Applicability of coal slurry pipelines to the Appalachian region. Volume I. Final report
Technical Report
·
OSTI ID:5537836
The study focused on the coal flow network in Appalachia. The coal flows with potential for slurry pipeline applications were then analyzed in a series of case studies using coal demand projections for 1990. For each case study, the cost of coal transportation by a slurry pipeline was determined and compared to that of the competing modes. These case studies indicated that coal slurry pipelines are economicaly viable for Appalachia only in specific cases. The socioeconomic and environmental implications of coal slurry pipelines for the Appalachian Region were analyzed within the context of the highly probable applications.
