Study on Mercury Species in Coal and Pyrolysis-Based Mercury Removal before Utilization. [PDF]
ACS Omega, 2020 Coal-fired mercury (Hg) pollution control is an important global environmental context. Eight coal samples from different coal fields in China were used to investigate Hg species and the Hg removal effects under different pyrolysis conditions in the presence of nitrogen. These conditions included temperature, particle size, and residence time.
