  • Abstract
    The history of coal handling in power plants, the changes in design requirements, and the future of bulk handling equipment for the utility industry are reviewed. Examples of coal handling systems are presented that point towards the changing, design criteria required by the ever increasing size of today´s power plants. The concluding section is devoted to the evaluation of the systems and equipment available to the power industry for the transporting and storage of coal.
