Coal samples are irradiated with 3He ions to produce "C, 13N, and 18F via the following nuclear reactions : 12C(3He, 4He)11C; 12C(3He, d)13N; 160(3He, p)18F. By comparing the "C to 18F pro- duction, a direct comparison of the amounts of carbon and oxygen present in the coal samples can be obtained.

Recent advances in electron microprobe technology together with the development of synthetic crystals have enabled development of techniques for direct light element (C, 0, N) analyses of coal macerals. The analytical results are both accurate compared to ASTM methods and highly precise, and provide
Five Czech coals of different rank (70.2, 71.5, 74.5, 75.0 and 83.3 wtT$, carbon) were heated at different temperatures in the range 25&85o"C and the contents of oxygen-containing functional groups (-OH, -COOH, =CO, -OCH,) were determined in the coals and carbonization residues. The coals and residu
