| dc.description.abstract | The present study focused on the mineral characterization of Kindo-Didaye coal by adiabatic Calorie Metter, Gravimetric, hard groove index and proximate techniques. The result showed that coal quality ranged between (2475.79-10931.96Btu/lb); Sulphur (<0.02 % to 2.93%), moisture (1.21 to 1.99 %), volatile matter (15.45 to 26.37%), ash content (28.19 to 71.26%) and fixed carbon (11.21 to 44.23%). The majority of the Coal samples fall within lignite “B”, subbituminous “B” and sub-bituminous “C” ranks and none agglomerating. The grindablity index of the majority of the coal samples has the range (56.2-66), which HGI values of the Shela area coal samples indicate that most of the samples can be characterized as lignite and are also extremely challenging to grind. | |
