Therefore, the consulting project "Technical Revolution in Ecological and Efficient Coal Mining and Utilization & Intelligence and Diverse Coordination of Coal-based Energy System," initiated by Chinese Academy of Engineering, puts forward three stages(3.0, 4.0 and 5.0) of China's coal industry development strategy. Aimed at "reduced staff,ultra-low ecological damage, and emission level near to natural gas," breakthroughs should be achieved in the following three key technologies during the China Coal Industry 3.0 stage(2016–2025): including intelligent coal mining, ecological mining, ultra-low emission and environmental protection. This paper focuses on the development trends of the China Coal Industry 3.0 and its support for China Coal Industry 4.0 and 5.0 is analyzed and prospected as well, which may offer technical assistance and strategy orientation for realizing the transformation from traditional coal energy to clean energy.展开更多

Monte-Carlo method is shown to be superior to the traditional volumetric method with constant parameters in the calculation of CBM resources. The focus of the article is to introduce the main algorithm and the realization of functions estimated by Monte-Carlo method, including selection of parameters, determination of distribution function, generation of pseudo-random numbers, and evaluation of the parameters corresponding to pseudo-random numbers. A specified software on the basis of Monte-Carlo method is developed using Visual C++ for the assessment of the CBM resources.

Detailed study of REE geochemistry shows that the ?REE of most coals studied in this paper is in a normal range between 30×10?6 and 80×10?6 with a mean of 56×10?6. The REE in the Taiyuan Formation in the northern part of North China are much richer than those in the southern part. This is due to the shorter distance to the source area in the north. Moreover, the ?REE is in positive correlation to coal ash, especially closely related to the content of clay minerals <2 μm in size. This reveals that most REE were carried by terrigenous clastic materials, especially fine clay minerals. In the coals the light REE (LREE) are much richer than the heavy REE (HREE), and the LREE/HREE ratio in coals generally varies from 2 to 8. The LREE/HREE ratio of high-ash, low-sulphur coals is higher than that of low-ash, high-sulphur coals, and is even higher in the roof and floor rocks, reaching 12 with the highest (up to 21) in pyrite concretions, which shows that the HREE have a stronger affinity to organic matter in a reducing environment influenced by seawater. Furthermore, Eu is generally depleted in coals. The REE chondrite-normalized distribution patterns are very similar in coals of the whole of North China. From the REE geochemical characteristics it can be concluded that during the formation of Late Palaeozoic Carboniferous-Permian coals in North China, the supply of terrigeneous materials remained quite stable. The ?REE in low-ash, high-sulphur coals is relatively low and the REE are mainly carried by fine-grained minerals and organic matter and a certain percentage of REE are adsorbed by organic matter; while the ?REE in high-ash, low-sulphur coals is higher and the REE are mainly present in detritus. The ?REE of magmatism-influenced coals is the highest, which suggests that the introduction of magmatic substances may increase the ?REE, thus causing the REE distribution patterns to show an abnormal feature. Moreover, some harmful elements such as U, W and As usually increase when the coals are influenced by magmatism.展开更多

Up to now more than 56 coal fires spots were distin-guished. They mainly locate in West-North of China, North of China and East-North of China. About millions of tons of coal have been burned in fires every year. Xinjiang Autonomy is the most serious region in coal fires as it has 38 coal fires spots and about 6.85 million tons of coal was burned every year. Coal fires in China ignited by wildfires, spontaneous combustion and human being during mining activities. These fires have re-leased about 0.9 million tons of gasses (including CO, CO2, SO2, NO2 CH4, CO2, H2S etc.) into the atmosphere every year, most of which are brought to the east by wind and result-ing more heavier air pollution in northern China.展开更多

At the same time, the authors broadly illustrate how the components of natural-social-economic system act in the coal area, so as to probe the ways to reduce vulnerability more effectively, such as preferential national policy and so on.

In this paper, Rock\|Eval, Py\|GC and simulation experiment via an open\|system were used to study the hydrocarbon\|generating potential, hydrocarbon composition, and hydrocarbon\|generating model of barkinite\|rich coals from the Shuicheng coal field of Guizhou Province, Southwest China. The results show that barkinite\|rich coals have high hydrocarbon\|generating potential, with S\-1+S\-2 being 211-311mg/g, and can produce large amounts of hydrocarbon at the high\|maturity stage, mostly within the temperature range of 420-450℃ (corresponding to VR\-0 1.1-1.5%); barkinite\|rich coal is one of the better oil sources and light hydrocarbon and wet gas are the major hydrocarbon components, which account for 45% and 33% of the total hydrocarbons, respectively. These characteristics are of importance for exploring oil and gas resources in the Late Permian Longtan Formation coals, Southwest China.\;展开更多

Because of the geological background and the diversity of basin types, such as isochronisms of coal seams and recognition of key sequence boundaries, it is rare to summarize and correlate sequence structure and framework. The types and recognition characteristics of the sequence boundaries of the Jurassic coal measures are revealed by comparing climatic characteristics, structural styles and the base level cycle. A total of five third-order sequences and 15 systems tracts have been subdivided and the sequence stratigraphic framework has been reconstructed confirming that the thick coals accumulated in the late stage of transgression system tracts of sequence I (SQ I) and sequence III (SQ III). This idea is of important academic significance for instructing coal resources exploration, and enhancing geological effects of prospecting engineering. It is also of practical significance for guaranteeing construction of the large-scale coal production base in northwestern China, accelerating the westward development of the coal industry stratagem.展开更多

The arithmetic average value of mercury content in coals is 0.158 mg/kg, and the mercury content shows considerable positive correlation with ashes in coals. The mercury content in fly ash is increased as the particle diameter of fly ash decrease. After combustion, 23.1—26.9 percent of mercury in coals enters fly ash,and 56.3—69.7 percent of mercury escapes into atmosphere. We estimated that the amount of mercury in raw coals produced in the Northeast of China and the east Inner Mongolia was 30.9 tons in the whole year and the amount emitted into atmosphere was 20 30 tons in 1990.展开更多

The mercury distribution of the coal derived gas has three features: The first is that mercury content of coal derived gas is generally much higher than that of oil derived gas, the second is that the coal derived gases from different fields vary widely in mercury content, the third is that the mercury content in coal derived gas increases with the increase of production layer depth. Mercury in coal derived natural gas mainly originates from the source rock. Besides three evidences, namely, coal derived gas mercury content is much higher than that of oil derived gas, mercury content of gas with high carbon dioxide content decreases with the increase of carbon dioxide content, and the coal bearing strata have the material base to generate natural gas with high mercury content, the pyrolysis experiment of two coal samples show that coal can produce natural gas with high mercury content during the process of thermal evolution. The mercury content of coal derived natural gas is controlled mainly by the temperature of source rock and the sulfur environment of reservoir. According to lithospheric material cycling process and oil-gas formation process, the formation of mercury in coal derived gas can be divided into four stages, transportation and deposition, shallow burial, deep burial, and preservation and destruction.展开更多

Its stratigraphic pattern shows that several isotopic shifts are apparent, and the large δ13C negative shifts (approximately 2.5 to 3.0 %%) occurred during the Stephanian, Artinskian and Kazanian are observed in three Permo-Carboniferous coalfields. Those negative shifts are neither related to the coal rank and coal macerals, nor caused by the variety of peat-forming plants. The general decrease in the δ13C values of the Stephanian, Artinskian and Kazanian coals is consistent with an overall decrease in the δ13C values of ambient atmospheric CO2 and/or a relative increase in atmospheric Pco2 during the coal-forming periods. Therefore the authors postulate that the oxidation of peat, and the δ13C-depleted CO2 flux into the atmosphere during the above stages may have contributed to coeval palaeoclimatic warming by way of the greenhouse effect.展开更多

V in stone coal mainly exists in three oxidation states: 7.84% V(III), 72.08% V(IV) and 20.08% V(V). The change and distribution of valency during oxidizing roasting shows that organic matter in the coal determines the valency at low temperatures. At about 450°C, V(III) is completely oxidized to V(IV); above 500°C, temperature is the most important factor for the oxidation of V. At 700-1000°C, 92% of V in the coal has been oxidized to V(V). At higher temperature, no more oxidation of V takes place, equilibrium being established. The role of NaCl in the recovery of V2O5 from the coal is discussed. The best conditions for roasting are an oxidation-chlorination atmosphere, temperature 800°C for 30 minutes, ore:NaCl = 100:10, ηroast reaching 90%.展开更多

With XRFS (X-ray fluorescence spectrometry), the geochemical composition of its combustion residues from Tianjiaan Power Plant and Luohe Power Plant was analyzed. In addition, the electron microprobe was employed to study the chemical composition of some fly ashes and bottom ashes. Compared with those of the coals around the world, most trace elements of the Huainan coal are characterized by a normal abundance. Like most coals worldwide, the elements Se, S, As, Sb, Br, U and Cl are enriched in Huainan coal according to dark's value, while the other elements tend to be diluted. The large fluctuation in the contents of trace elements in this kind of coal demonstrates great differences in coal seams. On the other hand, the contents of these elements are very similar in different bottom and fly ash samples. The elements with low organic affinity tend to concentrate in fly and bottom ash than in coal, especially those elements associated with Fe. However, the elements with strong organic affinity tend to be volatile during the combustion. Moreover, the abundance of the elements in fly ash and bottom ash changes with different densities and with different particle sizes. The bottom and fly ashes consist of glass, lime, mullite, coal residues and ferrite minerals. Some residual chars contain higher contents of volatile elements, such as S, P, Cl and As, indicating that the ash containing more residual chars has a strong adsorption of some hazardous elements, suggesting a possible utilization of power plant ash in the field of water cleaning.展开更多

The bottom and fly ashes consist of glass, lime, mullite, coal residues and ferrite minerals. Some residual chars contain higher contents of volatile elements, such as S, P, Cl and As, indicating that the ash containing more residual chars has a strong adsorption of some hazardous elements, suggesting a possible utilization of power plant ash in the field of water cleaning.
