Abstract

High and Low S coal gave 40% desulphurization • 60% desulphurization from Rawson and Rice (1990) 500W for 2x60sec intervals 30% desulphurization from Araya et al. (1981) [Chilean coal] conventional leaching for 8h Promising enough to continue?: Investigate ME saved vs caloric energy lost Overall economics Mossbauer to investigate Fe-S structural changes.
