Ash content in the raw coal would be reduced from 40-45 % to about 34% for consumption of PSEB. Washed coal would be transported by conveyor to railway siding of mine. The washery would operate on a zero discharge concept and all the process water would be clarified through a five-stage treatment system and recycled back into the close circuit of the washery.
