[0066]A detailed study of lignite (high-moisture lignite from North Dakota) was undertaken to assess the relative drying rates of raw material and compacted product. Experiments were conducted on materials spread out on a flat tarpaulin at ambient conditions. Samples of raw lignite and compacted lignite were taken periodically from the spread out material and assayed for total moisture. The measured moisture values were normalized as percent of the total water evaporated to compare the results on an equal basis. Drying conditions were 31° C., and 23% relative humidity. Results are plotted in FIG. 5.
[0067]These results demonstrate the increased drying rates possible by compacting the raw lignite. Table 1 summarizes the ratio of drying rates between raw and compacted lignite processed at ambient conditions of 31° C., 23% relative humidity.

[0068]A detailed study of one LRC (high-moisture lignite from South East Asia) was undertaken to assess the relative drying rates of raw material and compacted product processed by an indirect rotary dryer (180 mm diameter×3000 mm long). The heated portion of the drying tube was 2000 mm long, the cooling zone was 600 mm long, and the feed zone was 400 mm long. Test conditions were identical for the compacted and raw materials. The results are summarized in Table 2.

[0070]An experiment was conducted to measure the relative drying rates of South East Asia lignite held under warm, moist conditions that would be expected in a covered stockpile located in non-condensing, warm, humid tropical climates. Table 3 lists results.

[0071]These test data show that the compacted material lost 50% more moisture than the raw material in 48 hours.
