Coal Processing and Utilization

"I am delighted that the book "Coal Processing and Utilization" has been published, and I express my sincere thanks to both authors for their untiring endeavor in writing such a vital and timely book. The topic is presented in a clear manner, and the unfolding concept of coal preparation and its utility is explained well through calculations and a problem-solving approach.

I firmly believe that this book will be highly useful for both graduate and postgraduate engineering students as well as practicing coal preparation engineers in the industry. I look forward to more publications of this kind in the near future."

"The beauty of the book that it is not bound by any boundaries of syllabus which is normally a part of text book. The use of simple English, small sentences, simple lucid style for proper understanding of concepts attracts any reader. This freelance style keeps the reader engrossed with the book, be it be a diploma - degree graduate student, fresher and professional executive. The integrated picture of coal characterization, processing and utilization has been portrayed beautifully meeting the objectives set in. The problems at end of the chapters with Indian context is noteworthy. The chapters on coal washing efficiency, carbonization, gasification, liquification and carbon capture - storage are exemplary. The book will be an asset to diploma, graduate and post graduate students, professionals of fuel, mineral, mining, chemical engineering, coal washeries and thermal - metallurgical plants."
