Abstract
The changes in the hydrogen bonds (HBs) of Loy Yang lignite during low-temperature pyrolysis were investigated. The water content of all of the samples was determined by weighing the samples before and after heating in an oven. The changes in the number of the different types of HBs were determined using diffuse reflectance Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy considering the forms of water in lignite. The number of absorption bands, their peak positions, and the area of each peak in each spectrum were determined by curve-fitting analysis with the mixed Gaussian and Lorentzian function. The quantified integrated area of aromatic hydrogen atoms was used to accurately investigate the changes in the HBs. The results showed that the freezable and nonfreezable water contents of the total water weight in raw lignite were 84.8% and 15.2%, respectively. At low temperatures (T ≤ 100 °C), the main removed water was freezable water. The number of OH–lignite interactions decreased compared with raw lignite, which ...
