Gas producers seek options as methanol falters 96105960 Cranfield,J. PenoleumReview, Jul. 1996, 50, (5941, 316-319. Reports that the world market fo; methanol has eiterda period of massive uncertainty. The biggest use for the roduct for some time has been in the manufacture of merthyl tertiary buty P ether (MTBE). For that, virtually the only use is in the production of unleaded gasoline, specifically where such asoline is required to contain oxygenates to counter the emission of greena ouse gases in the exhaust. The market has not grown as was predicted and there is now substantial methanol overcapacity. Yet more and more plants are coming on stream.

Effect of HBr, HCI and Cl, on fullerena formatlon In 96/05950 benzeneloxygenlargon flame8 Richter, H. et al., Carbon, 1996, 34, (3), 317-326. Describes how amounts of 2.5 and 5.9% of HBr, HCl and Cl, were added lo fullerene forming benzene/oxygen/argon flat-flames burning at 75 mbar in an attempt to affect halogen substitutions in the carbon framework. The inhibition effect of HBr dramatically reduced the yield of fullerene, while it stayed in the same order of magnitude after addition of HCl or Cl,. No formation of halogenated fullerenic compounds could be detected by mass spectrometry using chemical ionization with CH,/N,O or MALDI.

96/05961 Geotechnlcal characterization of several coal combustion byproducts Zhang, M. er al., Proc. 5Orh Ind. Waste Con&, 1996, 349-356. Discusses the suitability of coal combustion byproducts (CCBPs: fluidized bed combustion ashes, stoker ash, and fly ash) for use in embankment construction. In general, the physical and mechanical properties of CCBPs are adequate for use as structural fill in embankment construction. Most ashes have fairly uniform particle size gradation while only stoker ash is well graded.

G. and Rao, G. S. Cem. Concr. Res., 1996, 26, (3), 465-474. Discusses how research efforts during the past decades towards an effective utilization of fly ash in concrete do not seem to have led to a quantitative understanding of the efficiency of fly ash as a mineral admixture. particularly because of the vast variation in the grades of concrete and thd different levels of replacements adopted.

Feaslblllty for developing advanced carbon materlals from coals Qiu, J. et al., Huagong Jinzhan, 1995, (4), 15-22. (In Chinese) Recent years have seen significant progress in the development and application of new advanced carbon materials, and many of the advanced carbon materials can be prepared from coals and coal-derived feedstocks. Reports on a survey study, based mainly on the literature and partly on the authors’ own research work.

Describes how during hydrothermal treatment in NaOH medium! coal fly ash partially transformed to zeolite P and/or hydroxysodalite, wlule quartz slowly dissolved and mullite remained stable. Residual coal favoured the formationof zeolite P. The relative proportion of the two zeolites could be changed by seeding. High strength llghtwelght fly ash composites 96105963 Wirtz, G. P. et al., Prepr. Pap.-Am. Chem. Sot., Div. Fuel Chem., 1996, 41, (2), 592-596. Discusses the use of fly ash which is a valuable byproduct of coal-fired Dower neneration. After benefication to recover valuable minor constiiutents,; fine powder of spherically shaped, largely amorphous, calcium aluminosilicate particles is left, which is suitable for processing into useful shapes without further milling. With the addition of Portland cement or lime, the formed body may be autoclaved at near 200°C to form a pozzolanic bond between fly ash particles. 96105964 Im rovement of plaatlclty of fly ash-clay mixtures for brick and tl Pe manufacture L&-K. G. et al., Yoop Hakhoechi, 1996, 33, (2), 135-142. (In Korean) Fly ashes from coal-fired power plants can be used as raw materials for bricks and tiles because of their compositional similarity with clays. There was a limit of substituting fly ash for clay because plasticity decreased with increasing fly ash additions. The study tried to suggest a feasibility of enhancing the substitution ratio by controlling the interfacial properties of fly ash.

Marcilla, A. et al., Carbon, 1996, 34, (4), 449-456. The effect of the coal carbonization step heating rate on the reactivity of the chars obtained as well as on their porous structure development in the subsequent activation step, was analyzed. Different types of carbonization recess were investigated, combining a low heating rate (5 Wmin) and g,Igh heating rate (hundreds of K per second) in this step.
