Experimental and numerical studies of the packing and piling of coal

该项目面向煤炭和钢铁行业，这对澳大利亚很重要。事实上，煤炭行业创造了大量就业机会，并生产了澳大利亚80%的电力。澳大利亚也是世界上最大的煤炭出口国。该项目将开发控制煤的包装和堆积过程的方法，这对许多颗粒工艺至关重要。该项目的好处包括提高生产率、焦炭质量和燃料效率，从而降低能源消耗和污染排放，从而提高澳大利亚煤炭和钢铁行业的竞争力。

This project is oriented to the coal and steel industries, which are important to Australia. In fact, the coal industry creates a significant employment and produces 80% of electricity in Australia. Australia is also the world's biggest coal exporter. This project will develop methods to control the packing and piling processes of coal, which are of fundamental importance to many granular processes. The benefits from the project include improvements in productivity, coke quality and fuel efficiency, which will lead reduced energy consumption and pollution emission and thereby improve the competitiveness of Australia's coal and steel industries.
