Coal Washing Results


The analysis of the coal tailings before being processed (the certificate dated January 27, 2006), showed that the coal not only had an inordinate amount of ash (17.6%), severely de-valuing the coal, the coal also had a low BTU, a value used to evaluate the heat produced by 1 U.S. pound of the material. The raw coal produced 11,419 BTU's per pound (in the 'as sampled', 'as received' state). A minimum of 12,000 BTU's is required for NYMEX traded coal, for example, with the maximum allowable ash value on NYMEX traded coal is (by weight) 13.5%.

These results were achieved by utilizing a single stage wash system in Bartow, Florida. A complete multi-stage system similar to previous wash plants built by Richcorp, Inc. for applying their enzyme technology is being assembled for maximizing these results for the process for application on a coal washing project in Pennsylvania.
