Author:Viljoen, GA; Kuhn, AH; Erasmus, TCDate:1974A sample of coal submitted by the Somerset Mining Company was treated in the Institute's coal preparation pilot plant as Pretoria West. The major portion of the relative density float product prepared in the Drewboy washer, was subsequently ...Read more
Author:Moodie, BDate:1974A survey of the Maceral composition of the products prepared by the collieries in the Republic was initiated a number of years ago. The first report (Report No. 10 of 1974) dealt with the Maceral composition of the products prepared by the ...Read more
Author:Mullier, EFEDate:1974This report gives a reflection of the carbonization of coal and the production of metallurgical coke, gas coke, char, gas, and by-products in South Africa during the period 1915 to 1972. Data prior to 1954 is relatively incomplete, but from ...Read more
Author:Von Wolff, WTE; Kessler, IIMDate:1966This report discusses the measurement of the magnetic properties of magnetic according to the Twin Isthmus method.Read more
Author:Saler, ADate:1972The investigation was undertaken as a preliminary study of the 4" Compound Water Cyclone, with regard to its separation efficiency, range of yields obtained and throughput capacity. The main purpose behind this work was to gain some experience ...Read more
Author:Erasmus, TCDate:1972The present study is confined to investigation of the ignition phase of the combustion process and deductions must be seen in that light.Read more
Author:Erasmus, TCDate:1973This report discusses an investigation conducted by the Fuel Research Institute to construct a small-scale version of the delayed-coking apparatus, and study the fundamentals involved and the essential features that characterize the delayed-coking ...Read more
Author:Bonapace, ACDate:1973This paper discusses the potential function, critical conditions governing the phenomena of particle deposition, saltation, and the formation of dunes.Read more
Author:Vogel, JCDate:1938The high capital cost of coal hydrogenation plant makes it essential that oil output be maintained at high level as possible as this factor must primarily govern the choice of the coal to be used or the decision as to whether as coal is ...Read more
Author:Raab, GADate:1974A knowledge of size distribution of the coal produced is of obvious interest to the coal industry and suppliers of mining and coal preparation equipment.Read more
