Application of artificial neural network to study the performance of jig for beneficiation of non-coking coal

► Beneficiation of −3 + 0.3 mm size fraction non-coking coal using jig was studied. ► Effects of particle sizes of bed material and particle sizes of coal were studied. ► Effects of feed rate and water rate on the performance of the jig were studied. ► ANN model was proposed to predict ash and combustible recovery of the concentrate.
