities typically range on coal from 35 – 110. Harder and less grindable coal rates a smaller HGI index
The Hardgrove Method.*This method consists of grinding a 50-gram sample of coal, sized between 16- and 30-mesh in a ball mill consisting of eight one-inch steel balls rolling on a stationary ring and driven by a rotating plate for 60 revolutions at a speed of 21 rpm. A screen analysis is made using sieves of 16-, 30-, 60-, 100-, 140-, 200-, 230-, and 300-mesh and new-surface units computed by a method based on Rittinger''s theory th a t surface area is proportional to the reciprocal of diameter. The coals are rated on a relative basis with the new-surface units of an Upper Kit- tanning Coal …
· The Hardgrove grindability is calculated for unoxidized (reduced) coking coal of different types (corresponding to Ukrainian State Standard DSTU 3472:2015). To assess the mechanical properties of coal, it is best to determine their Hardgrove grindability …
· Hardgrove grindability is a measure of the relative ease with which a coal sample can be pulverized or ground to smaller sizes. All mined coals need to be ground to very small sizes (often powder size) before being utilized.
Abstract In this research, different techniques for the estimation of coal HGI values are studied. Data from 163 sub-bituminous coals from Turkey are used by featuring 11 coal parameters, which include proximate analysis, group maceral analysis and rank. Non-linear regression and neural network techniques are used for predicting the HGI values for the specified coal parameters. Results ...
The Hardgrove grindability test and test machinery are designed and developed to characterize the relative grindability of coals. The Hardgrove grindability index represents a composite physico-mechanical property of the coal, embracing a number of specific properties such as hardness, strength, tenacity and fracture, and is a function primarily of coal rank and secondarily of coal type.
· The Hardgrove Grindability Index was developed in the 1930s from experimental work by R. Hardgrove to determine the relative difficulty of reducing various coals to a particle size ...
· Methods of assessing coal strength are compared on the basis of a literature review. The Hardgrove grindability index (HGI) is the most expedient.There is a close relation between HGI and the coal quality, as well as the power consumed in grinding. Accordingly, the HGI values of coal samples may be used to optimize the crushing of coal as a preliminary to coke production.
The article reviews the work done on various aspects of Hardgove grindability of coals conducted in different countries of the world during the period 1932-66. The published papers could be grouped into two broad categories, namely, routine assessment of HGI and ...
The resultant size consist is used to produce an index relative to the ease of grinding [Hardgrove Grindability Index (HGI)]. 1.1.1 Some coals, such as some high-volatile bituminous, subbituminous, and lignite coals, can undergo physical change as the natural or …
· GRINDABILITY OF COALThe measure of the coal resistanceto crushing is said to be the grindability of a coal.Generally, lignite and anthracites are more resistant togrinding than bituminous coals. Two major factors, themoisture and ash contents of a coal are affecting thegrindability.
Grindability refers to the ease of pulverizing a coal sample compared to certain reference coals. The standard method of coal grindability is called Hardgrove (ASTM D409), though this method does not provide reproducible and repeatable results for hard coal
· Five coals representing four distinct coal sources blended at a midwestern power station were subjected to detailed analysis of their Hardgrove grindability.
(Hardgrove Grindability Index (HGI)). 1.1.1 Some coals, such as some high-volatile bituminous, subbituminous, and lignite coals, can undergo physical change as the natural or seam moisture is released during handling and preparation. This change is often
The influence of the moisture of some coals on their grindability (Hardgrove Grindability Index) has been previously correlated by several authors; some of them will be mentioned later. Those correlations, however, could not be immediately applied to any coal since it is still believed that there are other factors which influence the grindability of the coal, such as type and rank of the coal.

Hardgrove Grindability Index (HGI) The Hardgrove Grindability Index (HGI) is a measure of coal''s resistance to crushing. Grinding studies, and the resulting HGI, allow many different types of coal users to evaluate how coals will perform in their mills, allowing them to estimate grinding power requirements and throughput capacities.
Grindability index of coal is an important technological parameter to understand the behaviour and assess the relative hardness of coals of varying ranks and grades during comminution. This is usually determined by Hardgrove Grindability Index (HGI), which involves requirement of a costly grinding equipment and accessories not readily available and affordable. Due to heterogeneous character of ...
