Coal Flow as Liquid Fueling a New Electric Application
A novel process grinds coal to a fine slurry that behaves like a liquid under electricity. The concept envisions coal flowing smoothly through conduits and seeking its own level, enabling unique energy transport and conversion prospects.
New Process Turns Coal Into Liquid Like Fuel
Engineers report a level developed to convert coal into a powdery fuel usable like oil. A hammer mill grinds coal to quarter inch, then an electric pulverizer vibrating sixty times a second further refines it. Powder passes a 500 opening per square inch screen, enabling smaller fireboxes and space savings on locomotives and ships.
