Oil yield of bituminous coal
Thread Content
I would like to know the relationship between the oil yield of bituminous coal and the elements it contains, such as oxygen, carbon, hydrogen, sulfur, and nitrogen, as well as factors like volatile matter and calorific value. Thank you!
It’s mainly related to hydrocarbons, I guess
It definitely has a direct relationship with volatile matter. I don’t see any corresponding relationship with the elements.
The oil yield of bituminous coal is closely related to its volatiles content.
Take a look at the series on modern coal chemical engineering technologies to learn about coal and pyrolysis; in fact, the oil yield is highly related to the carboxyl groups in the type of coal.
