This volume is a collection of peer-reviewed articles providing a summary of the most recent accomplishments by many of the leaders of high-sulfur coal research and development. Improvements in coal cleaning technology by application of either physical, chemical, or biological processes, and new developments in both the froth flotation and oil agglomeration methods of cleaning are reported. Innovative electrostatic and aerodynamic methods are described for cleaning coal, and progress is noted in the development of coal desulfurization by either caustic leaching, oxidative leaching, microbial treatment, or low-temperature pyrolysis. Papers also included in this book concern the capture of sulfur oxides either during or following the combustion of coal; sorbent characterization and the effects of different factors and/or additives on sorbent utilization; the capture of sulfur oxides in various types of combustion systems, including pulverized coal, slagging, fluidized bed and magnetohydrodynamic systems. Recent technical developments are reported for sorbent injection in flue-gas ducts as a means of capturing sulfur oxides.
