Super-Energy-Saving Dewatering Method for High-Specific-Surface-Area Fuels by Using Dimethyl Ether

There is a growing need for the economical dewatering of high-specific-surface-area fuels containing large amounts of water, such as coal and sewage sludge. The principle underlying conventional dewatering methods is evaporation of the water content by heating the fuels to a high temperature, but th...
