Resumen

En este estudio se evalúa la influencia del tamaño de partícula, el tipo de carbón, el tiempo de operación y la
energía microondas suministrada como variables influyentes en el proceso de secado del carbón mineral. Posteriormente,
se compara el secado con microondas con el secado térmico del carbón en estufa convencional. Los
resultados evidencian que con el secado en horno microonda se remueve hasta el 50% de la humedad contenida
en el carbón en el 10% del tiempo requerido por la técnica convencional. Se encontró que el proceso microondas
no afecta las propiedades de Índice de Hard Grove, poder calorífico y contenido de ceniza del carbón bajo las
condiciones empleadas en esta investigación.
