United States Environmental Protection Agency Air and Energy Engineering Research Laboratory Research Triangle Park NC 27711 Research and Development EPA/600/S8-87/047 Feb. 1988 Project Summary English-Russian, Russian-English Glossary of Coal Cleaning Terms J. Pekar This English-Russian, Russian-English glossary of coal cleaning terms was compiled as a joint U.S./Soviet effort within the framework of the U.S./ U.S.S.R. Working Group on Stationary Source Air Pollution Control Tech- nology, under the U.S./U.S.S.R. Agree- ment of Cooperation in the Field of Environmental Protection. The need for the glossary developed because of the growing number of language-specific terms that arose during information ex- changes within the Working Group. This Project Summary was developed by EPA's Air and Energy Engineering Research Laboratory, Research Triangle Park, NC, to announce the availability of the glossary (see ordering Information at back). The glossary of coal cleaning terms is organized in two independent, but co- ordinated, sections: Part I is the English- Russian section and Part II is the Russian- English section. Each section has its own pagination and sequential entry number- ing system. In addition, each entry has a number following its other-language equivalent which refers to its entry number in the corresponding section. This makes it possible to cross-check entries in the two sections and obtain the Russian and English equivalents for separate parts of the entry. The entry numbers and separate pagi- nation of each section facilitate future entry addition, deletion, and revision. Abbreviations were kept to a minimum and, where used, are standard, except for the origin of entry (United States — US or CWA, or Soviet Union — SU or CCCP). Definitions were obtained from both countries and the entry origin is marked. Where the headword equivalents carried different concepts in the two languages. two separate glosses are given. In most cases the U.S. and Soviet glosses are equivalent and both entry origins are indicated. In compiling the glossary, Soviet entries were incorporated without exception. The U.S. entries were included only if they were not readily available in existing Russian-English technical dictionaries, or if it was felt that a gloss would aid the translator in a choice of terms. The glossary should enhance the understanding of each country's coal cleaning literature as it applies to en- vironmental protection. ------- J.
