Abstract

H2O2 was used under different temperatures and pressures to activate three kinds of different semi-cokes. FTIR, BET, SEM and Boehm titration were used to analyze properties of the semi-cokes surfaces, finding that catalytic activities of these semi-cokes after modification by high temperature and high pressure H2O2 were improved. FTIR shows that the characteristic infrared absorption peak of functional groups on the semi-cokes surface does not change, but the absorption peak intensity of some functional groups is increased. The strength of OH absorption peak of Hongce lignite (HCL) semi-coke at 3444cm−1, carboxyl CO at 1598cm−1, aliphatic ether, cyclic ether and other organic functional groups at 1023cm−1 in the modified Shenmu bituminous(SMB) semi-coke and Jincheng anthracite (JCA) semi-coke are increased significantly. BET finds that the specific surface area and pore volume of three semi-cokes are increased after modification. Boehm titration shows that the basic functional group content in semi-coke is increased after modification, and the net alkali content is increased significantly. Compared with the raw semi-coke, SEM shows that the surface of semi-coke modified with H2O2 becomes rough. Modified JCA semi-coke surface pitted with holes, modified HCL and SMB semi-coke surface present porous.
