In the test, 50-gram of coal sample ranged from 0.18 mm to 0.38 mm was put into a special designed copper reaction vessel and let pure nitrogen to flow into the coal sample from the bottom at a rate of 100 mL/min. The programmed temperature enclosure was run at a programmed rate of 0.8 ~C/min. The concentration of the carbon oxides and the coal temperature were tested. The results show that the coal reactions under inert atmosphere can generate CO and C02. The reactions under inert atmosphere are affected by coal ranks, initial pore structure of coal and sulfur content. For low ranks of coal, the productions of carbon oxides are piecewise. The coal temperature is lower than the surrounding temperature throughout the reactions under inert atmosphere, but it rises quickly and reaches a crossing point temperature in the later stage under dry-air atmosphere. Based on the analysis, it indicates the self-reaction of initial active groups exists in the self-heating of coal besides the reactions in the two parallel reactions model. Spontaneous combustion of coal is due to both the oxidation heat accumulation and the chain reaction. A new reaction model of self-heating of coal was orooosed.展开更多

The experimental factors including the SO2/Hg sorbent characteristics, 50% breakthrough time for SO2/Hg removal, sorbent packed bed depth and reaction temperature were investigated. The experimental results show that after steam activation, the BET specific surface area and specific pore volume increased from 37.8 to 45.5 m^2/g and from 0.42 to 0.51 cm^3/g, respectively. With activation of the sorbent by steam, the 50% breakthrough times of SO2 and Hg removal increased from 34 to 42 rain and from 23 to 45 rain, respectively. When the packed bed depth was increased from 5 to 25 ram. the 50% breakthrough times for Hg and S02 removal increased from 12 to 52 rain and from 6 to 47 rain, respectively. With the increase of the reaction temperature, the 50% breakthrough of SO2/Hg removal decreased accordingly. Steam activation can efficiently improve SO2/Hg removal simultaneously.展开更多
