Deashing and desulfurization of subbituminous coal from the East field (Bogovina Basin, Serbia) - insights from chemical leaching

The study is focused on the determination of the most effective chemical leaching process for the simultaneous demineralization/deashing and desulfurization of subbituminous coal from the Bogovina Basin. Coal was treated for 30 min, at different temperatures, using variable concentrations of hydroch...
