The objective of the study is to examine the Coats-Redfern approximation and to propose an innovative kinetic calculation method for the complex process of the heavy tar thermal decomposition under non-isothermal process. The thermal decomposition process was examined using the thermogravimetric analysis. There are several kinetic models proposed to analyze pyrolysis mechanism in terms of the formal reaction. In this manner, the kinetic parameters of the pyrolysis process can be evaluated based on total mass loss (thermogravimetric analysis –TGA). The TGA procedures can be conducted with isothermal or non-isothermal conditions, but the experimental data obtained according to this procedure have to be transformed into appropriate correlation. The obtained results have shown that the reaction takes place within temperature range of 540 K to 700 K and the inductive period of the process is about 224 min. Kinetic parameters were estimated with using of the conventional Coats-Redfern method. A new kinetic calculation method has been designed to provide a less laboriousness of identifications procedures compared with Coats-Redfern approximation and to take into account an induction time of the process. As the outcome of this study, it was shown that the kinetic parameters estimated with using of the proposed model-fitted method gives the more appropriate correlation in comparison with the conventional Coats-Redfern method. The proposed method uses the Coats-Redfern algorithm for evaluation of the reaction mechanism, but the value of the constant rate is defined directly from experimental data on the conversion rate.

A bidentate Schiff base ligand namely,N,N'-bis-1,3-benzodioxol-5-ylmethylene]butane-1,4-diamine was synthesised by condensing piperonal (3,4-dioxymethylenebenzaldehyde) with butane-1,4-diamine. Cr(III), Mn(II), Fe(III) complexes of this chelating ligand were synthesised using acetates, chlorides, bromides, nitrates and perchlorates of these metals. The ligand and the complexes were characterised by elemental analysis,1H NMR, UV-Vis and IR spectra, conductance and magnetic susceptibility measurements and thermogravimetric analysis. The thermograms of three complexes were analysed and the kinetic parameters for the different stages of decompositions were determined.

Wood has been treated with amino resins and amino resins modified with phosphoric acid to impart flame retardancy. The thermal degradation of samples has been studied by thermogravimetry (TG) in air. From the resulting data, kinetic parameters for different stages of thermal degradation are obtained following the method of Broido. For the decomposition of wood and flame retardant wood, the activation energy is found to decrease from 122 to 72 kJmol-1.

The thermal decomposition of phenyl-n-butyldiazirine and of phenylmethyldiazirine in DMSO and in HOAc have been investigated over the temperature range 80–130 °C. The intermediate diazo compounds, 1-phenyl-1-diazopentane and 1-phenyldiazoethane respectively have been detected and isolated. The decomposition of phenyl-n-butyldiazirine and the subsequent decomposition of its product, 1-phenyl-1-diazopentane, are an illustration of consecutive reactions. The kinetic parameters for the isomerization and decomposition reactions have been determined. The isomerization of phenylmethyldiazirine to 1-phenyldiazoethane is first order and probably unimolecular but the kinetics for the subsequent reactions of 1-phenyldiazoethane are complicated by several competing rate processes.
