Microwave pyrolysis of coal is a new research method for deeply processing of low rank coal. This paper conducted comparative study on microwave co-pyrolysis products of low rank coal in CO2 and N2 atmosphere. The composition and content of tar and bluecoke were analyzed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry and FTIR spectroscopy. The results showed that the yields of liquid products in CO2 and N2 atmosphere were 20.6% and 18.0% respectively, and the yields of bluecoke were 62.0% and 65.8%. Bluecoke obtained from CO2 pyrolysis atmosphere had the lower content of fixed carbon and oxygenic functional groups, but the higher content of volatile. There was the lower content of aromatic hydrocarbons and the higher content of oxygenic functional groups in the tar produced in CO2 pyrolysis atmosphere due to CO2 gasification effect.

The microwave pyrolysis is a new research method for deeply processing of coal. This paper researched the microwave pyrolysis products of low rank coal under N2 and non-N2 atmosphere. The results showed that, compared with non-N2 atmosphere, the yield of liquid products increased by 4.65%, while the yield of solid bluecoke decreased by 2.95% under N2 atmosphere. The infrared characteristics absorption peak intensity of bluecoke obtained from N2 pyrolysis atmosphere was weaker; N2 contributed to the transformation of heavy oil into light oil.

Microwave pyrolysis of low rank coal is a new technology of cleaner production. The effect of microwave power and flow rate of N2 on the yield of pyrolysis products under N2 atmosphere was explored. The results showed that the higher microwave power was, the higher all the terminal temperature, the yield of liquid products and the weight loss rate were. The flow rate of N2 had little influence on the yield of pyrolysis solid products, while it exerted a greater influence on the yield of pyrolysis liquid products. When the low rank coal was pyrolysised under the conditions of microwave power of 800W and flow rate of N2 of 4.0×10-4 m3/min, the yield of Bluecoke and liquid products respectively reached 65.8% and 18%.

The mutual impact of low-quality lignite and high-density polyethylene (HDPE) during open system pyrolysis was investigated, aiming to improve utilization of lignite with simultaneous treatment of HDPE waste. Pyrolysis of lignite, HDPE, and their mixture (mass ratio, 1:1) was performed at temperatures 400, 450, 500, 550, and 600 °C. Initial substrates and pyrolysis products were characterized by thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), gas chromatography–mass spectrometry (GC–MS), specific carbon isotope analysis of individual hydrocarbons (δ13C), Rock-Eval pyrolysis, and elemental analysis. The positive synergetic effect during co-pyrolysis of lignite/HDPE mixture was observed at temperatures ≥450 °C, with the greatest being at 500 °C. The highest yield of liquid co-pyrolysis products with a similar composition to that of crude oils is also noticed at 500 °C. The yields of liquid and gaseous products and quality of pyrolytic products obtained by co-pyrolysis of lignite/HDPE mixture are notably improved compared with pyrolysis of lignite alone. On the other hand, data obtained from pyrolysis of HDPE alone indicate that it cannot be concurrent to well-developed catalytic thermal processes for polymer recycling. However, concerning the huge amount of produced HDPE, at least part of this plastic material can be reused for advanced thermal treatment of lignite, particularly in countries where this low-rank coal represents the main source of energy.

In this paper,a research was carried out on the regularities of carbonization temperature,holding time and mass on weightlessness of low rank coal. The experiment showed experiments in a certern range (450°C~700°C,<60min),weightlessness of coal in an increasing trend,the remained volatile content of semi-coke was measured reduce tending to value,ash content increased,fixed carbon gradually increased in the temperature range with the improvement of the carbonization temperature and holding time,also hydrogen and oxygen content of the char decreased,a significant increased in the carbon content,nitrogen and sulfur content was essentially the same. Reactivity of CO2 and semi-coke obtained in different carbonization conditions were better,the response rates are 100% when the temperature exceeded 1000°C. Best condition of dry distillation: carbonization temperature was 500°C~650°C,mass of low rank coal was less than 30g,holding time was between 30 minutes to 40 minutes.

In this paper, conventional pyrolysis (CP) and microwave pyrolysis (MWP) for three types of low rank coal in western China was studied. The effects of pyrolysis methods and temperature etc on product yields were also discussed. Pyrolysis products were characterized by IR, Gas analysis meter and GC-MS. Results showed that the tar and gas yields in microwave pyrolysis is about 3%-5% higher than those in the conventional pyrolysis. H2 and CO proportions in gas are above 55%. The contents of benzene, aromatic hydrocarbon and phenolic compound in microwave pyrolysis tar are higher than those in the conventional pyrolysis, in addition, C5~C10 substance content in tar is about 5 times as that in the conventional, so the microwave pyrolysis can prompt tar converting to light fraction.
