Graphene Conctere From Coal Tackles Sand Crises Experts unveil graphene from metallurgical coke as a sustainable substitute for sand in concrete, offering a 25% lighter yet equally tough alternative, addressing the impending ‘sand crisis. ce University researchers have uncovered a…
Coal gasification involves the conversion of coal into electricity, hydrogen, and other energy products. Gasification is a thermo-chemical process that breaks down coal – or virtually any carbon-based source – into its basic chemical constituents. In a modern gasifier, coal is typically…
Coal To Liquid Coal-to-Liquids (CTL) is a process of converting coal to fuels such as diesel or gas. For diesel, the process involves first building a plant to convert coal to gas and then another plant to covert the gas to…
Biden ending new leases in America’s top coal region. In a pair of controversial environmental decisions, the Biden administration is moving to end all new coal leasing in the country’s largest producing coal region, the Powder River Basin of Wyoming…
Converting Coal to Graphene Converting coal to graphene is an intriguing process with potential applications in materials science and technology. Here are a couple of methods: Graphene from Coal via Nitric Acid: Researchers have found a way to create graphene…
Rare Earth Minerals In Coal Rare earth elements (REEs) are a group of 17 chemically similar elements that play a crucial role in various technologies, including electronics, renewable energy, and defense systems. While REEs are typically associated with minerals like…
The Role of Oil & Coal To Fertilizer Coal can indeed be used to produce fertilizers. Here are a couple of ways this happens: Urea Production from Coal: Perdaman Chemicals and Fertilisers is developing a nitrogen fertilizer manufacturing plant in…
Coal Mines For Geo thermal Energy Geothermal energy on abandoned mine lands is an exciting area of exploration. When mines are abandoned, they often fill with water that gets warmed by subsurface heat. This warm water can be harnessed for…
Recovery Of Rare Earth and Critical Material from Coal and Coal By Propducts WASHINGTON, D.C. — As part of President Biden’s Investing in America agenda, the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) today announced over $17 million for three projects that will support…
