Hydrothermal dewatering of low-grade coal: Product evaluation and primary component analysis of ash deposition.

The hydrothermal dewatering (HTD) process was carried out using 16 coal samples obtained from several regions in Indonesia. This research aims to identify the dominant parameters that influence ash deposition during coal combustion in a boiler or gasifier due to the HTD process. This research was conducted due to the lack of clear and comprehensive information regarding this issue.
