Abstract

The kinetic features of oxidation of a Spanish brown coal by dioxygen (studied by means of TG and DTA) and by oxygen plasma (carried out in a low-temperature ashing apparatus) are compared. It is concluded that slowness in brown coal oxidation by radiofrequency-activated oxygen is associated with formation of sulphate and nitrate artifacts which prevent the access of the oxidizing agent to the surface of organic coal matter.
