1927 – Invention of "The Loesche Mill"
Ernst Curt Loesche developed the first Loesche Mill

4 Processing of low rank coals @ECCRIA
possible solution: briquetting
possible solution: drying
Low-rank coals (LRC)
low-rank coals
high water content
low gross calorific value
low energy density
prone to spontaneous combustion

5 Processing of low rank coals @ECCRIA
Typical LRC drying process – tubular dryer
drying medium: steam
steam data: ≈ 3 – 4 bar (g)
≈ 160 – 180°C
typical in combination with mine-
mouth power plant loss of electrical power due to steam
extraction in the steam turbine

6 Processing of low rank coals @ECCRIA
LOESCHE´s Coal Enhancement Process for LRC
major features of the patented Coal Enhancement Process:
simultaneous grinding, drying and classifying of low-rank coals
high drying capacity
adjustment of the required particle size distribution of pulverized LRC for
downstream process
self-inert process
hot gas with oxygen content below limiting oxygen concentration of the
LRC
partial separation of produced coal fines in a stand-alone separator for fuel
production of hot gas generator
no additional external heat source like steam required
ATEX compliant with approved fire and explosion protection concept by
notified body
