Dependence on inert gas such as nitrogen during torrefaction is not favourable due to the
burden in terms of operational costs. Therefore, various alternatives have been introduced to …

Pyrolysis technology has received increasing attention in recent years due to its great
potential in the field of low-rank coal clean and efficient conversion. Since pyrolysis reaction …

Pyrolysis provides a useful way to develop lignite with low direct economic value, therefore,
it is worthwhile to study how to realize efficient pyrolysis and produce more combustible gas …

In this work, thermal behavior of five different coal particle fractions were investigated using
thermogravimetric analyzer (TGA) under various heating rates with the maximum of 1000 …

Torrefaction is a mild thermal pretreatment (T< 300° C) that improves biomass milling and
storage properties. The impact of torrefaction on the gasification and oxidation reactivity of …

This study focuses on characteristics of structure evolution during pyrolysis and subsequent
char gasification of lignite and bituminous coal. Coal pyrolysis was conducted on induction …

Two kinds of char were prepared from a lignite by fast pyrolysis using a drop tube furnace
and by slow pyrolysis using a fixed-bed furnace at the temperature of 1273K. Scanning …

Superfine pulverized coal as a new energy utilization method plays a significant role in
alleviating pollutant emissions. The devolatilization behavior of superfine pulverized coal …

Inherent minerals, especially alkali and alkaline earth metals (AAEM), are reactive
constituents that interact with organic matter during pyrolysis and have significant effects on …

The selective enrichment of macerals and inorganic minerals during coal grinding may have
an obvious effect on pyrolysis reactivity. In this paper, chemical structures and pyrolysis …
