| 20110185631 | Systems and Methods of Pelletizing Heavy Hydrocarbons - Systems and methods for pelletizing a molten heavy hydrocarbon that can be extruded from a drop former to create a plurality of droplets that are subsequently quenched in a cooling media to create asphaltenic pellets. The asphaltenic pellets can be solidified by transferring heat from the droplets to the cooling media to provide the solid asphaltenic pellets. The solid asphaltenic pellets can then be separated from the cooling media which can be recycled for use. | 08-04-2011 |

| 20120291342 | METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING BRIQUETTED SOLID FUEL USING POROUS COAL AS STARTING MATERIAL - Provided is a manufacturing method for a briquetted solid fuel that can reduce the briquetting cost while maintaining the strength of the briquetted product. A mixed oil that includes a heavy oil and a solvent oil, and a porous coal are mixed to obtain a slurry. The slurry is dewatered by heating to obtain a dewatered slurry. Solvent oil is separated from the dewatered slurry to obtain a cake, the cake is heated, and solvent oil is further separated from the cake to obtain a modified coal. Moisture is added to the modified coal to obtain a moist modified coal with a moisture content of 3 wt % to 10 wt %, and then the moist modified coal is briquetted under pressure. | 11-22-2012 |

| 20140338255 | PROCESS FOR OBTAINING ENERGY FROM ORGANIC-CONTAINING WASTE MATERIALS - The invention relates to a process for obtaining energy from organic-containing waste materials ( | 11-20-2014 |
| 20150007493 | METHOD FOR PREPARING COAL FOR COKE MAKING - Method for preparing coal for coke making includes controlling particles size of coal or caking additive before arriving at the plant so particles content having diameter of 6 mm or more in the coal or caking additive reaches 30% by mass or less when the coal or caking additive has permeation distance of 15 mm or more. In another method, the relationship between a critical permeation distance and Gieseler maximum fluidity is obtained using permeation distances and Gieseler maximum fluidity values of one or more brands of coal or caking additive, particles size of coal or caking additive is controlled before arriving at the plant so particles content having diameter of 6 mm or more in coal or caking additive reaches 30% by mass or less when permeation distance of coal or caking additive is larger or equal to a critical permeation distance calculated from the Gieseler maximum fluidity. | 01-08-2015 |
| 044596000 | Pressing | 6 |
| 20110314727 | METHOD FOR PRODUCING SINGLE COAL COMPACTS SUITABLE FOR COKE CHAMBERS - Coal compacts which are suitable for coking in coke oven chambers are prepared by pressing and compacting coal in a pressing device having a design which shapes the surface of the coal compacts to provide higher surface area. Already compacted coal blocks can be pressed to generate the surface shape. The resulting coal compacts exhibit significantly improved properties during the coking process, resulting in improved gas and heat exchange. A device for compacting coal preferably contains a plate provided with shaping elements on the pressing surface. | 12-29-2011 |
| 20120285083 | PROCESS AND APPARATUS FOR PRODUCING GAS HYDRATE PELLET - Provided is a process and an apparatus for producing at low cost gas hydrate pellets having an excellent storability. A gas hydrate generated from a raw-material gas and raw-material water is dewatered and simultaneously molded into pellets with compression-molding means under conditions suitable for generating the gas hydrate while the gas hydrate is generated from the raw-material gas and the raw-material water that exist among particles of the gas hydrate. | 11-15-2012 |
| 20140345193 | METHOD FOR DEACTIVATING COAL - A method for deactivating coal, in which coal is deactivated with a treatment gas containing oxygen, wherein a deactivation step for deactivating the coal in a temperature range 45-70° C. is carried out. | 11-27-2014 |
| 044597000 | With applied heat | 3 |
| 20090025285 | BRIQUETTING PROCESS - A process and system is provided for briquetting particulate matter such as moisture-containing bituminous and sub-bituminous coal. This process includes partially drying the particulate matter and feeding, the partially dried particulate matter to a briquetting apparatus under conditions such that water vapor is released from the particulate matter during feeding. The particulate matter is passed through briquette forming rollers to form briquettes. The released water vapor substantially displaces or prevents the ingress of a large proportion of other gaseous components from the atmosphere surrounding an/or intermixed with the particulate matter. The particulate matter that is fed to the briquetting apparatus is surrounded by and intermixed with a gaseous component containing 70% to 100% by volume of water vapor at the point where it enters the briquette-forming part of the briquetting apparatus, such that when the particulate matter is compressed during briquette formation, the water vapor liquefies and the pressure buildup of gaseous material in the thus-formed briquettes is minimised. This reduction in the pressure buildup of gaseous components also acts to reduce blow-back of gases as the coal fines are being formed into briquettes. | 01-29-2009 |
