Effect of CaO mineral change on coal ash melting characteristics

The change of mineral composition in ash and the effect of CaO on the melting characteristics of coal ash were studied by adding different contents of CaO to coal ash. At the same time, the Factsage thermodynamics software was used to simulate the mineral changes in the synthetic ash to support and verify the experimental results. The results show that with the increase of CaO content, the melting characteristic temperature of coal ash first decreases and then rises. After adding a certain amount of CaO, the quartz with higher melting point completely disappears, and the melting point of the coal ash reaches a minimum value. And with the increase of CaO content, the appearance of wollastonite and single crystal calcium oxide mineral makes the melting point of coal ash gradually increase. It can be seen from the phase diagram calculated by Factsage that as the CaO content increases, the corresponding position of the coal ash gradually moves from the hematite region to the calcareous region. And the phenomenon of low temperature eutectic occurs when the CaO content is 35%, which is consistent with the trend of temperature change of the melting characteristics. These phenomena all indicate that the change in the melting point of coal ash is nonlinear as the content of CaO minerals increases.

Role of the activation process on catalytic properties of iron supported catalyst in Fischer-Tropsch synthesis

Monometallic Fe and bimetallic Ru–Fe supported catalysts were prepared by impregnation method and tested in Fischer-Tropsch synthesis (F-T). Their physicochemical properties were characterized by BET, SEM-EDS, FTIR, XRD, H₂-TPR, TPD-NH₃ techniques. The catalytic activity tests showed that the activation process has a huge impact on the reactivity properties in the studied process. The most active system in F-T reaction was 40%Fe/Al₂O₃–Cr₂O₃ catalyst which exhibited CO conversion equal 89.9% and the selectivity towards liquid product of 66.6%. The liquid products obtained in F-T process on 40%Fe/Al₂O₃–Cr₂O₃ consisted mainly of linear (76.8%), branched (17.7%) and unsaturated (5.5%) hydrocarbons. The chain growth probability in F-T process was estimated using an Anderson-Schulz–Flory distribution of obtained liquid product for all tested catalysts. The calculated α value for the most active catalyst was 0.76. The activity results indicate that iron carbides formed during activation process affects on the catalytic activity and selectivity of the iron catalyst during F-T synthesis. The activity measurements showed that the activity of the iron supported catalysts depends strongly on the catalyst phase composition and their acidic properties. XRD results confirmed that the most active catalyst in the investigated process exhibited the highest concentration of iron carbides phases on its surface.     

Thermodynamic analysis of ethanol synthesis from hydration of ethylene coupled with a sequential reaction

Coal-based ethanol production by hydration of ethylene is limited by the low equilibrium ethylene conversion at elevated temperature. To improve ethylene conversion, coupling hydration of ethylene with a potential ethanol consumption reaction was analyzed thermodynamically. Five reactions have been attempted and compared: (1) dehydration of ethanol to ethyl ether ({\mathrm{2C}}_{\mathrm{2}}{\mathrm{H}}_{\mathrm{5}}\mathrm{OH}\iff{\mathrm{C}}_{\mathrm{2}}{\mathrm{H}}_{\mathrm{5}}{\mathrm{OC}}_{\mathrm{2}}{\mathrm{H}}_{\mathrm{5}}{\mathrm{+H}}_{\mathrm{2}}\mathrm{O}), (2) dehydrogenation of ethanol to acetaldehyde ({\mathrm{C}}_{\mathrm{2}}{\mathrm{H}}_{\mathrm{5}}\mathrm{OH}\iff {\mathrm{CH}}_{\mathrm{3}}{\mathrm{CHO+H}}_{\mathrm{2}}), (3) esterification of acetic acid with ethanol ({\mathrm{C}}_{\mathrm{2}}{\mathrm{H}}_{\mathrm{5}}{\mathrm{OH+CH}}_{\mathrm{3}}\mathrm{COOH}\iff {\mathrm{CH}}_{\mathrm{3}}{\mathrm{COOC}}_{\mathrm{2}}{\mathrm{H}}_{\mathrm{5}}{\mathrm{+H}}_{\mathrm{2}}\mathrm{O}), (4) dehydrogenation of ethanol to ethyl acetate ({\mathrm{2C}}_{\mathrm{2}}{\mathrm{H}}_{\mathrm{5}}\mathrm{OH}\iff {\mathrm{CH}}_{\mathrm{3}}{\mathrm{COOC}}_{\mathrm{2}}{\mathrm{H}}_{\mathrm{5}}{\mathrm{+2H}}_{\mathrm{2}}), and (5) oxidative dehydrogenation of ethanol to ethyl acetate ({\mathrm{2C}}_{\mathrm{2}}{\mathrm{H}}_{\mathrm{5}}{\mathrm{OH+O}}_{\mathrm{2}}\iff {\mathrm{CH}}_{\mathrm{3}}{\mathrm{COOC}}_{\mathrm{2}}{\mathrm{H}}_{\mathrm{5}}{\mathrm{+2H}}_{\mathrm{2}}\mathrm{O}). The equilibrium constants and equilibrium distributions of the coupled reactions were calculated and the effects of feed composition, temperature and pressure upon the ethylene equilibrium conversion were examined. The results show that dehydrogenation of ethanol to acetaldehyde has little effect on ethylene conversion, whereas for dehydrogenation of ethanol to acetaldehyde and ethyl acetate, ethylene conversion can be improved from 8% to 12.8% and 18.5%, respectively, under conditions of H₂O/C₂H₄ = 2, 10 atm and 300°C. The esterification of acetic acid with ethanol can greatly enhance the ethylene conversion to 22.5%; in particular, ethylene can be actually completely converted to ethyl acetate by coupling oxidative dehydrogenation of ethanol.     

Influences of sodium species with different occurrence modes on the thermal behaviors and gas evolution during pyrolysis of a sodium-rich Zhundong subbituminous coal

The Zhundong coal (ZDC) with a huge proven reserve is featured by high abundance of sodium species which behaves actively in the thermal conversion of it. In this work, to better understand the multiple roles of sodium species in coal pyrolysis, influences of sodium species with different occurrence modes on the thermal behaviors and gas evolution during pyrolysis of a sodium-rich ZDC were investigated. Raw coal was initially demineralized by dilute hydrochloric acid. Subsequently, sodium species was reloaded into the demineralized sample by ion-exchanged or immersed method. For quantitative analyses, a thermo-gravimetric analyzer coupled with a mass spectrometer was used to record the weight loss of different samples and the ever-changing amount of gaseous products in pyrolysis. The results show that the structural change induced by demineralized and ion-exchanged treatment is mainly reflected in the band intensity of carboxyl groups. In pyrolysis of ZDC, total volatile matters yield has a close relation with the occurrence modes of sodium species. It is proved that water-soluble sodium species has catalytic effects on the thermal-cracking reactions, whereas exchangeable sodium species tends to facilitate char-formed reactions. Compared with exchangeable ones, water-soluble sodium species can be also volatilized more easily in pyrolysis. As for gas evolution, exchangeable sodium species can obviously affect formation of CO through char gasification and it is also favorable to formation of hydrogen radicals. Moreover, due to the low sulfur content in ZDC, the intensity of H₂S released from all samples is extremely weak, which suggests that ZDC is a suitable feedstock for clean coal utilization.     

Synergistic effect for co-coking of sawdust and coal blending based on the chemical structure transformation

Biomass was used as additives in coal blending for making coke in terms of widening the alternative raw materials and reducing CO₂ emissions. To obtain the influences of biomass incorporation on the semicoke formation, the chemical structure transformation as well as the gas evolution during sawdust (SD)/coal blending (BC) co-coking were investigated using in-situ Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy coupled with mass spectrometry (In-situ FTIR-MS). Meanwhile, the role of biomass in the semicoke formation was also characterized by several analytical techniques. The transformation of the five main functional groups between SD and BC exhibited the largest difference, and the synergistic effect based on the chemical structure transformation was also proposed for the SD/BC blends co-coking. The synergistic effect based on the chemical structure transformation was divided into two stages during semicoke formation. One stage occurred at 100–280 °C that was assigned to the physical effect that inhibited the BC decomposition. Another stage happened at 280–500 °C that was mainly attributed to the hydrogen transfer that enhanced the aromatization of semi-coke. In addition, it was also noted that the thermoplastic properties decreased proportionately to the quantity of the SD, and the non-agglomeration between BC and SD was clearly observed by SEM.     

A novel utilized method of tar derived from biomass gasification for fabricating binder-free all-solid-state hybrid supercapacitors

As an industrial pollutant, tar derived from biomass gasification is used as the precursor for fabricating a novel carbon-metal hydroxides composite electrode. A slurry (the mixture of tar, KOH and melamine) is daubed uniformly onto the nickel foam, which is directly carbonized to form NPC@LDH electrode material. This electrode is further coated with NiCo-LDH nanosheets using an electrodeposition method to form NF@NPC@LDH. The newly made NF@NPC@LDH electrode exhibits a high specific capacity of 9.6 F cm⁻² at a current density of 2 mA cm⁻² and good rate performance (55.3% retention). Furthermore, a hybrid NF@NPC@LDH//NF@PC all-solid-state supercapacitor is fabricated, and the device exhibits high energy density of 1.28 mWh cm⁻³ at a power density of 8.04 mW cm⁻³, low resistance and good cycling stability.
