With the increasing requirements for clean and effective utilization, coal swelling pretreatment provides a good theoretical basis for coal molecular structure, application in coal pyrolysis, and liquefaction. Ionic liquids containing magnetic anionic groups were designed, synthesized, and used as solvents to study the effect on swelling pyrolysis performance. Studies have shown magnetism enhancement with the growth of alkyl chains. The growth of the MIL alkyl side chain made the modification effect of coal more obvious, and the swelling degree showed a trend of first increasing and then decreasing with the increase of temperature and time, and at the temperature of 35 °C, the swelling degree is the largest when the modification time is 8 h. Pyrolysis experiments show that magnetic ionic liquid (MIL) pretreatment can significantly reduce the temperature at the maximum weight loss of coal and increase the tar content of pyrolysis, indicating that MIL plays a catalytic cracking role in coal pyrolysis.

This analysis revealed the alterations in the pore structure of large organic molecules in coal during the process of coal pyrolysis. Nine models of macromolecular structures in coals, representing distinct coal ranks, have been built. The research results show that along with the increasing coal rank, the average microporous volume of medium rank coal is 0.

Thermal decomposition (pyrolysis) of coal bottom ash (collected after lignite combustion in coal-fired power plant TEKO-B, Republic of Serbia) was investigated, using the simultaneous TG-DTG techniques in an inert atmosphere, at various heating rates. By using the XRD technique, it was found that the sample (CBA-TB) contains a large amount of anorthite, muscovite, and silica, as well as periclase and hematite, but in a smaller amount. Using a model-free kinetic approach, the complex nature of the process was successfully resolved.

From an economic and environmental perspective, pyrolysis-catalysis is a promising method for converting waste plastics into high-value products. Low-cost catalysts are crucial for the large-scale processing of waste plastics. This study prepared a nickel-based catalyst supported on solid waste coal gangue (CG) using a simple impregnation method and investigated the effect of catalyst composition on the catalytic pyrolysis of polyethylene to produce hydrogen and high-value carbon nanotubes (CNTs).
