✦ Synopsis

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 500°C. The intrusion curves are well described by two different power laws in the pressure range 0.1-200 MPa. Principal-component analysis was performed to determine relations among the power-law exponents, equilibrium moisture and volatile matier.

Mercury porosimetry in the pressure range l-1000 atm was applied to a series of coals (72\*7-93\*2% carbon). Pore volume deduced from mercury penetration was compared with that from density measurement with mercury and n-hexane. It was suggested that the apparent increase of pore volume above the pr

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
