Synergistic effects of microwave and molten Na2CO3 on pyrolysis and gasification of bituminous coal
In this study, the effects of microwave and sodium carbonate (Na2CO3) on the pyrolysis and gasification characteristics of bituminous coal (BC) were evaluated. Applying microwave enabled effective pyrolysis of organic compounds, especially polar ones, in the coal at ∼550 °C, producing CO and H2 with a total absolute yield exceeding 80 %. In contrast, Na2CO3 required temperatures above 650 °C to react with organics in the coal, producing no more than 1/3 of the CO and H2 yield achieved via microwave pyrolysis (MP). The activation temperatures of BC chars, collected from conventional pyrolysis (CP), for microwave and conventional gasification (MG and CG, respectively) were ∼850 °C and ∼950 °C, respectively. By combining microwave with Na2CO3, substantially reduced to 650–700 °C. The synergistic effects of microwave and Na2CO3 promoted the development of structural disorder within the carbon framework and formation of carbon vacancies, thereby realizing rapid low-temperature gasification of the char.
