Co-carbonization characteristics of long flame coal mixed with algae in different proportions were studied in a dry distillation equipment, and focusing on the coal tar of the product with GC-MS and FT-IR in order to investigate the changes in coal tar, The results show that the tar yield increases with the increasing of algae added, the light oil components of co-carbonized coal tar (with the optimal proportion 20:10 ) compared with conventional coal tar increased 29.55% while naphthalene content increased 9.15% and phenol content increased 23.93%. The algae sample played a role in hydrogen donating and the reactions involved opening-ring reaction, alkyl aromatic side chain reaction and condensation reaction, etc.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
