  1. Koppern Equipment, Pittsburgh, PA (United States)
This will be the third of a series of papers at this Conference discussing the briquetting of coal. While the first presentation in 1993 covered the historical and technical fundamentals, equipment designs, as well as traditional and contemporary applications, the second paper in 1994 looked at briquetting as an upgrading process for different types of coal. This years Conference theme is: {open_quotes}1995 - The year of Compliance{close_quotes}. Therefore, the paper will show that briquetting plays an important, often critical role in the production of coal based compliance fuel. After summarizing present clean coal technologies and the characteristics of coal based compliance fuels resulting from such processes the beneficial and economical application of modem roller presses is being dismissed.
