Kinetics of co-pyrolysis of high- and low-solfur coal blends with additives

Abstract

The thermogravimetric studies of a pyrolytic decomposition of blend based on low- and highsulfur coals with additives (components of coal-tar and radical polymerization initiator) were carried out. Thermokinetic analysis demonstrated that thermal decomposition of the chemically treated bland proceeds more intensely than for the original bland and permits variation in the gas evolution rate on the different stages of pyrolysis process.
