Coal Water Slurry + Diesel Engines

(OP)
Does anyone have more information about using a coal water slurry in low-speed diesel engines?  Also, are there any commercial producers of CWS in America?  Thank you for your time.

You do know that you have posted this in "Petroleum engineering and other topics", right.  That probably wasn't the best choice.

I wasn't aware of the history, but I didn't suspect it would be much more than what you've mentioned, if they had any history at all.
