520 | |a Pyrolysis has profound implications for coal as a raw material to make phase change material (PCM). It is necessary to derive a pyrolysis kinetic model for predicting the yield of volatiles and reaction performance during pyrolysis of coal, which is of significant importance for its thermal processing. The devolatilization of coal is characterized by thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) at different heating rates, and many kinetic models can be achieved by analyzing the TGA data. This work was aimed to find an appropriate model to describe the pyrolysis of coal and took Zhundong coal as an example. Four types of isoconversion kinetic methods, that is, Friedman, Flynn-Wall-Ozawa (FWO), Kissinger-Akahira-Sunose (KAS), Miura-Maki method, and different distributed activation energy models (DAEM) were employed here to fit TGA data for pyrolysis of Zhundong coal. The pre-exponential factors and activation energies obtained from different kinetic models were analyzed. An m-nth-DAEM was developed by considering that m classes of reactions took place with the same pre-exponential factor k0 but different distribution activation energy following logistic distribution or Gaussian distribution. The results showed that the FWO model was better for description of pyrolysis process of Zhundong coal, and the 2-nth-DAEM assuming Gaussian distribution of activation energy gave the best fit for the TGA data of Zhundong coal. The research provides a valuable reference to the development of thermal utilization technology of Zhundong coal. | ||
