Nuclear techniques for coal quality assessment in the United Kingdom coal industry
Description
Analytical requirements for coal quality assessment are outlined with specific reference to the United Kingdom coal industry, giving due consideration to the accuracy of measurement and speed of response required to meet planning, commercial and operational needs. A review is made of current applications of nuclear techniques which shows that measurement of ash content is predominant. Developments at present in progress in the National Coal Board are mainly in the field of ash content measurement for operational purposes. Comment is made on the direction of future work which may be required to meet potential changes in operations or markets. (author)
