Proved in emergency situations as fast and economical, calcium chloride can be used in conjunction with other techniques for effective prevention of coal freezing. Calcium chloride solution depresses the freezing point, and should the temperature drop below this point, the ice that does form has a far lower compressive strength than ice normally exhibits.
