Abstract

A low-rank coal oil agglomeration process is described. High mineral content, a high ash content subbituminous coals are effectively agglomerated with a bridging oil which is partially water soluble and capable of entering the pore structure, and is usually coal-derived.

Low-rank coal oil agglomeration

Patent Application Knudson, C.L.; Timpe, R.C.

This patent describes a method of producing low ash, low moisture coal agglomerate. It comprises size- reducing coal particles to a size that passes through a 60 mesh standard sieve screen; adjusting the pH of the particles to 5 or less with an acid which facilitates removal of cations from carboxylic acid salts with the mineral phase of the low moisture coal; mixing the size-reduced particles with from about 20% by weight to about 50% by weight of a coal tar unprocessed derived bridging oil; and agglomerating the size reduced particles.
Low-rank coal oil agglomeration product and process

Patent Knudson, C.L.; Timpe, R.C.; Potas, T.A.; ...

A selectively-sized, raw, low-rank coal is processed to produce a low ash and relative water-free agglomerate with an enhanced heating value and a hardness sufficient to produce a non-degradable, shippable fuel. The low-rank coal is treated, under high shear conditions, in the first stage to cause ash reduction and subsequent surface modification which is necessary to facilitate agglomerate formation. In the second stage the treated low-rank coal is contacted with bridging and binding oils under low shear conditions to produce agglomerates of selected size. The bridging and binding oils may be coal or petroleum derived. The process incorporates a thermalmore »« less
