Abstract:

In order to study the thermodynamic and kinetic characteristics of the interaction between coal and gas, the isothermal adsorption tests of coal at 298, 308, 318, 328 and 338 K were carried out. In this paper, the thermodynamic parameters and adsorption kinetic characteristics of coal gas adsorption under temperatures effect were analyzed by using the self-developed coal gas-solid coupling test platform. The results show that with the increase in temperature, the gas adsorption capacity of coal decreases gradually, and the isothermal adsorption curve conforms to the Langmuir type change rule. The isosteric adsorption heat of coal increases with the increase of adsorption capacity, and the variation range is -10.191 to -7.127 kJ/mol. The adsorption of coal gas is an exothermic physical process. The increase in temperature inhibits the adsorption capacity of coal gas, and the limited adsorption heat of coal is -11.369 kJ/mol. The adsorption free energy and adsorption entropy at different temperatures were less than 0, which were -6.958 to -2.452 kJ/mol and -14.085 to -12.607 J/(mol·K), respectively. In the kinetic model fitting, the gas adsorption amount at adsorption equilibrium decreases with the temperature increase, and the adsorption rate constant is positively linear with temperature. The adsorption of coal gas is a dynamic exothermic process. With the increase in temperature, the molecular energy of gas is gradually greater than the adsorption potential energy of coal pores. The adsorbed gas gradually transforms into free gas, and the adsorption capacity of coal gas decreases.
