The Coal Handbook: Towards Cleaner Coal Supply Chains; Volume One; Second Edition presents a comprehensive analysis of the latest technology and practices. The book provides authoritative insights into a variety of case studies to help readers identify the most appropriate technologies to take coal; and its associated by-products; into an essential cleaner environment that includes integrated energy systems. The book's expertise highlights the future direction of coal use towards more efficient and clean usage. Key emerging topics such as hybrid technologies; integrated power and chemical processes; and advanced CO2 abatement strategies are explored; with a focus on economic and sustainable values.
In addition; the book includes two brand new chapters on the optimization of mine development and the impacts of tailings treatment. With its distinguished editor and international team of expert contributors; the book is a comprehensive and invaluable resource for professionals in the coal mining; preparation and utilization industry; those in the power sector; including plant operators and engineers; and researchers and academics interested in this field.
