The devolatilization behaviour of ten bituminous coals was investigated under rapid heating conditions using a small-scale fluidized-bed pyrolyser. The pyrolyser operated continuously, coal particles being injected at a rate of 1–3 g h?1 directly into a heated bed of sand fluidized by nitrogen. Yields of tar, C1–C3 hydrocarbon gases, and total volatile-matter and an agglomeration index are reported for all coals. Maximum tar yields were obtained at about 600 °C and were always substantially higher than those from the Gray-King assay. Total volatile-matter yields were also substantially higher than the proximate analysis values. The maximum tar yields appear to be directly proportional to the coal atomic ratio. The elemental analysis of the tar is strongly dependent on pyrolysis temperature. The tar atomic ratio is proportional to that of the parent coal. The effect on the devolatilization behaviour of two coals produced by changes in the pyrolyser atmosphere and the nature of the fluidized-bed material were also investigated. Substituting an atmosphere of hydrogen, helium, carbon dioxide or steam for nitrogen, has no effect on tar yield and, with one exception, little effect on the hydrocarbon gas yields. In the presence of hydrogen the yield of methane was increased at temperatures above 600 °C. Tar yields were significantly reduced on substituting petroleum coke for sand as the fluid-bed material. A fluidized bed of active char virtually eliminated the tar yield. 相似文献

The performances of 1 g h?1 and 20 kg h?1 flash pyrolysers are compared for three Australian coals: Loy Yang brown coal (Victoria), Liddell bituminous coal (New South Wales), and Millmerran sub-bituminous coal (Queensland). The two reactors gave comparable yields of tar, char and C1–C3 hydrocarbon gases over a range of operating conditions for each particular coal. The yield of total volatile matter from Millmerran coal was similar from both reactors, as were the compositions of chars from Loy Yang coal and tars from the Liddell and Millmerran coals. For Millmerran coal, the yields of tar, C1–C3 gases and volatiles from the large reactor below 650 °C, were slightly lower than for the small reactor, possibly owing to a shorter retention time of Millmerran coal particles in the large-scale reactor. At a temperature near 600 °C tar yields were independent of tar concentration in the effluent gas, over a range 0.0025–0.1 kg m?3 for Liddell coal, 0.005–0.26 kg m?3 for Millmerran coal and 0.0045–0.09 kg m?3 for Loy Yang coal. The tar yields from Millmerran and Liddell coals at 600 °C in the large reactor, correlate directly with the atomic ratio of the parent coal, in the same manner as that found for a wider range of bituminous coals in the small-scale reactor. 相似文献

Flash pyrolysis of Loy Yang brown coal, and Liddell and Millmerran bituminous coals has been studied using a fluidized-bed reactor with a nominal throughput of 20 kg h?1. The apparatus and its performance are described. The yields of tar and hydrocarbon gases are reported for each coal in relation to pyrolysis temperature, as also are analytical data on the pyrolysis products. The peak tar yields for the dry, ash-free Loy Yang and Millmerran coals were respectively 23% wt/wt (at ≈ 580 °C) and 35% wt/wt (at 600 °C). The tar yield from Liddell coal was 31% wt/wt at ≈ 580 °C. Hydro-carbon gases were produced in notable quantities during flash pyrolysis; e.g. Millmerran coal at 810 °C gave 6% wt/wt (daf) methane, 0.9% wt/wt ethane, 6% wt/wt ethylene, and 2.5% wt/wt propylene. The atomic ratios and the absolute levels of hydrogen in product tars and chars decreased steadily with increasing pyrolysis temperature. 相似文献

The devolatilization behaviour of finely-ground (< 0.2 mm) Loy Yang brown coal was investigated under rapid heating conditions using a small-scale fluidized-bed pyrolyser. The pyrolyser operated continuously, coal being fed at rates of 1–3 g/h directly into a bed of sand fluidized by nitrogen. Particle heating rates probably exceeded 104 °C/s. The yields of tar, C1-C3 hydrocarbons and total volatile matter are reported for a pyrolyser-temperature range of 435 to 900 °C. A maximum tar yield of 23% w/w (dry ash-free coal), 60% more than the Fischer assay, was obtained at 580 °C. Yields of C1-C3 hydrocarbons increased with increasing temperature, reaching 8% at 900 °C. Elemental analyses showed that the composition of the tar and char products was strongly dependent on pyrolysis temperature. The effects on the devolatilization behaviour of the coal produced by the moisture associated with the coal, by hydrogen, and by the replacement of the sand by a fluidized bed of petroleum coke were investigated. 相似文献

Good agreement has been obtained between measured proximate analysis values for fixed carbon (FC) and the predictions of a thermal decomposition model. The model provides a basis for understanding the relation between FC and coal structure and between FC measured under proximate analysis conditions and coke or char measured in other thermal decomposition experiments. The key parameters in the model are the aromatic carbon concentration (Car) and the tar yield. Car has been determined for 43 coals using quantitative infrared analysis. The aliphatic hydrogen concentration is measured from the absorption near 2900 cm?1 and the aliphatic carbon concentration is computed assuming a stoichiometry of CH1.8 Car is then computed by difference. The results verify the good correlation between Car and FC discussed by van Krevelen. To explain this correlation, use has been made of a coal thermal decomposition model which has been successful in simulating the quantity and composition of volatile components yielded under vacuum pyrolysis conditions. To apply the model to proximate analysis, it was necessary to estimate the tar yields obtained with thick beds and the amounts of O, N, H, and S which remain with the FC. The tar yields for proximate analysis conditions have been estimated to be to the yields for thin beds in vacuum. To determine the composition of the FC, measurements were made on a lignite and a bituminous char produced in a thin bed heated by a wire grid for the time (7 min) and temperature (950 °C) used in the proximate analysis, and on the FC residues from a proximate analysis volatile matter determination. Both residues give similar results, showing that approximately 10% of the ‘fixed carbon’ is not carbon. Values of FC computed with the model adjusted for the above conditions are in good agreement with the measured values. 相似文献

Inorganic complexes were added to low-rank coals by step-wise pH adjustment of a mixture of inorganic solution and brown coal while avoiding the formation of precipitates. The nature and amounts of the added inorganic depend on the pH of the coal/solution mixture and concentration of inorganic salts. The amount of hydroxide added for high loading of iron to coal is consistent with added multinuclear complexes. Computer generated models of brown coal with multi-iron species account for observed OH/Fe ratios. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) data for these samples are consistent with multi-iron species in coal. Computer molecular modelling of two brown coal models with added inorganics shows monodentate carboxyl coordination to metals is sterically favoured. Mononuclear Fe(III) with bidentate carboxyl coordination form distorted structures and are energetically unfavoured. Modelling indicates significant reductions in partial charges on metal centres, consistent with a redistribution of electron density on complexation. Low temperature pyrolysis of brown coals with added inorganics provides increased yields of gases, no detectable tar and lower char, compared with acid washed coals. Gasification of these coals using a nitrogen/oxygen mix at 150–200 °C yields CO, while steam gasification at 250–450 °C yields CO2, CO and CH4. Iron oxide/carbonate complexes are postulated during the pyrolysis and gasification. 相似文献

Asphaltenes derived from tar from the flash pyrolysis of Millmerran coal have been separated into acid, base, polyfunctional and neutral fractions by ion-exchange chromatography. Each fraction was studied by high-pressure catalytic hydrogenolysis followed by g.c.-m.s. analysis of the volatile products. The high content of n-alkanes from C9 to C32 in the organic products highlights the unusual maceral composition of Millmerran coal and its high ratio. The results show that most of the asphaltenes are made up of small 1 — or 2-ring aromatic units probably linked by methylene chains bonded through intermediate functional groups. In some cases, the asphaltene structures appear to be ‘simpler’ than the corresponding coal-tar resin structures in the maltenes. Because no amphoteric molecules were detected these results support the concept of an acid-base structure for coal-derived asphaltenes. 相似文献

A study has been made of the evolution of water, carbon dioxide and carbon monoxide during the pyrolysis of Australian Yallourn brown coal, and of the way in which the evolution is influenced by exchange of the carboxyl groups in the coal with magnesium and barium cations. Virtually all the oxygen in the coal can be removed as carbon dioxide, water and carbon monoxide with the greatest rate of loss occurring at 300, 350 and 500 to 600 °C respectively. Increasing levels of cation alter the proportion of the volatile constituents but not the total amount of volatile matter evolved. Increased evolution of oxygen as carbon dioxide from a magnesium-form coal over that from acid-form coal is accompanied by a decrease in the amount evolved as water and carbon monoxide. Barium-form coals, however, show an increase in the amount of carbon monoxide evolved as the cation content increases. This is due in part to reactions involving the nitrogen gas used to provide a non-oxidizing atmosphere during pyrolysis. These reactions do not occur with magnesium-form coals. The amount of char formed by pyrolysis is the same for different levels of cation exchanged on the carboxyl groups. The results support conclusions that the carboxyl groups in a brown coal are associated with other oxygen groups, and that the mode of decomposition of the groups in this association (including carboxyl) is altered by the exchange of the carboxyl groups with cation. 相似文献

The formation of NOx during the combustion of pulverized brown and subbituminous coals from Victoria and Queensland respectively was investigated in an entrainment reactor. As no NO2 was detected, all the NOx was present in the form of NO. The brown coals exhibited a significantly greater potential for NO emission under fuel-lean conditions than did the subbituminous coal, even though the latter coal had a higher nitrogen content. However, under fuel-rich conditions the conversion of coal nitrogen to NO for the subbituminous coal was higher than for the brown coals. The differences in conversion efficiency may have been related in part to the nature and reactivity of the volatile nitrogen species. Reactivity differences between the chars produced from the brown and subbituminous coals may also have accounted for different extents of removal of NO. There was a significant reduction in the amount of NO emitted when brown coal was added to a combustion gas stream containing an appreciable quantity of NO before coal injection. 相似文献

Pyrolysis of 11 coals with carbon contents of 77–93 wt.% (daf) and corresponding demineralized samples has been studied in a fixed bed quartz reactor with a heating rate of 20 K/min to examine rank, demineralization, temperature and inherent mineral species dependences of nitrogen distribution. Nitrogen mass balances fall within 92.5–104.6%. The results indicate that the chars derived from the coals with higher rank show larger nitrogen retention. Demineralization suppresses volatile nitrogen emission during coal pyrolysis, especially for low rank coals. Coal-N conversion to tar-N reaches the asymptotic values at 600 °C. HCN yields are lower than NH3 yields during coal pyrolysis. The trends in HCN and NH3 emissions are very similar and the yields reach the asymptotic value at about 1200 °C. N2 starts emitting at 600 °C, and as the temperature increases the conversion increases linearly with a corresponding reverse change of char-N. With the catalysts added, N2 formation is prompted with the sequence of Fe>Ca>K>Ti≫Na≫Si≈Al, meanwhile, char-N decreases correspondingly. Fe, Ca, K, Na, Si and Al increase coal-N conversion to NH3 with the sequence of Fe>Ca>K≈Na≫Si≈Al in the pyrolysis. Na addition prompts HCN formation; however, the presence of Ti and Ca decrease the HCN yields with small value. The other catalysts have no notable influence on HCN emission in the pyrolysis. Demineralization and Ti addition increase coal-N conversion to tar-N slightly whereas K, Ca, Mg, Na, Si and Al additions decrease tar-N yield weakly, other catalysts hardly influence tar nitrogen emission. N2 emits mainly from char-N with slight contribution of volatile nitrogen. The mechanism of different N-containing species formation and catalysts influence in the pyrolysis is also discussed in the paper. 相似文献

This study used micro-Raman spectroscopy, gas chromatography–mass spectrometry (GC–MS), and gas chromatography–flame ionization detector/thermal conductivity detector (GC–FID/TCD) to analyze the structure and pyrolysis reactions of nine typical coals and chars from Xinjiang. The study fitted 10 Gaussian bands of typical Xinjiang coal and investigated the changes in coal structure during coalification and pyrolysis. The results indicated that the reduction degree of CO structures in coal during coalification had a rough linear relationship with the Vdaf (dry ash-free volatile matter) content. During coalification, the condensation of aromatic rings is accompanied by a continuous decrease of CO structures, while the contents of cross-linking and substitution structures decrease persistently relative to the large aromatic ring structures. The influence of coal type on char yield for typical Xinjiang coal is within 15 wt.%; the influence on tar yield is within 8.5%, with a greater impact on the yield of alkanes and phenols in tar; the influence on CO yield in pyrolysis gas is within 6.3%. The relative content of large aromatic ring structures in coal is relatively stable during pyrolysis, while the relative content of small aromatic ring structures declines as coal transforms into char. The study inferred that small aromatic rings might decompose and transform into tar after pyrolysis reaction, which also resulted in a high selectivity of phenolic products in tar from most coal pyrolysis above 40%. This study revealed the structural changes and pyrolysis product distribution of nine typical coals and chars from Xinjiang, providing useful information for their utilization. 相似文献

The objectives of this investigation were to determine the effects of coal preparation on the properties of Run-of-Mine (ROM) and washed Powhatan and Ireland Mine coals and to assess the potential effects on SRC-II liquefaction yields. The effect of washing on the two coals was found to be quite similar. For both coals, the properties were altered more significantly by changes in separation media gravity than by changes in the coal size. The elemental composition of the Powhatan and Ireland washed coals was correlated with carbon content. It was shown that both the hydrogen and oxygen levels increased linearly with the carbon content of the coal samples. However, the and ratios were not changed significantly by coal cleaning. Only small variations in the nitrogen and organic sulphur levels were observed while the sulphate sulphur and chlorine levels were not affected by coal cleaning. The major impact of the coal cleaning was to reduce the pyritic sulphur (and hence the total sulphur) content of the coals. Most of the pyritic sulphur was shifted into the middling coal and refuse fractions while the clean coals had much lower contents and the pyritic sulphur level decreased with increasing carbon content. Coal cleaning did not significantly alter the maceral contents of vitrinite, exinite, total reactive macerals (TRM), or the reflectance of vitrinite; all these parameters varied over a very narrow range, probably within the precision of the measurement technique. 相似文献

The short contact time (SCT) liquefaction of Belle Ayr subbituminous coal has been compared with that of Illinois No. 6 and Pittsburgh seam bituminous coals. Each bituminous coal was highly solubilized (90 wt%, daf coal) in 3–4 min at 450 °C and 13–16 MPa hydrogen pressure. More than 80 wt% of each coal was converted to solvent-refined coal (SRC, pyridine-soluble residuum), with only small quantities of distillate oil and C1–C4 gas being formed. A longer reaction (up to 30 min) gave only a small increase in total conversion, but gas and distillate yields increased significantly. Iron sulphides did not appear to catalyse coal solubilization. By contrast, only 65 wt% of the Belle Ayr coal dissolved rapidly in SCT liquefaction and pyrite addition catalysed the conversion of the remaining insoluble organic matter (IOM). With an equivalent amount of pyrite present the Belle Ayr coal also gave more C1–C4 gas and substantially more distillate in SCT liquefaction than the bituminous coals. These differences in product distributions obtained from bituminous and subbituminous coals in SCT liquefaction can be rationalized on the basis of differences in the structures of the starting coals. However, the origin of high IOM yields with the Belle Ayr coal remains unclear. 相似文献

A 25 mm diameter bench scale pyrolyser unit was constructed to study atmospheric pressure rapid pyrolysis of coal. Coals with particle size below 250 microns were injected continuously into a bed of sand spouted with nitrogen. Gas, liquid and char yields were determined as functions of temperature, coal feed rate and particle size. Gas compositions, tar yield and solvent fractionation results, and char proximate analyses are presented for six coals as functions of the pyrolysis temperature. Pyrolysis liquids from low rank coals contained significant amounts of water and were high in hexane solubles. Hexane and benzene soluble fractions are dependent on coal type and pyrolysis conditions. 相似文献

The amount of oil that can be generated from a kerogen under natural conditions is an important parameter in source rock assessment. Similarly, the quantity of oil able to be formed from a coal or kerogen during much more rapid pyrolysis is a crucial factor in oil shale and coal conversion studies. An approximate relation based on atomic ratios is derived for slow geological heating but is also valuable for comparing samples under other conditions. The percentage of oil, on a weight basis, that can be generated is given by: . Typical results for twelve Australian coals and twelve world oil shales are given as examples. 相似文献

Tars produced by rapid pyrolysis of several Canadian coals have been characterized. Raw tars were separated into solvent fractions which were analysed by a combination of PONA separation by high-performance liquid chromatography, high-resolution capillary gas chromatography and chromatography-mass spectrometry. The alkane-alkene pairs and poly nuclear aromatics found in hexane and benzene fractions are reported for four coals pyrolysed under a range of conditions. The predominance of C8 to C14–18 alkane-alkene pairs together with alkyl-substituted benzenes and naphthalenes in the hexane-soluble oils, and three-to five-membered ring aromatics in the benzene-soluble asphaltenes from bituminous coal tars was established. Effects of pyrolysis temperature on aromatic homologues and key nitrogen, sulphur and oxygen heterocyclic homologues are shown. 相似文献

A selection of fifteen Victorian brown coals, which varied in lithotype but only slightly in rank, were subjected to supercritical gas extraction with toluene. Seven of these coals were also extracted with 5% tetralin/toluene under the same conditions of temperature and pressure (400 °C and 10 MPa). The overall conversion, the extract yield and the yield of toluene solubles (oil and asphaltene) were correlated with more easily obtained coal properties using simple linear regression analysis. Good correlations were obtained between the total conversions and the volatile matter content of the coals, and for the toluene extractions between both the extract yield and the yield of toluene solubles and the H/C atomic ratio. For the toluene solubles from the toluene extractions, the aromaticity decreased and the molecular weight increased as the H/C atomic ratio of the coal increased. Inorganic constituents of the coals did not appear to have a marked effect on total conversion and liquid yields. Removal of the cations from two coals increased conversion and liquid yields in one case and decreased these in the other, but in both instances the changes were not large. 相似文献

Three Western Canadian coals were gasified with air and steam in a fluidized bed of 0.73 mm sand and coal, at atmospheric pressure and temperatures of 1023–1175K to produce a low-calorific-value gas. One non-caking and two caking coals were tested. The effects of temperature, coal feed rate, ratio, ratio, coal quality, coal particle size and bed depth on gas composition, gas calorific value and operating stability of the gasifier were established. Results are compared with those previously obtained for the same three coals when gasified in essentially the same equipment, but operated as a spouted bed. 相似文献
