Research of Kinetics of Coal Briquette Drying and Determination of the Optimum Mode Providing Fire and Explosion Safety

The role coal in power industry is predicted to be increased in future that is caused by its large stocks and depletion of oil and gas fields. Due to production growth, deterioration in mining and geological conditions and broad mechanization of production, the quality characteristics of coals as ash content, particle-size distribution, humidity and sulfur content worsen. Therefore, practically all mined coal requires enriching. The smallgrade and fine concentrates received after enrichment often happen to be unsuitable because of their fineness for further processing or direct use. Therefore briquetting is applied for possibility of further processing or increased utilization efficiency. Compared to the conventional fuel the briquetted fuel possesses higher calorific capacity and bigger stability during storage and transportation.
