The Response Characteristics of Pore Volume and Specific Surface Area of Different Phases of Carbon Dioxide Injection into Anthracite Coal Pores

Abstract

After the coal sample reacts with CO2, the porosity and pore volume change. Compared with dry raw coal sample, the porosity of coal after CO2 adsorption is increased. With the increase of CO2 injection pressure, the porosity of coal will gradually increase, especially when CO2 enters the supercritical phase. In terms of pore capacity of coal samples, CO2 adsorption time, CO2 adsorption pressure and CO2-H2O treatment do not show obvious regularity in the changes of pore capacity of coal samples, but in general, the increase of CO2 adsorption pressure and CO2-H2O treatment have a positive effect on the increase of pore capacity of coal samples, especially ScCO2-H2O. The mesoporous pore capacity increased by 137.1%. In terms of macro pore volume of coal sample, the change of macro pore volume after CO2 adsorption is more regular. Extending CO2 adsorption time, increasing CO2 adsorption pressure and CO2-H2O treatment all have positive effects on the increase of macro pore volume of coal sample. Under 8MPaScCO2-H2O, macro pore volume reaches a maximum of 0.016462ml/g. The increase also reached 130.4 percent. On the mesoporous specific surface area of coal sample, increasing CO2 adsorption pressure, prolongating CO2 adsorption time and CO2-H2O treatment can increase the mesoporous specific surface area of the sample. The mesoporous specific surface area of the sample at 8 MPa ScCO2-H2O is 0.631 m2/g, which reaches the maximum in this experiment, with an increase of 334.27%.
