Exploitation of coalbed methane (CBM) has dual advantages of not only providing
alternative clean-energy but also effectively reducing the proneness for gas outbursts. CBM …

This paper provides a review of the state-of-the-art research in the open literature on the
carbon structure evolution in the semi-coke region following the last stage of the plastic layer …

Epoxy resin is widely used in thermosetting polymer modified asphalt. However, the
delamination and segregation will occur owing to the poor compatibility between epoxy …

Evaluating the coking coal quality from coal structure thermal transformation was crucial to
control the coking process. The coal quality indices of ash composition, volatile matter …

Injection of CO 2 into deep coal seams has offered great potential to sequester CO 2 and
while simultaneously enhancing coalbed methane recovery. Unlike other sequestration …

The transformation of the carbon structure of coal during the coking process influences the
coke microstructure and microtexture, and ultimately, the coke quality. This study …

The mechanism of coal coking was investigated based on the structural transformation of
coal matrix during thermoplasticity. The properties of structural units and fracture patterns of …

The structure of coke affects its reactivity and strength, which directly influences its
performance in the blast furnace. This review divides coke structures into chemical structure …

When they are heated in coke ovens, coking coals become softened, coalesce into
theremoplastic matter and then resolidify into a solid porous coke after the thermoplastic …

The coke quality influences the performance of the blast furnace, and the coal properties
and coke structure play important roles in affecting the ultimate coke quality. The evolution of …
