Abstract

Simultaneous thermogravimetry-mass spectrometry (TG-MS) was used to investigate the pyrolysis behaviour of coal tar and the instantaneous evolution characteristic of the gaseous products. The result shows that the gaseous releasing product is mostly H2O besides a small quantity of C2H4 under 400°C. It is mostly CH4 and C2H4 in addition to a small quantity of C2H2 between 400-600°C. It is mostly H2, CO, CO2 and a small quantity of C between 600-1000°C. It is in evidence that C3, CO, CO2 release between 1000-1300°C.
