Abstract

A thermogravimetric study of vitrinites of bituminous coals of different metamorphic stages was carried out in the oxidizing medium. It was demonstrated that with increasing the metamorphic grade of vitrinites, the temperature range of the oxidation process rose, while the maximum decomposition rates were shifted to higher temperature region. A strong correlation of the ignition temperature of vitrinites and organic (Сdaf) and aromatic (Сar) carbon content therein, and also of vitrinite reflectance values (Ro,r) and volatile matter yield (Vdaf) was revealed.
