Title: Physical pretreatment, comminution and physical separation
Abstract: This discussion is concerned with the comminution of coals to small particles before further use or conversion. Work in this area is intended to measure the actual fracture energies required to make small particles, to better our understanding of the properties and mechanisms controlling breakage, and to examine the characteristics of the particles formed in order to assess them for separation or other processing. The insights gained should lead to new concepts in comminution equipment (which equipment is presently grossly energy-inefficient); major improvements in comminution can lead to major advances in coal separations and conversion or utilization.
