OSTI ID:7090967

This report presents progress for the third quarter of performance on Contract Number DE-AC-83-PC63032. The effort includes Tasks 6 through 13 of a continuing program to demonstrate the TRW Gravimelt coal cleaning technology. The technical effort this quarter was concentrated in three areas: design, fabrication and installation of a four-stage countercurrent flow reactor system, evaluation of regeneration concepts for spent caustic and spent acid wash water and filtration studies involving installation and operation of a commercial bag filter. Thus, the process development activities have entered an equipment evaluation and regeneration testing phase. 4 figures, 1 table.
