1 | A brief history of early mineral exploitation in the Uinta Basin | 1964 | Uinta Basin; Mining; Uintah Valley; Indian Reservation; Meeker; Utah; History of early mineral exploitation; Uintah Reservation; Gilsonite; Coal; Copper; Iron; Oil shale; Ozocerite; Wurtzilite; Oil; Asphalt; Ashley Creek; Hatchtown; Vernal; Fort Duchesne; Ouray Subagency | Early mining activities in the Uinta Basin can be summarized by saying that they included mining for gilsonite, coal, copper, iron, oil shale, ozocerite, wurtzilite, and oil and asphalt (under the placer mining laws). Of these minerals only coal and gilsonite were produced in commercially significan... | |
2 | Apparatus for separating organic material from particulate tar sands and coal and agglomeration of the particulate residue | 1976-10-05 | Patent; Tar sands; Coal; Agglomeration of particle residue; Agglomerating liquid; Immiscible; Varsol; Ball agglomerates | A rotatable drum having an interior which tapers in a horizontal direction has a first port at the smaller end for receiving particulate Tar Sands or coal, and an agglomerating liquid, e.g. water, and a second port at the larger end for receiving an organic material separating liquid, e.g. Varsol, w... | |
3 | CFD modeling for entrained flow gasifiers | 2002-10-28 | CFD modeling; Entrained flow gasifiers; Reaction kinetics; Coal gasification; Integrated Gasification Combined Cycle power plants; IGCC; Computational Fluid Dynamics; Coal; Gasifier; GLACIER | In this paper we have described a CFD based modeling tool for entrained flow coal gasifiers. The model contains sub-models to properly model the reaction kinetics of coal gasification at high pressure, high solids loading and slagging walls. Comparisons between values predicted by our CFD model and ... | |
