Fundamentals of the Physical-Chemistry of Pulverized Coal Combustion /

Fundamentals of the Physical-Chemistry of Pulverized Coal Combustion / edited by J. Lahaye, G. Prado.

The study of coal for the production of energy is certainly not a new area of research. Many research works were carried out to improve the efficiency of industrial and domestic facilities. In the sixties, however, because of the availability and low cost of petroleum, coal consumption decreased and...
