Behavior of Coal Tar-N Formed in Coal Pyrolysis.

Coal tars and coal tar pitches.

Numerous studies, mostly case reports, have found that occupational exposure to coal tars or coal-tar pitches (coal-tar distillates) is associated with skin cancer, including scrotal cancer; workers in these studies have included patent-fuel (coal-briquette) workers, pitch loaders, workers in electrical trades, and optical-lens polishers (IARC 1985, 1987). A 1946 study in the United Kingdom fou...

Progress in Coal Pyrolysis Research

The factors considered are summarized in Table 1. The problem of answering the questions is that multiple chemical reactions occur whose results depend on how the reactants are bound in the coal macromolecular network. Species-selective transport of the reactants and products further complicate the interpretations. In what follows, we have tried to focus on topics where answers are needed or wh...

Improving the Yield and Quality of Tar during Co-pyrolysis of Coal and Cotton Stalk

Co-pyrolysis of Shenmu coal (SM) and cotton stalk (CS) at different blend ratios were carried out in a tubular furnace. The pyrolysis temperature was up to 600 °C at 5 °C/min and kept for 15 min. The results indicated that there was an interactive effect between SM and CS, which increased the tar yield. Moreover, the content of light components in co-pyrolysis tar from all CS/SM blend ratios wa...

Coal Tar Analysis by Lc/ms

The production of liquids from coal gives rise to complex intermediates which require detailed analysis to understand the processes occurring and to make effective use of the products. Analysis has hitherto been based on structural parameters from NMR methods (1) to give the average characteristics of the sample, supplemented by molecular information from GC and GC/MS. The gas chromatographic a...
