Last year, Coal Prep celebrated its 30" anniversary. While it's difficult to keep an event with such a rich history fresh, the organizers strive each year to pull together a well-rounded educational program and 2014 is no exception. Working with the Coal Prep Society of America (CPSA), Penton has developed a technical program that spans much of the coal processing business. In addition to the technical program, Coal Prep also has one of the best annual expositions in the coal business. Penton expects about 280 companies to showcase coal processing equipment and services. While that total number is about the same as last year, a little more than 10% of the companies will be new to Coal Prep this year. The numbers of international companies exhibiting at Coal Prep also continues to grow, with vendors from Australia, China, Germany, India, Israel, South Africa and the U.K. Last year, international attendance increased 17%, according to Penton, and that has had a positive impact for this year.
