Abstract:This work investigates the structural characteristics and graphitizability of tars obtained from thermal pyrolysis versus the reactive microwave (MW) plasma pyrolysis of coals. Powder River Basin (PRB) coal tars obtained by thermal pyrolysis have been compared with tars obtained from MW plasma pyrolysis containing H 2 . To study the effect of coal rank and MW plasma environment, the PRB tars have been compared with Middle Kittanning (MK) coal tars obtained from an argon−hydrogen MW plasma (hp) and an argon-CO … Show more
