DC: The results of laboratory tests of compaction and extrusion of coal fines into coal logs is the focus of this paper. Preliminary results show that making coal logs is a promising solution to the coal fines problem. A machine has been designed for rapid production of coal logs in commercial settings.

Brown, G. J. et al. Part. Part. Syst. Charact., 1996, 13, (4), 260-263. The authors determined the avalanching behaviour of two coal types, one of good and the other of poor handleability characteristics. This revealed significant differences in the nature of flow of the coals. The criteria established will now enable a structured study of the variables that affect handleability and also permit industrial consumers of coal to specify minimum acceptable limits for its transport characteristics.

Bhat, S. and Agarwal. P. K. Fuel, 1996. 75, (13), 1523-1532 The current work extends the reaction-diffusion approach developed previously, considering the effects of moisture evaporation and condensation on the rate of oxidation of coal. It is shown that partial wetting of coal or condensation of moisture exerts two competing influences on the overall rate of oxidation. Based on the Insight provided by the model, a simple criterion is derived to determine conditions under which condensation of moisture on coal can lead to spontaneous combustion. This model is thought to be the first mathematical description which links the coamoisture interaction to the potential for spontaneous combustion.

Coal & Slurry Technology Association, Washington, DC. This testing of the process, using a high-gravity solid bowl centrifuge for dewatering and reconstitution of fine-cleaned-coal slurry is detailed. Finecleaned-coal slurry was treated with a bitumen emulsion before dcwatering in a high-gravity solid-bowl centrifuge. The treated products appeared to be dry and in a free-flowing granular form, while the untreated products were wet, lumpy, sticky, and difficult to handle. The freezing problem was also alleviated.

Wilson, J. W. and Ding, Y. Truns. Sot. Mitt.. Mrtull., Explor., 1005, (Pub. 1996), 298, l921-lY24iSection 2. Small coal particles are produced during the pulverizing operation of the ultrafine coal-cleaning process. After the coal-cleaning process, these ultrafine particles are very difficult to dewater and create problems in coal transportation, storage and handling at utility plants. Research on ultrafine coal dewatering and briquetting resulted in the development of a singlestage operation that is potentially more effective and economical than conventional thermal drying and briquetting processes. The final coal product has a moisture content of less than 15% and possesses high strength and water resistance that satisfies coal transportation, storage and handling requirements.

Wu, G. et al. Proc. Annu. Int. Pittsburgh Coal Conf: 1995, 12, 542-547. In order to study the pressure drop in CWS pipeline transportation both in laminar and turbulent flow, mathematical models have been developed. In addition, the laminar-turbulent transition criterion for CWS pipeline flow is proposed. The model calculations can be used in drag prediction in the engineering design of a CWS transportation system.

hydromethanolysis with coke-oven gas 3. coke-oven gas components on the char

Braekman-Damheux, C. et ul. Fuel. 1996. 75, (II), 1274-1278. To improve the economy of the hydropyrolysis process by reducing the hydrogen cost, the use of coke-oven gas instead of pure hydrogen has been proposed. The results show the char obtained after pyrolysis under cokeoven gas pressure is not fundamentally different from those obtained under inert or hydrogen pressure, at least in porosity, optical texture and oxyreactivity in fixed and fluidized beds. The results clearly show the possibility of using coke-oven gas for coal pyrolysis and lead to the conclusion that synergy between metallurgical cokemaking and ‘creaming-off’ coal by hydropyrolysis will be profitable to both processes.
