Relationship Between the Nanopore Structure and Basic Characteristics of Coal with the Protogenetic CO Content.

In the prediction and forecasting of spontaneous coal combustion, protogenetic CO produced in the process of coal oxidation is used as the indicator gas, but the sources of CO gas in coal seams are extensive. Protogenetic CO in coal seams often interferes with predictions of spontaneous coal combustion. To predict the content of protogenetic CO gas in coal seams and its emission, this study established an experimental system of protogenetic CO content and emission in coal seams.

Experimental Study on the Physisorption Characteristics of O in Coal Powder are Effected by Coal Nanopore Structure.

Coal is a porous medium. Oxygen molecules in the air penetrate through the pores of coal and are adsorbed on the coal surface. Low-temperature oxidation of coal then occurs, by which coal spontaneous combustion is promoted.
