Chemical Stabilization of Fine Coal Waste: Elimination of Slurry Impoundments

The funding will be used by the Center for Advanced Separation Technologies - KY (CAST-KY) to develop advanced technologies that can be used to exploit domestic energy resources and help developing countries reduce their C02 emissions. In addition, new gas-gas separations technologies to be developed at CAST will have crosscutting applications for a wide spectrum of the Fossil Energy R&D programs The objective will be met by conducting both fundamental and applid research at the Center for Advanced Separation Technologies (CAST), which is a consortium of five universities. The university members include: University of Kentucky Virginia Tech, West Virginia University, Montana Tech of University of Montana and University of Utah
