Factors affecting the reactivity of coal chars during gasification, and indices representing reactivity

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors reviewed literature data for the rate of gasification of coal chars with oxygen, CO2 and steam and clarified the factors controlling this process. But, they did not consider the effect of the number of active sites in the coal matrix.

A random pore model for fluid‐solid reactions: I. Isothermal, kinetic control

TL;DR: In this paper, a random pore model is developed for fluid-solid reactions, which allows for arbitrary pore size distributions in the reacting solid. But the model is not suitable for the case of gasification, and it cannot represent the behavior of a system that shows a maximum in reaction rate as well as one that does not.

The importance of active surface area in the carbon-oxygen reaction1,2

TL;DR: In this article, the authors measured the coverage of the surface with oxygen complex upon exposure of the samples to O2 at 300 deg for 24 hours, and calculated the unoccupied active surface area of the oxidized samples.

Reactivity of heat-treated coals in air at 500 °C

TL;DR: In this paper, the reactivity of lignite coal was measured by a gravimetric method and the results showed that lower-rank coal chars are more reactive than those prepared from high-rank coals.

Reactivity of heat-treated coals in carbon dioxide at 900 °C

TL;DR: In this article, the reactivity of sixteen 40 × 100 mesh U.S. coals charred to 1000 °C were measured in carbon dioxide at 900 °C and showed that magnesium and calcium are important to char reactivity.

Enhancement of lignite char reactivity to steam by cation addition

TL;DR: In this article, a raw lignite has been treated with HCl and HF to demineralize it and to increase its carboxyl content prior to exchanging selected cations with the hydrogen on the Carboxyl groups.
