✦ Synopsis

Air-gasification at low temperatures (733-773 K) of chars from Spanish coals catalysed by V,O, has been studied and the results have been compared with those obtained previously using copper as catalyst. Under the reaction conditions, both catalysts showed high activity due to their ability to undergo redox cycles at the interface and to wet, more or less extensively, the surface of the carbon. However, samples containing copper showed the highest reactivity, in contrast to the findings of other authors at higher temperatures.

The purpose of this study was to characterize the calcium (nature, amount of various species and state of division) in carbonaceous materials such as low-rank coal char or a model char (obtained by pyrolysis of a polymeric resin at 1273 K under an inert gas). Ca loading (~6 wt%) was performed by imp

The formation of surface complexes on active sites during the reaction of Saran char with air at 648K has been investigated. The oxygen complexes were thermally desorbed up to 1223K as CO and CO2 following gasification of the char to different levels of burn-off. Areas occupied by the complex increa

Previously it was shown that certain mixtures of K2S04 and FeSO, were excellent raw materials for catalytic watervapourgasification of carbon. It was suggested from the results that the iron salt catalyses the reduction of K2S04 to K as the main catalyticly active species of gasification. This paper
