Abstract

Abundant coal seams of Miocene age with thickness of up to 4.7 metres occur in Kutai Basin, East Kaliman- tan. Selected coals are analyzed in order to evaluate its coking properties. The coals have bituminous in rank with calorific value of 5,582-8,357 kg/kcal (adb) and vitrinite reflectance of 0.57-0.97%. These selected high rank coals are normally concentrated in high gradient temperature zone or proximity to intrusive body. Vitrinite reflectances of these coals are lower than those of Australian coking coals (1.04-1.06%), but higher than of Indonesian normal coalification coals. Vitrinite is the dominant maceral in coals from Kutai Basin (73-96%), while inertinite and liptinite are only present in small amount, i.e. trace-10.2% and trace-8.2%, respectively. In contrast, vitrinite is lower and inertinite is higher in Australian coking coals, i.e. 64.8- 79.0% and 18.4-31.6%, respectively. Generally, crucible swelling number of Kutai Basin coals is lower than of Australian coking coals. Based on its vitrinite reflectance and calorific values, some of selected high rank coals from Kutai Basin have developed semi coking properties. The enhancement of rank is probably due to the effect of igneous intrusions or high gradient temperature. However, vitrinite content of the coals is higher than of coking coal range. Crucible swelling number of the coal is also too low, except for sample EK 1 and EK 2 which have CSN too much of 6 and 4, respectively. Therefore, the coals are not categorized as prime coking coal, but they can be blended with bituminous inertinite rich coals to make metallurgical coke for blast furnace.

Abstract

Results of proximate analyses indicate that inherent moisture of the upgraded coals decrease signifi- cantly compared to that of the raw coals. Hence, the calorific value of the upgraded coals increases. The ash content of the upgraded coals did not change obviously due to the UBC process which was conducted at low temperature. However, the volatile matter content increase slightly due to the residue plugs over coal pores to prevent re-absorb of moisture. From ultimate analyses, carbon content of the upgraded coals increases, whereas the hydrogen and oxygen contents decrease. The UBC process hardly effects to the sulfur and nitrogen contents. The equilibrium moisture of the upgraded coals was determined by using ASTM Standard method, most of them were less than 9%. The functional group of C-H and C=O of the upgraded coals were slightly less than that of the raw coals. The aromaticity of coal, all of the upgraded coals was increase. The petrography of both the raw and the upgraded coals indicates that the mean vitrinite reflectance was slightly higher in the upgraded coal compared to that of the raw coal. There was no significant quantity and textural differences of maceral in both coals. The specific surface area of the upgraded coals was lower than that of the raw coals due to the plugging of pore structure and shrinkage by residual oil addition. The briquettability of Upgraded coal briquette according to drop shatter test and compressive strength indicates good characteristics of briquette.
