Abstract
The pyrolysis of low rank coal (LRC) , enteromorpha (EN) and their mixture were carried out in a special prolysis equipment. The experiments showed that the maximum tar yield of blends was 11.39% with a EN ration of 30%, which increased by 28.61% compared to LRC pyrolysis alone and 8.87% compared to calculated value. The thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) of LRC, EN and their mixture indicated that there was significant synergistic effect in the co-pyrolysis process of LRC and EN during 240~750°C. The relative maximum value of synergistic effect was 18.5%. Kinetics analysis showed there was compensation effect between activation energy and pre-exponential factor of co-pyrolysis. The mix of LRC and EN enhanced the reaction activity and lowers the reaction rate. Synergistic effect mainly was reflected in enhancing the reaction activity of co-pyrolysis.
