Coal and solvent properties and their correlation with extraction yield under mild conditions
E-mail:
Coal solvent extraction is a clean coal technology that involves the extraction of organic matter from coal using solvents. In this study, the effects of various coal and solvent properties on extraction yield were studied and their correlations were observed. Solvent extraction was performed for fifteen coal samples of different ranks with eight solvents under mild conditions. Statistical analyses were then conducted to find correlations between the extraction yields and the coal and solvent characteristics. The extraction yield was strongly correlated with the atomic H/C ratio or volatile matter content. Among the solvent properties, the correlation between the electron donor, acceptor number (DNAN) and yield was confirmed to be high. The results of multiple regression showed that positive correlations were found with the content of volatile matter of coal and polar force, DN-AN of solvent. Whereas negative correlations were found with the Ca/Mg content of coal and dispersion force, hydrogen bonding force of solvent. The regressionequation-calculated value was similar to the experimental value.
