Coal structure and reactivity changes induced by chemical demineralisation

The aim of this work was to determine the influence that an advanced demineralisation procedure has on the combustion characteristics of coal. A high-volatile bituminous coal with 6.2% ash content was treated in a mixture of hydrofluoric and fluorosilicic acids (HF/H2SiF6). Nitric acid was used eith...
