Three Western Canadian coals were gasified with air and steam in a fluidized bed of 0.73 mm sand and coal, at atmospheric pressure and temperatures of 1023-l 175K to produce a low-calorific-value gas. One non-caking and two caking coals were tested. The effects of temperature, coal feed rate, air/co

Mercury porosimetry was used to study changes in the pore structure of three western Canadian low-rank coals treated in three different atmospheres (nitrogen, steam and combustion products) at temperatures up to 500ยฐC. The intrusion curves are well described by two different power laws in the pressu
Nine Canadian coals of different rank and composition were studied by electron spin resonance. For percentage of fixed carbon in the range of 43 to 78 wt%, the free radical g values were found to increase with decreasing carbon content, and did not level off for the low rank coals. The free radical
Samples of coal-ash slags were characterized using optical and scanning electron microscopy, electron microprobe analysis and X-ray diffraction. The results show that essentially the slags contain a glassy phase with minor crystalline phases such as mullite, cristobalite and quartz. Viscosities of t
