Studies on pyrolysis characteristic of lignite and properties of its pyrolysates

摘要: Abstract The resources of lignite in Dongsheng, Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region, China are abundant. Because its low energy density and typically high moisture content, is not utilized extensively compared to higher coal grades. This paper focused on pyrolysis characteristic the properties pyrolysates. result demonstrated that comprehensive utilization Dongsheng can be achieved with in-depth knowledge property lignite. experiments were carried out using a thermogravimetric analyzer (TGA) at four different heating rates 10, 15, 20 25 °C/min final temperature 600 °C. kinetics model has been developed kinetic parameters determined from TGA data.
