Abstract

Abstract: The micro fluidized bed reaction analyzer (MFBRA) was employed to investigate the emission characteristics and the formation kinetics of methane which was released from different kinds of coal and the blended coal during the coal pyrolysis. The results show that under the same pyrolysis condition, the initial release temperature of methane and the pyrolysis activation energy (E) decreases with increasing volatile content of the coal, while the maximum releasing rate and the total volatilization amount of methane increased, indicating that the higher the volatile content of coal, the easier the pyrolysis reaction. Coal blending can change the quality parameters of the single coal. The water content, volatile content and ash content of the blended coal were equal to the weighted average of corresponding single coal, while the activation energy (E) of blended coal was not equal to the weighted average of corresponding single coal.
