4 General Principles and Precision of Sampling
4.1 General Principles of Sampling
The objective of coal sampling and sample preparation is to obtain a test coal sample
whose test results are representative of the entire lot of coal being sampled.
The basic process of sampling and sample preparation is: firstly, from many points that
are distributed throughout the entire lot of coal, collect a significant amount of coal,
namely, primary increment; then, directly incorporate the various primary increments
into a gross sample, or, incorporate them after division; finally, through a series of
sample preparation procedure, prepare the gross sample into test coal samples of the
requested number and type.
The basic requirement of sampling is that all particles of the lot of coal being sampled
may enter the sampling equipment; each particle has an equal probability of being
taken into the sample.
In order to make sure that the precision of the test results of the obtained sample
satisfies the requirements, take the following factors into consideration during the
sample:
a) Variability of coal (generally, measured through the variance of primary
increment);
b) The number of gross samples taken from this lot of coal;
c) The number of increments of each gross sample;
When sampling is directly conducted from stationary coal, full-depth sample or different
depths (up, middle, down, or up and down) of sample shall be taken. When it can be
guaranteed that the quality of coal in the carrier is uniform, and stratified loading of
coal with different qualities does not exist, sampling from the top of the carrier is also
allowed.
No matter which mode is adopted for sampling, it shall all pass bias test to prove that
it has no substantial bias.
Under the circumstance of sampling from the top of train, truck and barge, immediately
take samples after the loading. When sampling is conducted after transportation, dig
a pit to 0.4 m ~ 0.5 m, then, take samples. Before the sampling, thoroughly eliminate
coal briquettes and gangues that fall to the bottom of the pit. Increments shall be
uniformly distributed on the sampling surface. Pay attention to large accumulations (for
example, accumulations in the corner or near the wall of the carrier) caused by isolation
during the handling process (for example, loading and unloading).
The opening of probe/drill or shovel used for manual sampling shall at least be 3 times
of the nominal top size of coal, and not less than 30 mm (see 9.1). The capacity of the
sampling apparatus shall be sufficiently large. The mass of the increments being taken
shall reach the requirements in 5.2.4.2. During the sampling, increments shall not fill
up the sampling apparatus, or, be overflowed from the sampling apparatus. In addition,
increments shall be taken at a time; do not throw the excessive part, or, make up the
deficient part.
While taking increments, the probe/drill or shovel shall be vertically (or, in a certain
inclination) inserted from the sampling surface. While taking increments, large-size
materials (for example, coal or gangue) shall not be intentionally pushed aside.
The number of sampling units, the number of increments, the minimum mass of
increments, and the minimum mass of gross sample are shown in 5.2.3 (or 5.3.2.4)
and 5.2.4.
6.2.2 Distribution of increments
6.2.2.1 Increment distribution method
6.2.2.1.1 Systematic sampling method
Divide the surface of the sampled compartment/barge into several small blocks with
an equal area; number them. Then, successively take one increment from the middle
part of each small block of each compartment/barge. The first increment shall be
randomly taken from the small blocks of the first compartment/barge; the remaining
increments shall be successively taken from the subsequent compartment/barge.
6.2.2.1.2 Random sampling method
blocks with an equal area (small blocks at the bottom of the coal stack shall
be at a distance of 0.5 m from the ground). Then, adopt the method of
systematic sampling or random sampling to determine the location of
sampling zone and the location of sampling points (small blocks) in each
zone. From each small block, take one full-depth, or, deep or top coal sample
from each small block. Under the circumstance when it is not new working
surface, firstly, eliminate 0.2 m of surface layer during the sampling;
b) When sampling is conducted on coal unloaded from bucket loader, unload
coal sample onto a clean surface. Then, in accordance with Method a), take
increments.
7 Intermittent Sampling Method
When sampling is often conducted on large lot of coal coming from the same coal
source and with stable quality (for example, incoming coal from port), the method of
intermittent sampling may be adopted. When intermittent sampling method is adopted,
obtain prior consent from relevant parties.
Intermittent sampling scheme shall be designed in accordance with 5.3.2.4.1 b).
8 Various Coal Sample Taking
Generally speaking, coal sample for coal analysis includes: general analysis sample
(sample used for the determination of general physical and chemical characteristics of
coal); total moisture sample (sample exclusive for the determination of total moisture);
common sample (sample used for multiple purposes, such as: the determination of full
moisture, and the determination of general physical and chemical characteristics);
physical sample (sample used for the analysis of special physical properties, for
example, physical strength index or particle size).
Samples used for the determination of total moisture may be independently taken, or,
be taken from common samples. Under the circumstance of extracting total moisture
samples from common samples, the number of primary increments being taken shall
be the greater number between the number of increments needed for ash content and
moisture determination. If after extracting moisture samples, the remaining samples
are insufficient for the required mass of the remaining tests, then, increase the number
of increments, till the mass of gross sample satisfies the requirement.
If necessary (for example, coal is extremely wet), moisture samples may be
independently taken. When moisture samples are independently taken, the following
points shall be considered:
a) Coal gradually loses moisture, due to drainage during the storage;
Probe and drill shall receive bias test in accordance with the stipulations in GB/T
19494.3. After they pass the bias test, they may be put into use.
9.2.1 Sampling bucket
Sampling bucket (see Figure a)) is made of materials that do not easily stick to coal
(for example, stainless steel). It is applicable to sampling in the falling coal stream.
9.2.2 Sampling shovel
Sampling shovel (see Figure 2 b)) is made of steel plates and is equipped with a
sufficiently long hand shank. If the sampling of coal with other particle sizes is
conducted, the size of the shovel may be accordingly adjusted. The head of the bottom
plate of the shovel may be pointed.
9.2.3 Probe
Generally speaking, probe is tubular. It may be vertically, or, in small inclinations,
inserted into coal. When inserting the probe into coal, it might be quite difficult. When
pulling the probe out of coal, coal might fall from the bottom.
The several types of probe demonstrated in the figures may be adopted for the
sampling of coal whose nominal top size is 25 mm.
Figure a c): constituted of two semi-circular tubes; the two semi-circular tubes may be
slid together and form a closed circular tube. The length of this type of probe may reach
3.5 m at the maximum. Long probes may be used for the sampling of coal whose
nominal top size is 20 mm.
Figure 2 d): the probe is constituted of a triangular slot tube with chute on both sides
and a flat plate that can slide along the chute. When this probe is put into use, remove
the sliding plate, insert the slot tube into coal. Then, insert the sliding plate back to its
previous position; pull out the probe.
9.2.4 Manual twist drill
Figure 2 e): the distance between the opening of the drill and the screw shall be 3
times of the nominal top size of the sampled coal.
9.2.5 Manual cutting bucket
Figure 2 f): used for the sampling of falling coal stream manually, or, with mechanical
assistance.
9.2.6 Stopping-belt sampling frame
Figure 2 g): the sampling frame is constituted of two parallel sideboards; the distance
between the boards is at least 3 times of the nominal top size of the sampled coal
