Characteristics of heat production and key structure evolution in the initial stage of coal spontaneous combustion by Hao LIU, Zenghua LI, Gang WANG, Huiyong NIU, Bo TAN

“…The results found that the pore structure of coal is not the dominant factor determining the differences in coal oxidation heat release; rather, a more developed pore structure merely effectively promotes the coal-oxygen complex reaction. Electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) experimental results demonstrate that the oxidation heat production during the initial stage of coal spontaneous combustion is a kinetic behavior controlled by reaction sites. …”
