After the desulfurization, the pyritic sulfur content of coal decreased significantly from 53.6% to 39.2%, while the sulfate sulfur content increased from 17.3% to 34.6%. Only a small amount of thiophene sulfur(20.1–16.1%) was removed. Some sulfur-containing components were oxidized to sulfate sulfur. Under the optimum conditions, the ash content decreased, while the volatile content increased. The calorific value of coal slightly decreased with a slight variation in the amplitudes. The overall structure of coal did not change significantly based on Fourier transform infrared(FTIR) spectral analyses. Thus, the desulfurization of coal with microwave irradiation in a Na OH solution did not significantly change the properties of coal.展开更多
