DHS Briquetting Process
GreenFields produces the only economically and ecologically viable coal fines briquettes that retain the same petrographic properties as, and is otherwise comparable to, the deep mine coal from which the coal fines originate.
In addition, the GreenFields briquetting process produces a solid, weather and handling resistant briquette with a substantially lower moisture content, with lower ash and higher BTU properties than any other commercially available product.
Unlike unproven, costly, coal-based fuel cell technology, or the prohibitive cost to construct coal gasification plants, GreenFields’ briquetting process is relatively inexpensive and easily scalable for large and small-sized production operations.
The Definition of Cutting Edge
GreenFields engineers have developed a new patent-pending technology to bind and briquette coal fines, enabling us and our partners to recover hundreds of millions of tons of otherwise discarded coal processing waste product, and convert it into high quality, cleaner burning coal - all without digging a single coal mine, without endangering a single miner. In so doing, we are reducing America’s dependence on foreign oil and converting thousands of acres of waste land in cities and towns all over the world into useable, clean green fields.
Key Highlights
- GreenFields coal briquettes are produced by converting high moisture, small particle coal refuse material into an easily transportable, weather resistant and ecologically cleaner coal product
- The GreenFields technology can be deployed along side run of mine coal operations
- The GreenFields facilities and processes offer a safer work environment as underground mining is not involved
- GreenFields facilities and processes meet all applicable state and federal requirements
- The GreenFields technology restores unusable, uninhabitable coal refuse wasteland to clean, green fields
- The GreenFields technology is effective on all types of waste coal (Appalachia, Powder River Basin, Illinois Basin as well as coal from various regions around the world)
- GreenFields briquettes provide an economically and ecologically “greener” alternative to deep mine coal
- GreenFields’ briquettes maintain their integrity and inherent energy properties through processing, transport, weather, crushing and combustion so there is no need to alter coal burning operations
- Greenfields Coal Company was formed as a clean coal technology company by partners with years of experience in the coal and alternative energy industries
- GreenFields has taken a leadership role in the introduction of “green” technology to the coal services industry
