in this series on methods of sampling, analyzing, and testing solid mineral and gaseous hydrocarbon fuels have been issued. This one covers the period from October 1966 through September 1968 inclusive, and, except for minor changes, follows the general format of the previous reports. EA- REVIEKS

SOLID FUELS

This section covers ivork done on methods of sampling and chemical and physical testing of coal, coke, and related materials. There are really few innovations and most of the reports consist of refinements in existing procedures to give greater accuracy and saving of testing time. Selected items have been included under the pertinent headings or in the miscellaneous section to supplement standard test methods and to indicate new testing trends. Sampling. Committee D-5 on coal and coke of the American Society for Testing a n d Materials (ASTAI) has revised t h e s t a n d a r d coal sampling methods, D 271 and D 492, and replaced them with A S T l I Designation D 2234, Sampling of Coal, and MThI Designation D 2013, Preparing Coal Samples for Analysis ( 1A ) The standard sampling procedure covers general purpose or commercial. sampling and special or referee sampling. The sample preparation standard covers the entire procedure from the gross sample to the analysis sample. Proximate Analysis. The proximate analysis of coal measures the moisture, volatile matter, fixed carbon, and ash content. Moisture, volatile matter, and ash are determined by specified procedures. Fixed carbon is calculated by subtracting the sum of the three determined values from 100. Humphreys and Lan rence (1223) used the proximate analysis from a large number of coals to develop control charts for coal preparation plants. Computer results of these analyses were used to determine the ultimate analyses and calorific value from the proximate analyses for plant control ( I S B ) . Hinz (10B) dereloped a procedure of proximate analysis for semimicro sample quantities. I

ANALYTICAL CHEMISTRY

MOISTURE.Rees (27B) used the twostep ASTM method for total moisture on the petrographic components of coal to show how moisture could be lost in grinding coals for the preparation of the analysis sample. Vapor pressure measurements made by Stewart and Evans (35B) indicated t h a t 40% of the ivater in bron-n coal was bonded to the coal. Viktorin (4OB) used gravimetric methods to establish equivalent moisture contents of four different lignites a t different temperature levels to indicate the binding of the moisture t o the lignite. The N l I R spectra of coals were used by Ladner and Wheatley (BOB)to measure the moisture in all coals regardless of rank, mineral matter content, or size less than 6 mm. It is possible t o adopt the principle to a moving stream of coal. Seutrons were employed in slightly different ways for determination of moisture in moving streams of coal and coke. Stewart and Hall (36B) were able to check moisture values within 0.275 in coal moving a t 20 tons/hour. Gee and Laslo (9B) used a neutron gage to measure moisture in coke and automatically make corrections in the weight of material charged to the blast furnace. Egami, Kano, and Semoto ( 7 B ) reported the neutron moisture gage very effective for coke with high moisture content. The total error for coke moisture w s 5 1.6%. Luckers (21B) reported tn-0 years of stable and reliable performance of a neutron probe used in measuring moisture in a coke bin. The standard deviation was 0.550.60%. Chernyshov a n d Gruzintsev ( 4 B ) described apparatus to measure continuously the moisture in a coal stream on a belt, using a meter to register the dielectric properties of coal. Industrial tests over a tno-year period showed t h a t 977, of all determinations fell within & 0.5% of values by the national standard. Kersting (14B) discussed the factors involved in measuring the moisture in the briquetting stock by the dielectric constant and also by -/-rays from 137Cs. -1summary of ten methods of measuring moisture contents of solids was

prepared by Roth (SIB). I t covers intermittent, continuous, and partially automatic t o completely automatic devices. VOLATILEMATTER. hST?*I Designation D 121 defines volatile matter as follows: “Those products, exclusive of moisture, given off by a material as gas or vapor, determined by definite prescribed methods m-hich may vary according to the nature of the material.” The portion of the statement, “definite prescribed methods,” is intended to show t h a t the method is empirical and t h a t adherence t o specifications is mandatory. Shipley (SdB) reported, in the revision of BS 1016 parts 3 and 4, volatile matter in coal and coke, respectively, that experimental evidence of suitable nature made it possible to reduce the testing temperature from 925 to 900 “C. This change brought the British Standard in line with the recomniendations of Technical Committee 27 on Solid Mineral Fuels of t h e International Organization for Standardization (ISO). The empiric nature of t h e volatile matter determination has motivated numerous workers to delve into the several factors t h a t influence the pyrolysis of the coal or coke. Zielinski (41B) explored the rate of heating as one of the major factors. Selson, Korrall, and Kalker (26B) conducted experiments under isothermal and nonisothermal conditions on the release of volatile matter from anthracite. Special attention nas given to rate of heating and to particle size. Volatile release was constant IT ith respect to temperature and particles ranging in size from 53 4 to 12 mm. Isothermal tests on rates of H evolution obeyed a logarithmic time law and exhibited a complex dependency upon particle size. A correlation between the volatile matter a n d ash contents was shown b y Kononenko ( I Q B ) from a statibtical evaluation of experimental data. The volatile matter from a specific deposit could be calculated from the ash content. .1study on the discharge of volatile matter on the degasification of a number of coals led Salcewics and Kijeiwka

( S S B ) t o propose four stages in the degasification. The stages were defined b y temperature ranges and the composition of t h e products evolved. Resnik, Lyannay, a n d Yarovaya (68) experimentally determined unique curves for the therniophysical characteristics of coals and their mixtures in the devolatilization process. The differences between these curves explain the nonadditivity of volatile matter release from a mixture of coals.

Different methods used t o determine the volatile matter in coke mere examined by Barbu, Falk, and Ursu (1B). Some of the sources of error were claimed to be due to absorption of gases, oxidation, and surface reaction. It was suggested t h a t a few drops of CsH6added to the sample in the test crucible would displace t h e air in the apparatus and prevent oxidation. Nadziakiewicz and Heilpern (22B) examined a number of industrial cokes

~~

and found t h a t moisture and some COS were evolved at temperatures u p t o 350 "C, very little gas was given off in the range 300-700 "C and, H, CO, C 0 2 , CH4were released above 700 "C.D T A coke analyses show a n endothermic reaction u p t o about 700 "C. At this temperature t h e reaction becomes exothermic with formation of gases. Volatile matter of coke, determined under controlled conditions and plotted against temperature, showed a break VOL. 41, NO. 5, APRIL 1969

at the carbonization temperature according t o Queins and Schaefer ( I 6 B ) . It was also shown t h a t t h e test for volatile matter must be made at a temperature higher than t h a t of carbonization. The smaller particles of coke yielded larger amounts of gases. Knauf (18B) used a thermobalance t o determine the volatile matter in cokes a t 100-200 “C intervals. The gases for each interval were analyzed chromatographically. H e stated that the process of quenching produced a n irreversible reaction through t h e influence of water. Mineral matter had a n effect on the nature of the gases evolved. I n earlier Ivork Knauf (17B) determined the composition of coal and coke a t different decomposition temperatures. Kessler and Dockalova (15B) made thermogravimetric analyses of coke for volatile matter. The resulting curves indicated sorption bonding of part of the volatile matter to the coke and the other part to pyrolysis of the coke. The same authors (16B) used the crucible method for coke volatile matter, observing the necessary conditions of time, temperature, and rate of heating. It was concluded that the crucible method for coal could not be used for coke. They suggested a thermogravimetric method in an X atmosphere a t a temperature of 1000 “C for 30 minutes. ASH. Ruschev and Yankova (SIB) reduced the time required for determining the ash content of coal t o 15 minutes by adding ( 10Q/o)NH4XO3. (The original report should be consulted for details of the test procedure concerning the heating of a mixture of S H 4 K 0 3 and coal.) Dimitrov, Khristov, and Petkov ( 5 B ) used the relationship of ash content and weight of unit volume to prepare charts for estimating ash content. The term lignite-type ash was referred to by Duzy and Walker ( 6 B ) . Lignitetype ash, in which the sum of CaO plus MgO is more than the F e 2 0 3 ,is import a n t because most LT.S.coal reserves are of this type, and because these coals could cause boiler tube fouling. .A density scale was used with a n infrared moisture meter to establish a relationship between density, ash, and calorific value by Xehm and Olschewski (24B). A table prepared from these data was used to prepare various mixtures of coals. Burek (SB) used p-rays t o estimate the mineral matter of coals. X-rays (Cendrex) were used by Hudy and Deurbrouck (11B) t o evaluate the ash contents of coal to a n accuracy of 0.5% at a 95% limit of confidence. Rhodes, Daglish, and Clayton ( I Q B ) and Tanemura and Suita (S8B) used X-rays, modified to eliminate the effect of iron, in the determination of ash in coals, 310 R

ANALYTICAL CHEMISTRY

Gamma rays were used by Beizer, Goroshko, and Lokshin ( I B ) , Fushimi ( 8 B ) , and Nagy and Varga ( I S B ) in measuring the ash content of coals. There were slight variations in application. Richter and Polaschek (SOB) used ?-transmission and ?-backscattering in measuring the ash content of coal in the open face. The backscattering method was more accurate, giving a standard deviation of i-1.2 wt %. The ?-ray method to measure the ash content of coal, thickness of steel plate, glass, rubber, and plastics was modified by Trost (S9B). The energy source was originally l;oTm, but it was found t h a t 241Am, n-ith a n automatic drift compensator arrangement, gave a much longer time stability. Szymborski (37B) determined the ash content of brown coal in situ using drilling radiometry. Gamma-gamma profiling was based on selectivity and density with 6oCo and %e. The accuracy depended on the following factors: 1. The clay must consist mainly of A1203. 2. The composition of ash must remain constant. Ultimate Analysis. CARBONA N D HPDROGES. Gruson, Fritzsche, and Knauf ( 7 C ) evaluated a number of methods for elemental analyses of solid fuels and concluded that theRadmacher and Hoverath method was very rapid, simple, and suitable for most purposes. +A -,-activation method was used by Azimov, et al. ( 2 C ) to measure the carbon content of coal. Martin, Prud’homme, and Morgan (11C) described a method using fastneutron inelastic scattering and neutron activation analysis to monitor coal for C, 0, Si, and Al. TOTAL SULFUR. Mohrhauer (lac) tested the Eschka method, the Li reduction method, and two oxygen combustion methods for total sulfur in solid fuels. He found the accuracy of the four methods t o be about equal. H e pointed out sources of error in the several methods. The absorption equipment for the oxides of sulfur of the oxygen combustion method was modified by Thuerauf and .Issenmacher (IOC) and Khan, Subramanian, and Sharma (1OC). Olds, Patrick, and Shaw ( I 5 C ) also modified the oxygen combustion method by passing the products of combustion through a PzOs moisture trap and a PTFE column of a gas chromatograph for S O z determination. The weight of the test sample raried from 1 to 10 mg depending on the sulfur content. A rapid titrimetric method for the sulfates resulting from the combustion of solid or liquid fuels is described by aliDragusin and Gavriliuc ( 6 C ) . quot of the sulfate solution is diluted with acetone and titrated with BaCl, using Carboxyazo (I) indicator. At the

equivalence point the pink-violet solution abruptly turns to green-blue. Asthana (1C) reported a new method for sulfur in coal. The new feature consists of oxidizing the coal with HX03 and KClOa. After complete oxidation the sulfate is precipitated as BaS04 and determined gravimetrically. Care must be exercised in using mixtures of chlorate, nitrate, and organic matter. Prasad (1°C) used H N 0 3 and HC10, to oxidize the organic matter of coal. A portion of the resulting solution mas used to determine phosphorus by the molybdate method. Another protion was used t o determine sulfur by the gravimetric method. Ratcliffe a n d Cunningham (18C) burned 20- to 55-mg samples of coal in the 0-flask method for total sulfur. They stated that accuracy was not good enough for national standardization. X rapid q u a n t i t a t i v e method for sulfur and nitrogen was proposed by Rlukherjee, P. Dutta, and P. B. D u t t a ( 1 4 C ) . The sample of coal or coke is heated with RIg polvder, in the absence of air, to 600-660 “C. The resulting residue is treated with H3P04to liberate the sulfur as HzS which, after conversion to ZnS, is determined iodometrically. The original solution is treated n i t h excess alkali to liberate the KH3. Berman and Ergun (SC) determined S in coal by X-ray fluorescence. The coal must be ground to less than 2 in size for accurate work. This method can be used for the determination of hlg, Al, Si, Ca, and Fe, if certain interfering elements are considered. F o R h r s OF SULFUR. Although not a part of the ultimate analysis, the determination of the forms of sulfur is similar to t h a t of total sulfur. I n the review of analytical methods for “forms of sulfur,” James and Severn (8C) reported the particle size to be of considerable importance. Tests made on samples passing 210-, 124-, 76-, and 5 3 - p sieves showed higher values for pyritic sulfur with increasing fineness. -4 part of the organic sulfur of coal is removed in preparation. Kaminskii ( 9 C ) and Savchuk (19C) reported t h a t larger pyrite crystals are covered with fine grains of organic sulfur and are removed along with the pyrite on preparation. Pyritic sulfur can be estimated rapidly and n ith reasonable accuracy from the total iron content of the regular ash. Young and Zawadzki (21C) reported only slight differences between sulfur determined by standard methods and values calculated from iron in ash. XITROGEX. The distillation portion of the Kjeldahl method for nitrogen in solid fuels 11-aseliminated by Mukherjee and D u t t a (1SC). After the digestion of the coal or coke n-ith HzSOaand a catalyst, the digestion product is treated n i t h an excess of S a B r 0 3 . The excess

is determined by iodometric titration. After t h e chemical a n d physical treatment of coal, Birkofer and Orywal (4C) reported the possible nitrogen bonding, based on the assumed nitrogen distribution as the following: a n H 2 0phase containing purine bases, urea units, amino acids, and peptides (35%) ; carbazole structures giving N H 3 (lo%), low molecular weight cyclic bases and phenylamines (3%); CHCl, phase containing non-basic N compounds, fatty amines, and hydropholic bases (23y0) ; residual coal containing high molecular weight N compounds (3%) ; and off gas containing N compounds t h a t yield free Nz (26%). OXYGEN.The British Coke Research Association (5C) conducted a series of tests to determine the oxygen content of cokes. A modified Schutze-Unterzaucher method was used. The use of platinum with carbon permitted operating a t 900 "C rather than a t 1100 "C. The carbon dioxide was determined by change in conductance of the Ba(OH)z test cell. d precision of 0.04-0.1070 was claimed. P a n c h e n k o , Pogrebinskaya, a n d Leonidova ( I C ) used the Unterzaucher method for oxygen in coals. Activated carbon was used in pyrolysis and the mineral matter of the coal was reduced by heavy media a t 1.4 sp gr. Calorific Value. Koch, et al. ( I D ) described the principles, apparatus, and results of determining the calorific value of coals by the p-backscattering method. The reported error is less than 1%. Ziegenhardt (SD) did a statistical study of a large number of analyses of brown coals and developed several formulas to calculate the calorific values from the ash and tar contents. Different formulas were necessary because of the wide variations in ash and tar contents. Variations in mineral matter content of coalspresented aproblemto Kovatsits and Szava ( 2 D ) in determining the composition and heats of combustion. Petrography. The wide sphere of recent activity in coal petrography warrants its separate review. Denton, Bayer, and Hassel ( 5 E ) reported on the growth, development, and application of petrography to the study of coal. The Automatic Microscope Electronic Data Accumulator (AMEDA) has been of considerable help in the progress. Roselt (10E) discussed the sampling, macro- and micro-petrography, appearance, and physical properties of brown coals. The preparation of samples for examination by transmitted and reflected light are given. Three reports by de Vries, Habets, a n d Bokhoven (I.@) describe t h e apparatus, preparation of samples, explanation of reflectance, and effect of t e m p e r a t u r e on t h e reflectivity of bituminous coal.

The diff erentation between exinite, vitrinite, and micrinite was shown by Tschamler and D e Ruiter ( I S E ) from their studies using infrared and protonspin resonance measurements, H contents, and the aliphatic and aromatic groupings. Bennet ( 2 E ) showed that semifusinite was infusible in a polished block of medium-volatile coal after carbonizing. A study by Harrison and Thomas (YE)outlined experimental techniques for measuring differences in reflectance between wet and dry samples. Electron spin resonance studies of pure macerals of North American and British bituminous coals by Austen and Ingram ( I E ) clearly shows the differences between vitrinite, exinite, and fusinite. Taylor ( I 2 E ) examined ultrathin sections of coal with the electron microscope and observed two types of vitrinite. One type consisted of homogeneous vitrinite, while the other was a mixture of two components having properties similar to vitrinite and exinite. The mixture of components is the cause of loiv reflectance and higher volatile matter in the heterogeneous vitrinite. Although exinite, micrinite, and semifusinite n-ere identified in the thin section, vitrinite was identified only after impregnation with a P b salt. Electron micrographs of ultrathin sections of petrologic components of coals of different rank were made by McCartney, O'Donnell, and Ergun ( 9 E ) . Ultrafine structures were revealed t h a t heretofore had not been optically identified. Two general sizes of structures mere observed; one was several hundreds of 8, and the other less than 100 8,. Particles observed were spheroid, curved cylinder, and round and polygonal platelet forms. Koppe ( S E ) used the petrological components to correlate beds of lowand medium-volatile bituminous coals of Pennsylvania. An accumulation of test data from a number of bench-scale coal testing procedures i s required to predict the quality of coke that will result on carbonization of a coal. De Sieghardt, Riva, and Harris ( I I E )rated coal petrography one of the most informative of these procedures. Cameron and Botham (4E) used the distribution of fusinitic constituents of a coal to explain the abnormal coke produced. Ettinger, et al., ( 6 E ) have suggested t h a t blowouts might be anticipated in coal beds having layers or lenses of fusinite. Their studies show t h a t all ranks of fusinite are capable of much more rapid sorption of COz and CHI than vitrinites. Benedict and Berry ( S E ) studied a wide range of bituminous coals. Reflectance measurements can be used (1) to

determine carbonization products accurately, (2) to obtain the heating value and sp gr of the resulting gases, (3) to determine the free-swelling index and the calorific value of coals, (4) to classify coals for certain combustion uses, ( 5 ) to monitor oxidation tendencies of coals, and (6) to subdivide coals in certain areas of the present classification of coals according to rank. Coking Processes and Coke Testing. COKING. The dwindling sources of prime coking coals and the increased efficiency in blast furnace operation have incited researchers to develop coke v i t h definite specifications from less desirable coking coals. Three new developments have been made in the U.S.S.R. in the coking processes. Taits, Speranskaya, and Tyutyunnikov (S4F) reported on (1) semicoking and briquetting the product, with or without a binder, followed by thermal treatment a t loiv temperature, (2) continuous coking by separating the process into stages and determining the coke specifications by the proper treatment in the plastic stage, and (3) producing coke from briquetted coal. Ortuglio and Walters (22F) made a statistical study of the results of laboratory coking tests made in 13- and 18-inch (34- and 46-cm) retorts. Formulas were developed to convert the results from the 13-inch retort to the same basis as results from the 18-inch retort. A scheme of analysis of the liquid and gaseous products from various gasification and carbonization processes was presented by Pichler, Hennenberger, and Schwarz (24F). Approximately 1000 compounds were detected and 470 were identified. Hocman ( I O F ) developed an equation to calculate the yield of dry coke, total gas, carbonization tar, CsHa, "8, water, and overall loss from the ash, volatile matter, moisture of the coal charge, and the coking chamber temperature. -1ccording to Kunc ( 1 4 F ) the cokability of a coal can be determined rapidly from the elasticity index. The index is defined as a measure of the ability of the plastic coal mass t o form a thin film surface. A relationship between elasticity index and dilatation was calculated. Stankevich (SBF) used the distribution of the micro-components of coals charged into the coke oven to improve a method to predict the quality of the resulting coke. Nikolaev, et al., (20F) reported the necessity for laboratory testing of all coals used in making up a coal charge to produce coke of uniform quality. X fluidized-bed laboratory furnace and a test procedure were developed by Chowdhury and Banerjee (68') to measure the effect of preheating coal on the resulting coke. A reduction in VOL. 41,NO. 5, APRIL 1969

coking time resulted. PLASTICITY. Chernyshov, Elenskii, and Donkov (5F) have used t h e three zones of the plastic layer t o determine additivity of the plastic properties of coal mixtures having different plastic properties. Shapiro, et al., (SOF) determined the effect of the moisture in the coal test sample during the plasticity determination. The microscope was used by de Vries and Bokhoven (3727) t o observe the pore formation, rate of degasification, and dilatation of coal on coking S p e c i a l a p p a r a t u s was u s e d b y Biryukov (SF) and Nesterenko and Biryukov ( I 9 F ) to separate the fluid or plastic mass resulting from heating coal in the absence of air. Geguchadze (88')designed apparatus and developed a method t o determine fluidity, rate of destruction, and degree of slyelling. A 30-gram sample is heated rapidly (80-85 "C/min); the rate of heating and change in volume are registered. The method was proposed for monitoring the plastic state during continuous coking. Lightman, Street, and Weight ( 1 5 F ) studied the behavior of a coal particle on heating in the British Standard swelling test and in pulverized-fuel flame. The British swelling index procedure was not suitable for determining the behavior of a particle during combustion. Loboda, et al., ( I 6 F ) showed t h a t the dynamics of swelling are very sensitive t o changes in the properties of individual coals. This swelling sensitivity was measured with a specially designed dilatometer. These results and other coal properties mere used to predict the physical a n d mechanical properties produced in coking. F u ( 7 F ) found the thickness of the plastic layer inadequate for properly evaluating the cokability of a coal. It was shown t h a t t h e Audibert-Xrnu dilatometer and the Gieseler plastometer test results mere better indicators. COKE TESTING.The trend to use smaller coke in blast furnaces has made i t necessary to modify t h e present standard method or to develop a new one for testing t h e fraction of coke passing a %inch (50.8-mm) and retained on I-inch (25.4-mm) squaremesh sieve. The sizes of the coke pieces for the present standard are 3 inches (76.1 mm) by 2 inches (50.8 mm). Price and Kuchta ( 2 5 F ) developed a tumbler test for small coke. It was proposed t h a t the number of revolutions of the drum for small coke be reduced to to W of that used in the standard tumbler test. Ghatak (9F) conducted tests t o correlate the results of the Micum and Breslau indices. The following two equations were proposed : Micum index = 0.819 X Breslau index $- 9.97 (correlation coeff. 0.894) for 312

T h e high t e m p e r a t u r e testing of metallurgical coke was carried out a t the British Coke Research Association (BCRA) station ( 2 F ) . The drum test was made a t 20, 700, 900, 1100, 1300, and 1500 "C. It was indicated t h a t the strength increased and abradability decreased a t 700 "C. At about 1300 "C all samples showed a decrease in strength and abradability. It was concluded t h a t t h e high-temperature strength could not be predicted from tests made a t room temperature. Rammler, Flachsbart, and Jakob (26F) conducted tumbler tests of lignite coke a t 600, 800, and 1000 "C in a drum of 500 mm diameter and length. The resistance to abrasion is given in percentage for 20-, 30-, and 40-mm sizes. REACTIVITY.The general procedure for determining the reactivity of coke is to pass CO, a t a specified rate through a tube filled with coke of a specified size consist and temperature. Reactivity is the rate of reaction between the C O z and the carbon of the coke. The many variables mere researched by the following: Kessler and Dockalova ( I d F ) , Oekstad ( 2 I F ) , Bruk, et al. ( 4 F ) , Speranskaya and Nevodnik ( S I F ) , and Agroskin and Svyatets ( I F ) . SURFACE AREA. The surface area of the test sample for reactivity is one of the many variables that influences the final results. Tada ( S S F ) and T'olkov and Komskaya ( S 8 F ) measured the surface areas by several different methods. SPECIFICRESISTANCE. The measurement of specific resistance or electrical conductance of coke is affected by such variables as particle size, compaction or porosity, pressure, moisture content, temperature of coking, and voltage input. Researchers Hoy and hIaehre (113')) Mosoczi ( f 8 F ) , Ouchi ( 2 S F ) , Schmeiser (28F), Thiele, Gruson, and Scheidig ( % F ) , and Tonkonogov and T'eksler ( S 6 F ) have worked on these factors. DEKSITY. Porosity, which is estimated by making true and apparent density measurements, is of considerable importance in the use of the coke. The true density is usually determined in a pycnometer with water or MeOH, using a very finely pulverized sample of the coke. Determining the apparent density is more difficult. Dry, weighed coke pieces can be covered with a thin coat of paraffin to keep water from entering the pores and then are weighed in water. The other method is to allow the dry pores of weighed sample to fill with water before removing from the water, allowing excess run off, and reweighing to deduct the weight of water retained in the coke. Some of the more important work on this subject has

been done by Rammler et al. (d?'F), Kijewska ( I S F ) , and Medek ( I 7 P ) . Shabo (29F) microscopically determined the specific gravity of coal, coke, and related materials. Liquids of different densities were used with only a very few particles of sample. Inorganic Matter in Coal and Coal Ash. Some confusion has resulted from the improper use of the terms "mineral matter" and "ash content" of coals. The mineral matter content of coal can be more than, less than, or equal to the ash content, because it depends on the minerals in the coal and on t h e extent of alteration of the minerals owing t o the heat required to burn out the carbonaceous matter. A number of formulas have been proposed t o estimate the mineral matter from the ash content. The variation in composition of the mineral matter is too great to obtain one formula t h a t would be satisfactory for all coals. Many testing techniques have been developed for the determination of mineral matter. M I N E R A LMATTER. F r i e d e l a n d Queiser (ICG) used a combination of coal petrography and absorption bands of minerals of the infrared spectra for the positive identification of a number of minerals and certain organic structures. The I R spectra was used by Estep, Kovach, and Karr (l2G) to determine quartz, calcite, gypsum, pyrite, and kaolite in coals. The ash obtained at 400 "C was used by Patko (28G) to identify minerals in coal by wet chemical, derivatographic, X-ray diffraction, and microscopic methods. X-ray analyses of coal were made by Chursina a n d Vdovenko (9G) a n d Maruyama and Kobayashi (2SG) to determine essentially the same minerals in coal. Kanjilal, et al., (18G) examined a range of different rank coals for mineral matter. Although a variety of analytical methods were used to derive formulas to estimate the mineral matter, i t was not possible to get one formula t h a t would be applicable to all ranks of coals. Berman and Ergun ('7G) used X-ray fluorescence to determine all elements n.ith atomic numbers of 12 (Mg) and higher in coal. The coal must be ground to less than 2 microns to obtain satisfactory results. ASH ANALYSIS.Zink, Tashington, and Peterson (48G) developed a spectrochemical scheme of coal ash analysis for six of the major elements. A spectrophotometric method for the determination of TiO,, SiOz, Al2O3,and F e z 0 8contents of coal ash was used by Novitskii, Kuleshova, a n d Ivanova (24G). Methods are given to prevent interference by other elements. Boar and Sullivan (6G) used atomic absorption to determine the Ca in a n HC1 extract of brown coal. ,1 complexometric titration method was used by Fedorovskaya, Kazakova,

and Surina (1SG) to determine the ferric iron content of solid fuel ash. Odnopozova (26G) described a titrimetric method for determining SiO, in coal ash. The Si is taken into solution in the presence of fluorides in strong acid solution and forms with I 200 grams Be/kni*/ month and a concentration in the atmosphere of 10-4 gram/m3. K o r k by Razdorozhynyi (34G) s h o w that Be and V are associated with the organic portion of coal. BOROX,Timofeev, et al., (44G) postulated t h a t the considerably higher concentration of boron in coal than in

the lithosphere indicates t h a t coal has concentrated the element. It was also shown t h a t the boron is associated with the organic matter, and evidence was presented t h a t sea water had enriched some deposits. CHLORINE. Chlorine determination using the 0-flask method was very rapid for Ratcliffe and Young (SSG). After combustion, the chloride was titrated with AgXOs potentiometrically. Daybell (10G) presented data to disprove the idea t h a t the ratio of Na to C1 was constant, and t h a t C1 content was not a good measure of the boiler-fouling property of coal. FLUORINE.A spectrophotometric method for the determination of fluorine in coal was reported by Abernethy and Gibson ( 1G ) . The fluorine content coals ranged from of a series of 83 U.S. 0.001 t o 0.019%. GERMAKIUM A N D GALLIUM.Colorimetric analyses of six coal seams for Ge and Ga were made by Inagaki (15 G ) . The Ga was uniform in the bed but the Ge was in a higher concentration a t the top and bottom of the seam. Smolina, et al., (@G) found as much as 5.8 grams/ton Ga, and 39 grams/ton Ge in brown coal. It mas indicated that by density separations of the coal, 40% of the Ge and 65% of the Ga was in the fractions heavier than 1.55 density. GERJISNIU~~. Chemical methods for the determination of Ge in coal were reported by Wang (45G) and Sendu1’skaya, Shpirt, and Yurovskii (S9G). Spectrographic methods were used by Turulina and Zakhariya (43G), Puzanova and Perkova ( S I G ) ,Arnautov (SG),Banerjee, e t a l . , (5G), andLebedeva and Lyakh (22G) to determine the Ge in coal or coal ash. Variations of applications are given. A gas chromatograph was used by Sazonov, et al., (37G) t o determine Ge in coal. The Ge was chlorinated and the GeC14was absorbed on active carbon AR-3 and released by heating the C in a stream of dry nitrogen. Prasad, et al., (29G) were able to extract most of the Ge from fly ash by hydrochlorination. Chlorination gave a better recovery of the Ge but it mas contaminated with too many undesirable volatile products. The minimum Ge concentration in the ash of a lo^ ash coal is indicative t h a t the Ge is associated with the coal material according to Yurovskii, et al. (47G). This work shows that the distribution of Ge on combustion is related to the type of combustion equipment and is not related to coal type. Laminar and cyclone type combustion removes more Ge from ash than by pulverized fuel combustion. Khrisanfoya, Losev, and Soboleva (2OG) found that oxidized coal contained more Ge than fresh coal. Work by Admakin and Vnukov (2G) indicated that some Ge was in all the macerals but t h a t “gelified” mass had

higher contents. Ryabchenko and Lisin (S2G) determined the chemical and physical properties of density fractions of coal as related to Ge compounds, confirming the idea by other workers that the Ge is associated with carbon. Vitrain contains more Ge than the other niacerals. Bonding was indicated to be OGeC. Several forms in which Ge occurs in coal are presented by Saprykin (S6G), Shpirt, Yurovskii, and Sendu1’skaya (4OG) followed the various forms of Ge compounds and their behavior during high-temperature coal oxidation. MERCURY.A description of Hg occurrence in the ranks of coals and structures of the beds was given by Dvornikov (11G). Pakter, et al., (27G) reported on a method of reclaiming Hg from the coal. The distribution of Hg and the form of occurrence was given by Karasik, et al. ( I 9 G ) . MOLYBDENUM. A photometric method for the determination of 110 in solid fuels \vas described by Bekyarova, Khristova, and Ruschev (8G). Ash obtained a t 500 “ C i s fused with KaOH, dissolved in HC1, and filtered. The filtrate is treated n i t h K rhodanide and thiocarbamide, the colored complex is extracted with BuO;lc, and the hIo determined. The h90 content of coal must be considered in the catalytic gasification or hydrogenation of coal. PHOSPHORUS. Asthana ( 4 G ) described a new method for the determination of P in coal. The coal is wet-ashed n i t h H S 0 3 and solid KC104. When oxidation is complete the coloration from molybdenum blue is measured spectrophotometrically. CRANIUM. Jedlvab (17G) reported that the mineragraphic and autoradiographic study of coals indicates that U mineralization was superimposed. Coals free of inclusions and fractures are lorn in radioactivity. ZINC. Weaver (46G) described a method of determining Zn in coal ash with dithizone and Zincon, plus a solvent extraction and spectrophotometric finish. Standard Methods. Standard methods of testing probably appear t o the layman and the tyro as a terse accumulation of strange words, copiously adulterated with abbreviations. However, these methods for which definitions and abbreviation codes are usually provided, are special forms of communication. The terseness is the result of refinement and special wording for legal acceptance. Standard methods are used by large corporations, professions, and political entities in order that discussions and transactions can be carried on in a common language. I n the early stages of development of a standard the “what” and “how” of a series of operations is specified. I n the refinement that comes with after extended use, the standard is refined VOL. 41, NO. 5, APRIL 1969

such t h a t only the “what” must usually be given. Because a standard method is a tool t o accomplish an act, i t should remain only as long as i t serves the purpose for which i t was developed. It should be periodically reapproved, revised, amended, and abolished as the need dictates. The U.S. Bureau of Mines was very active in the development and standardization of test methods for coal evaluation, and has retained a considerable amount of information that is helpful i n t r a i n i n g technicians. Oppelt’s ( S H ) compilation of Bureau of Mines methods is one of the most comprehensive standards on analyzing and testing coal and coke. Rees (4H)has drawn on his many years of experience with development, standardization, and application of test procedures in the evaluation of coals and coke to describe the chemical and physical uses and the limitations of coal analysis procedures. The review of standard methods is emphasized by Shipley ( 5 H ) in his report on the continuing review and amendments of the 16 parts of the British Standard 1016 on coal and coke. NA~IONA STANDARDS. L The American Society for T e s t i n g a n d M a t e r i a l s (ASTRI) ( 2 H ) is the chief coordinator of the development and standardization of the test procedures for coal and coke in Xorth America. The ASTM Committee D-5 on Coal and Coke, composed of almost equal membership of producers, consumers, and those with general interest in coal, approves the need for new standards and the revisions of existing standards, and recommends the withdrawal of obsolete standards. It also recommends t h a t some of the standards should be approved b y t h e U n i t e d S t a t e s of =Imerica Standards Institute (USASI) as national standards in international participation. Table I lists present ASTM standards and specifications. INTERNATIONAL STASDARDS. The International Organization for Standardization (ISO) ( 2 H ) through its Technical Committee 27 on Solid Mineral Fuels has advanced 33 standard test procedures and specifications to the IS0 recommendation stage, and 16 to I S 0 Draft Recommendation status. Table I1 gives the title, number, and status of each standard. Miscellaneous. Kreulen (131) explored the possibility of a single classification system of coals ranging from hard coal t o and including peat. H e started the system with a rank concept and ended i t with information on aromaticity, ring condensation index, and molecular size of the mean structural unit. The same interest was shown by Zabavin, et al., (341) in developing a system of classification including hard 314 R

and brown coals. Parameters used in the system are (1) the yield of mater and C o n from coal at 350 “C, and (2) the yield of products of hydrolytic cleavage by means of 5% KOH in alcohol-pyridine mixture. Vdovenko and Gulak (301) determined the fusibility of ash using the high-temperature heating microscope. Results were in close agreement with those by the standard cone method. Ziegenhardt (351) reported on the factors affecting the ash-melting behavior of salt coals. The study is based on the acidic and basic constituents of the ash. According to work by Szulakowski (261), finely divided SiO, reduced the melting point of coal ash. Yao (321) correlated the chemical composition of coal ash with the fusibility of ash. Shibaoka (241) used the microscope to determine the behavior of the individual particles of ash on heating and to predict the melting point and viscosity of the ash. The viscosity characteristics of molten coal ash mere measured by Vdovenko and Ershina (291) using a n EVS-4 self-exciting electrovibrational viscosimeter. The behavior mas correlated Fvith A1203,SiO,, CaO, and F e 2 0 3contents. Kirsch (111) reported the effects of acidic and basic constituents on the viscosity of coal ashes. H e found t h a t sulfates, P, Ti, and alkalies have only a small effect. The effects of the several petrographic components of a coal on the Hardgrove grindability index (HI) were determined by Marayama (191). The HI of vitrite is equal to or slightly higher than clarite, and t h a t of durite is lower than ritrite and clarite. He (201) also reported on the effect of the various minerals and size of particles of minerals on the HI. Dockter, Belter, and Ellman (21) determined the pulverizing characteristics of lignite a t various stages of drying. There was no correlation between the Hardgrove grindability index and the pulverizing capacity of a conical ball mill. Kagan, Belosel’skii, and Sorokin (91) determined the grindability index of petroleum coke. Although they found t h a t the index mas half t h a t of anthracite, the power consumption was 1.5 times t h a t required for the anthracite. The moisture-holding-capacity determination was developed to evaluate the lower rank bituminous, sub-bituminous, and lignitic coals. The principle classifications systems specify this testing method in order t o arrive a t a moist, mineral-matter-free Btu. This Btu is used a s a classification p a r a m e t e r . Edwards (31) examined a number of variations of the basic method and reaffirmed the suitability of K2SOato provide the necessary relative humidity of 96% at 30 “C. H e preferred the rapid methods to the I S 0 standard method. ( I t should be noted that the rapid method is limited to “hard” coals

and can be used t o classify only a small group of bituminous coals from highvolatile A bituminous coals through the sub-bituminous A groups.) Kozko, et al., (121) described a modification of the all-purpose method to accelerate the testing. The test sample, after the saturation with water, is pressed between filter papers t o remove the major portion of the excess moisture. Kubant and Flum (141) modified the pycnometer method for the specific gravity of solid fuels. They made a correction for the contraction in volume of the methyl alcohol when mixed with the moisture in the coal. Juentgen and Schwuger (81) determined the density and porosity of coal, coke, and miscellaneous substances using mercury porosimetry. The sizes of the pores are given on graphs. Fujii and Tsuboi (51) determined helium densities of a number of coals. It was shown that the hydrogen contents of Japanese and foreign coals were distinctly different. Parish (221) measured the abrasiveness of lom-ash coals. The wear due t o coal was parabolically related t o the volatile matter of the coal, and was less than t h a t of the more abrasive mineral constituents. The wear rate increased rapidly as the Hardgrove grindability index decreased below 70. Goddard and Duzy (61) determined the abrasiveness of solid fuels using a radiochemical method. The balls of a ball-race mill were i r r a d i a t e d a n d t h e wear was measured in the pulverized product of the mill. A comparison of the laboratory tests and actual field wear is given. The experimental wear data was used in mill design and to predict wear rates of milling equipment. Bayakhunov and Vdovenko (11) studied the abrasiveness of coal ash. A laboratory method was developed to predict the wear rates of heated surfaces by ashes. Ashes of similar chemical compositions gave different wear indices owing to the diff erent mineral properties. English and Hiorns (41)measured specific fracture energy. Breakage of a solid is accompanied by the formation of a new surface and characterized by a certain energy per unit area. The measurement of this energy may be used in the design of a pulverizer. Thiele (2’71) described in detail a laboratory procedure for the measurement of the specific heat of brown coal. Kirov (101) determined the specific heats of moisture, coke, hydrocarbons, liquids, gases, and volatile components of coal for temperatures between 0 and 1000 “C. From these data, a formula was derived to calculate the specific heat of coal. Moisture and rate loss during volatilization most affected the calculated results. Surface area or specific surface measurements of coals m-ere made by Thomas,

Benson and Hieftje ( H I ) ,Spencer and Bond (251),and Lavrik and Loskutova (171). Similar methods were used with some modifications of application and interpretation of results. Differential thermal analyses (DTA) of bituminous coals were made b y Yoshimura and Mitsui (331) and H. Luther, et al., (181). Yoshimura noted an endothermic change a t 150 "C which was thought to be due to the evaporation of water. Another change a t 400500 "C was concluded to be the result of evaporation of volatile matter and the degradation of the coal. Luther examined the experimental factors and concluded t h a t differences in the curves on carbonization for different ranks of coal were due to physical rather than chemical changes. The flotation process in coal preparation appeared to benefit from the salt content of mine water according to Laskowski a n d Mielecki (161) and Hoffmann and Pfeiffer (71). The salt adversely affected the sieving processes as described by Hoffmann. Vlasova (311) described the effects t h a t oxygen groups in coal, polar and nonpolar reagents, and free radicals have on the flotation of coal. Kun and SzaboPelsoczi (151) evaluated activators and depressants of pyrite in flotation processes. Depressants CaO and S a C N , collectors E t and Bu xanthates, and a c t i v a t o r s C u S 0 4 a n d N a l S were described. The plastic deformation of coal under compression was studied by Parish (211). An analysis of the compression of a cube of coal between platens suggests t h a t the type of failure is dependent on cube size and on several physical properties of coal that are rank dependent. Shnaper and Zinchuk (231) described in detail the apparatus and procedure for obtaining optimum technological parameters during the extraction of wax from brown coal. GASEOUS FUELS

selected these methods because of the simple testing and analytical procedures. Determination limits of hydrogen sulfide in natural gas by the French, German, and British lead acetate tests were found to give divergent results. Williams and Lom (14L) suggest t h a t the maximum acceptable concentration be expressed by a numerical limit rather t h a n for a q u a l i t a t i v e p r o c e d u r e . Leidnitz ( 6 L ) determined hydrogen sulfide in coke oven gas by the test tube method using a lead acetate reagent, and compared results with those made with the cadmium acetate method. Katoh ( 5 L ) has proposed a gas chromatographic method of determining low concentrations of H2S in a gas. The gas is reacted with PbS, the PbS is reacted with HC1, and the resultant gas is analyzed on a p,pJ-oxydipropionitrate column a t room temperature. Several methods of determining H 2 S have been patented. I n the method proposed by Fails (4L),H2Sreacts with a metal in a n aqueous solution, forming a n insoluble precipitate; the H+ concentration is then determined. Risk and 3lurray (1OL)catalytically oxidized gaseous H 2 S to SO2 with F e filings a t 200-250 "C, and compared the Ulabsorption a t ~ 2 8 5 A 0 with t h a t of an unoxidized sample.
