Pyrolysis, as a first step in all thermochemical coal conversion processes, has been investigated in detail over the years in order to evaluate the kinetic data and to establish reliable models for the complex reaction scheme. Since coal pyrolysis is not a single reaction but rather a multiplicity i

Mathematical models are proposed to predict the true density of coal, semi-coke and coke and the porosity of a coke oven charge during carbonization. These models are combined in a further model which predicts the hitherto unexplained 'twin-peaked' contraction curve observed for semi-coke. It is fou
Published data on the specific heat of coal and coke have been analysed and have been used to define a model which predictsthe specific heat of coal during thermal decomposition. The Einstein model is used to describethevariation of specific heat with temperature and the effect of composition isdete
A mathematical model to predict the strength of a coke manufactured from a blend of coals is proposed. The model operates in terms of 'bond strengths' between the constituents. The magnitudes of these bond strengths may be determined from the strengths of cokes manufactured from the individual const
