Abstract

Coal conversion to material or chemical by pyrolysis is the main methods for achieving carbon neutrality. To predict correct pyrolysis behavior, accurately quantifying carbon structural types of complex coal discussed in this study is significative. Carbon structural types in coal based on 13C NMR Cp/MAS TOSS spectra were accurately quantified by coupling standard curve and peak-fitting method to reduce nuclear overhauser effect (NOE). The H/C atomic ratio and aromaticity is used to verify the accuracy of this method. The pyrolysis behavior was predicted by pyrolysis Gas Chromatography-Mass Spectrometer (Py-GC-MS), thermogravimetric analysis (TG), and fix-bed slow pyrolysis according to correction carbon structure. The results show that the H/C atomic ratio calculated by correction carbon structure is agreed with that from ultimate analysis, as well as aromaticity. Their correction relative deviations are below 10%, farther lower than experimental value, increasing with the increment of Cdaf%. The correction carbon structure evolution during pyrolysis is coincided with general conclusion and Py-GC-MS analysis. The mono-aromatics and phenolics are evaluated by correction carbon structure. It is significantly fundamental study for carbon material to chemicals from micro-angle. These results are also a guide for accurate calculation and simulations of quantum chemistry.
