In this study, the enrichment of the Zonguldak fine coal by using a homemade pilot-scale Jameson flotation cell was investigated. In the result of the experimental studies, a clean coal product ash 12.60% was produced from the 46.70% ash feed with a 77.61% combustible recovery by applying only scavenger stage. Besides, Jameson flotation cell design and operating parameters were optimized for coal flotation. These parameters were the nozzle height Jet length), the immersion depth of the downcomer, the collector amount, the frother amount, the percentage of solids and the rate of wash water.
