Changes in chemical and physical properties of South African caking coals during pyrolysis
(North-West University, 2015)The plasticity of coal during pyrolysis is of significant importance, since it affects the reactivity, porosity, particle size and the density of the char and thus also the behaviour of the char during further utilisation ... -
The influence of biomass additions on the pyrolysis behaviour of an inertinite rich South African coal
(North-West University (South Africa), Potchefstroom Campus, 2013)The influences of selected biomasses (hardwood chips, softwood chips, pinewood chips and sugarcane bagasse) on the degradation of an inertinite-rich South African coal were studied. The pyrolysis process is important ... -
The influence of potassium and calcium species on the swelling and reactivity of a high–swelling South African coal
(2014)Alkali compounds were added to a South African coal with a high swelling propensity and the behaviour of the blends were investigated. A vitrinite-rich bituminous coal from the Tshikondeni coal mine in the Limpopo province ...
