A precursor for a general purpose carbon fiber was prepared from coal tar pitch (CP) modified with 10 % p-benzoquinone (BQ) at 380 ?C for 3 hours. Such a modification raised the softening of the pitch from 85 ?C to 271 ?C at a yield of 43 %. The modified pitch was spun smoothly at a rate of 480 m/min into a fiber of 20 Μm diameter. The fiber was stepwise stabilized at 236 ?C (5 ?C/min) and 312 ?C (1 ?C/min) for 3 hours at each temperature. Successively,carbonization and graphitization were performed at 1,000 ?C and 2,400 ?C, respectively, for one hour. Both the carbonized and graphitized fibers exhibited tensile strength of 570 MPa. The structural parameters of carbon and graphite fibers were their orientation values of 56.2 and 58.1 %, relatively low Lc(002) of 11.24 and 25 å, and large interlayer spacing (d002) of 3.86 and 3.49 å, respectively. 相似文献
In this paper the effect of residence time on variation in helium density, specific energy, acid equivalents, carboxyl and phenolic acidity values in the process of low temperature oxidation of Assam Coal has been highlighted. It has been observed that the progressive increase of oxidation time resulted in reduction of specific energy but caused to increase in helium density, acid equivalents, carboxyl and phenolic acidity values of oxidised product. The specific energy of oxidised coal is found to correlate linearly with helium density with correlation coefficient of 0.996. 相似文献
The exothermic processes during coal storage reduce the calorific value of the coal which in turn results in financial losses. An accurate and easy calculation of the losses may be an efficient tool to evaluate the effectiveness of the measures taken to reduce the spontaneous heating of coal and to predict the appearance of hot spots. This study was carried out with ‘Mezcla' coal used at Endesa power station in Andorra–Teruel (Spain). For this purpose, laboratory measurements relating to spontaneous heating properties and field measurements were carried out. Three experimental coal piles were built, a high porosity pile, a periodically compacted pile and a pile with a low angle slope in the prevailing wind direction. A method to determine the coefficient of total losses was developed and the coefficients of calorific losses and total losses were also found. Temperatures were measured by infrared thermography and by thermocouples and a good agreement between them was found. The use of a mathematical model, developed by ASINEL, allowed to calculate the heat fluxes due to spontaneous heating and a new coefficient of calorific losses, the similarity of this coefficient with the experimentally found revealed the effectiveness of this method to quantify heat emissions. The self-heating behaviour of the pile was also followed by an infrared thermographic camera which allowed the detection of heat fluxes. 相似文献
This paper reports the control methods for mitigating fouling and slagging in brown coal-fired power utilities. Two control methods were investigated, i.e. wet pretreatment of coal and the use of mineral additives. By the first technique, samples of brown coal were treated with aluminium solutions to adjust the levels of Na, Al and Cl. The effect of cleaning was tested under closely controlled conditions in the range of 1000–1400°C. At a gas temperature of 1250°C, the deposition behaviour of treated and raw coals were compared using a deposition probe maintained at temperatures of 500, 600, 700 and 800°C. The second technique involved experiments with mixtures of candidate mineral additives and sodium compounds at temperatures ranging from 1000 to 1400°C.
Experiments showed that both the methods were effective in reducing ash-related problems. Between 1000 and 1400°C, the quantity of condensable salts generated was found to depend only on the amount of sodium in coal. With the wet method, aluminium reduces the sodium level and thus fouling by ion exchange. The stickiness of sodium silicates from this coal was also shown to be reduced by aluminium. Deposition model calculations based on sticking probability also indicated that Al-treated coals result in less ash deposition on boiler surfaces. Experiments with mineral additives showed that sodium could be captured by clay minerals, particularly kaolin. For Victorian brown coal-based power station boilers, 10–20 μm kaolin making up 2–3 wt.% of the feed was estimated to effectively reduce the ash problems. 相似文献
Recent interest in the suitability of Australian bituminous coals for use in integrated gasification-combined cycle (IGCC) technologies has provided the opportunity to determine viscosity data for a range of coal ashes slags fluxed with limestone at the tapping temperatures of entrained flow gasifiers. Experimental viscosity measurements have been made over a range of slag compositions covering the anorthite region at the 0–2.5, 2.5–5, 5–7.5 and 7.5–10 wt% FeO levels of the quaternary SiO2–Al2O3–CaO–FeO system. Contour plots of viscosities at 1450°C for the four FeO ranges are presented as an example for predicting slag behaviour in entrained flow gasifiers. The viscosity measurements have also been fitted empirically using a modified Urbain treatment to give separate models for the four FeO levels. Polynomial expressions are given for the evaluation of viscosities covering the temperature range 1400–1550°C for slags within the compositional range used in the derivation. 相似文献
