Abstract
Publisher Summary This chapter discusses the feasibility of using vegetable oils for coal agglomeration. This objective complies with the European Union policy to the use of vegetable oils for purposes others than food. The chapter describes three high-ash Spanish anthracites that are cleaned by agglomeration with refined sunflower and soyabean oils, which may be considered as light compounds. They are less expensive than hydrocarbons. The response of these coals to agglomeration with these vegetable oils, over a wide oil concentration, is evaluated by measuring the percentages of organic matter recovery and ash rejection. These results are compared with those previously obtained in the agglomeration with n-heptane
