one of the most important methods to produce sponge iron is coal based reduction of iron ore. direct reduction methods based on coal are being improved due to the abundance of coal sources and its lower cost in comparison with natural gas. volatile materials in coal play an important role in the reduction of iron oxides. in this study, noncoking coal with high volatile materials from iran and c...

The ten nations of Southeast Asia, collectively known as ASEAN, emitted 1.65 Gtpa CO2 in 2020, and are among the most vulnerable to climate change, which is partially caused by anthropogenic emission. This paper analyzes history ASEAN energy consumption emission from both fossil renewable energies last two decades. results show that ASEAN’s resources range low moderate, unevenly distributed geo...

The arsenic concentrations in 297 coal samples were collected from the main coal-mines of 26 provinces in China were determined by molybdenum blue coloration method. These samples were collected from coals that vary widely in coal rank and coal-forming periods from the five main coal-bearing regions in China. Arsenic content in Chinese coals range between 0.24 to 71 mg/kg. The mean of the conce...

There are many sources trough which the soil get enriched and contaminated with REEs. The determination of REEs in environmental samples has been limited because of the lack of sensitive analytical techniques. Soil samples were collected from four sites including open cast coal mine, natural coal burning, coal washery and control in the coal field located in Dhanbad, India. Total concentrations...

Coal consumption and carbon dioxide emissions from coal combustion in China are attracting increasing attention worldwide. Between 1990 and 2013, the coal consumption in Shandong Province increased by approximately 5.29 times. Meanwhile, the proportion of coal consumption of Shandong Province to China rose from 7.6% to 10.8%, and to the world, it rose from 1.8% to 5.5%. Identifying the drivers ...

Carbon pricing, such as a carbon tax, is an invisible hand that leads to the construction of sustainable low-carbon society, and precise analysis impact pricing on each sector economy indispensable for its design. In this study, equilibrium price model based 2015 input-output table was used next-generation energy systems (2015 IONGES) effect introduction tax industrial assessed. Based existing ...

To improve the coal permeability and outburst prevention, coal seam water injection and a series of outburst prevention measures were tested in outburst coal mines. These methods have become important technologies used for coal and gas outburst prevention and control by increasing the external moisture of coal or decreasing the stress of coal seam and changing the coal pore structure and gas de...

INTRODUCTION This report presents the results of two trials conducted with the Blast Furnace Granular Coal Injection System at Bethlehem Steel Corporation's Bums Harbor Plant. The trials were conducted using granulated and pulverized high volatile coal from Colorado. The first trial was conducted to quantify the effect that a high volatile western coal, Colorado Oxbow, has on the blast furnace ...

Coal swelling in the presence of water as well as CO2 is a well-known phenomenon, and these may affect the permeability of coal. Quantifying swelling effects is becoming an important issue to verify the suitability of particular coal seams for CO2-enhanced coal bed methane recovery projects. In this report, coal swelling experiments using a visualization method in the CO2 supercritical conditio...
