Influence of acid treatment on the structure and extraction performance of Xinjiang Hefeng low-rank coal
-
摘要: 对新疆和丰低阶煤样进行酸洗脱灰处理,通过相关表征,分析了脱灰处理对煤样主体结构、石油醚和CS2萃取性能的影响。FT-IR表征表明,煤样经酸洗脱灰处理,结构仅发生了微弱改变,酸洗煤样(AC)仅在1712 cm-1处出现了较弱的原煤样(RC)所没有的羧酸类C=O吸收峰。由TG-DTG表征可知,酸洗使得煤中小分子键断裂,但并未破坏煤样的大分子网络主体结构。以石油醚(PE)和CS2为溶剂对RC和AC两煤样进行常温两级超声萃取的研究表明,AC煤样的PE和CS2萃取率均高于RC煤样,分别从0.16%和0.53%(RC煤样)增加到0.17%和0.64%,且萃取速率也更大,显著降低了煤样的溶剂萃取次数。萃取物的FT-IR和GC-MS分析表明,酸洗处理不仅能有效脱除煤样中的杂原子,且使得煤样CS2萃取物的种类增加。另外,由萃余物TG-DTG结果可知,超声萃取主要是一个物理溶胀过程,并没有破坏煤样的大分子主体结构。Abstract: The acid treatment experiment to remove the inorganic minerals in Xinjiang Hefeng low-rank coal was conducted, and the effects of deashing treatment on the main structure of coal sample and its extraction performance by petroleum ether and CS2 were analyzed by instrumental characterizations. The FT-IR results show that the main structure of the treated coal changes slightly compared with the untreated one. And the acid-washed coal sample (AC) presents a very weak absorption peak at 1712 cm-1 attributed to carboxylic acid (C=O), which could not be observed in the raw coal sample (RC). It can also be seen from TG-DTG characterization that the process of acid treatment results in a cleavage of small molecular bonds in the coal without destroying the macromolecular network structure. The performance of two-stage ultrasonic extraction of RC and AC samples with petroleum ether (PE) and CS2 as solvents proposes that the extraction proportions of PE and CS2 of AC sample are higher than that of RC sample, from 0.16% and 0.53% (RC) to 0.17% and 0.64%, respectively, and the extraction rate of AC sample is larger than that of RC sample, reducing the number of solvent extraction operation significantly.FT-IR and GC-MS analysis of the extracts shows that the acid treatment not only effectively removes the heteroatoms in the coal sample, but also increases the type of CS2 extracts. In addition, from the results of TG-DTG for the residues, it can be noted that the ultrasonic extraction is a physical swelling process, and does not destroy the macromolecular structure of the coal sample.
