To ensure the accuracy and stability of results of coal oxidation and spontaneous combustion in the process of thermal analysis experiment, the speed and time of coal oxidation must be moderate, and the characteristic parameters in the oxidation process can be fully reflected. Thermal analysis experiment at different heating rates, with several particle sizes and different sample quality, Huangling coal sample as the research object, were carried out in this paper. Results showed that the particle size of 0.075 mm to 0.109 mm, sample quality of 5 mg and the heating rate of 10 K•min-1could ensure the fully oxidation and pyrolysis of coal, under which conditions coal spontaneous combustion characteristics could be reflected by the characteristic temperatures.

AbstractIn the present paper, with using diverse methods (including the SEM, the XRD, the TPO, the FTIR, and the TGA) , the authors analysed samples of the major coal seam in Dahuangshan Mining area with different particle sizes and with different heated temperatures (from 50 to 800 °C at regular intervals of 50 °C). The results from SEM and XRD showed that high temperature and high number of pores, fissures, and hierarchical structures in the coal samples could facilitate oxidation reactions and spontaneous combustion. A higher degree of graphitization and much greater number of aromatic microcrystalline structures facilitated spontaneous combustion. The results from TPO showed that the oxygen consumption rate of the coal samples increased exponentially with increasing temperature. The generation rates of different gases indicated that temperatures of 90 °C or 130 °C could accelerate coal oxidation. With increasing temperature, the coal oxidation rate increased, and the release of gaseous products was accelerated. The FTIR results showed that the amount of hydroxide radicals and oxygen-containing functional groups increased with the decline in particle size, indicating that a smaller particle size may facilitate the oxidation reaction and spontaneous combustion of coal. The absorbance and the functional group areas at different particle sizes were consistent with those of the heated coal samples, which decreased as the temperature rose. The results from TGA showed that the characteristic temperature T3 declined with decreasing particle size. After the sample with 0.15–0.18 mm particle size was heated, its carbon content decreased, and its mineral content increased, inhibiting coal oxidation. This result also shows that the activation energy of the heated samples tended to increase at the stage of high-temperature combustion with increasing heating temperature.

In order to evaluate the effect of particle size on FeS Spontaneous Combustion Characters, four different grain diameters of FeS particles (100, 170, 220, 320-mesh) were detected in the experiment. The reaction process at heating rates of 5°C /min in air flow from 30°C to 900°C were studied by TG-DSC and oxidation kinetic analysis. The activation energies of samples were calculated by the Coats-Redfern method. It is found that four reaction mechanisms are involved in FeS spontaneous combustion for different particle sizes; the activation energy values change from 307.4 to 398.05 kJ/mol; larger size particles have higher activation energy values; so grain diameters larger than 100-mesh size samples are less inclined to be oxidized and self-ignited.
