Coal Geology & Exploration
Objective The in-situ pyrolysis of tar-rich coals stands as a technique whereby coal seams are heated underground to produce tar and gas products. During the in-situ pyrolysis, the injection of heating media and the production of tar and gas are affected by the pore structure and permeability of coal seams. Since pyrolysis of caking tar-rich coals is accompanied by the formation of colloids, the pore structure and permeability of caking tar-rich coals differ from those of non-caking tar-rich coals. Methods Caking tar-rich coals were pyrolyzed at 300, 400, 500, and 600 ℃. During the pyrolysis, the pore parameters of the …

The unique ability of ferroelectrics to generate high voltage under shock loading is limited by electrical breakdown within the shock-compressed ferroelectric material. Breakdown is a hybrid process of initiation and growth. The possible mechanisms of electrical breakdown in ferroelectric films and bulk ceramics subjected to high-pressure shock loading are discussed and experiments designed to elucidate which mechanisms govern breakdown. Gigapascal shock loading experiments were performed on poled Pb0.99(Zr0.95Ti0.05)0.98Nb0.02O3 ferroelectric film specimens in the range of 32-156 μm thickness to determine the dependence of the breakdown field on thickness and …

ANFO is one of the most commonly used explosives in open-pit mining, usually produced by mixing systems on the blast site. One of the problems usually not considered is the moisture”s influence on the stored ammonium nitrate(V). The influence of moisture on fumes and the detonation process has been investigated by placing ammonium nitrate(V) prills in the climatic chamber. In the investigation, the influence was evaluated for ANFO samples which were produced based on the two types of fuel oils. It was concluded that the 3.0% moisture level resulted in the lowest NOx content in both case studies. Further increased …
