coal-cleaning plant in Alabama successfully reduced moisture from ultrafine coal waste. US coal producers each year discard large amounts of moisture-laden fines (small, coarse coal particles) that are typically deposited in containment ponds or impoundments as a slurry. Coal recovery from the sludge was greater than 97%.
