A review of chemical demineralization and desulphurization of high ash & high sulphur lignite coal

Globally, large reserves of low grade or lignite coal are available. Low-ranking coal contains high mineral content, moisture content, and low calorific value. The major problem in coal is sulphur and ash When used for combustion, this type of coal imposes harmful impacts on the environment. It resu...
