Studies of Mono- and Polynuclear Iron Hydroxy Complexes in Brown Coal

Abstract: Iron hydroxy complexes were added to brown coal by a stepwise pH adjustment of solutions of Fe(III) mixed with coal. The amounts of NaOH used to adjust the pH and the amount of Fe(III) added to coal were consistent with the addition of both mono-and polynuclear iron complexes to coal. Analysis of the bulk sample and of the sample sieved into smaller and larger particles, and SEM-EDX examination of large and small particles, revealed an uneven distribution of iron, with higher concentrations in smaller coal par… Show more

“…Sodium and iron in the coal and char was also measured by acid extraction and atomic absorption spectrometry (AAS) as previously described. 24,25 Pyrolysis. Samples consisted of acid-washed coal and coal with known amounts of added iron (a sample of coal containing sodium was also included, to determine any impact sodium may exert on the pyrolysis results).…”

“…23 Our interest in low-temperature pyrolysis stems from investigations on the catalytic gasification of low-rank coals, particularly, Australian and German brown coal with added sodium or calcium and also added transition-metal species such as iron or nickel hydroxyl species. [24][25][26] Differentiation between thermolysis of metal complexes and the chemistry that may be attributed to any catalyst species, if present, requires an understanding of the initial molecular structure of the added metal complex and the molecular transformations of the inorganic complex within the coal substrate upon heating. It is necessary, therefore, to relate product formation (such as CO 2 and CO) with the transformation of inorganic species at low temperatures, because these events form inorganic complexes that may be subsequently involved in gasification chemistry.…”

“…The chelation ratio of Fe 3+ increases with the increase in reaction time when the reaction time is less than 55 minutes; however, the chelation ratio decreases again when the reaction time is more than 55 minutes. With the increase in pH, the hydroxide complex of Fe 3+ slowly transforms to the multinuclear ions structure . The reaction rate of the multinuclear ions complex is slower than the mononuclear ions complex.…”

“…To protect water environment, effective disposal of lignite-derived water to avoid direct discharge is prerequisite. More important, applying appropriate methods to treat the lignite-derived water for reuse may have great significance in China, where has serious water shortage [6][7][8][9].…”
