Foreword

This Standard is drafted in accordance with GB/T 1.1-2009. This Standard replaces GB/T 211-2007 “Hard Coal - Determination of Total Moisture”. In comparison with GB/T 211-2007, in addition to editorial changes, the main technical content changes are as follows. — Method C (drying by microwave) is deleted (please refer to 3.3 in Version 2007); — 13mm sample is added to Method B1 (please refer to 3.2.1 in Version 2007); — Moisture loss correction of dry air during the sampling is added (please refer to 7.4); — Informative appendix (determination of total moisture in coal through the method of drying by microwave) is added (please refer to Appendix A). This Standard is redrafted in accordance with ISO 589.2008 “Hard Coal - Determination of Total Moisture”. The consistent degree between this Standard and ISO 589.2008 is not equivalent. This Standard was proposed by the China National Coal Association. This Standard shall be under the jurisdiction of the National Technical Committee on Coal Chemical Industry of Standardization Administration of China. Drafting organization of this Standard. Coal Analysis and Test Laboratory of China Coal Research Institute. Chief drafting staffs of this Standard. Zhang Bo, Sun Gang and Li Hongtu. The previous editions of the standard replaced by this Standard are as follows. — GB 211-1963, GB 211-1984, GB/T 211-1996 and GB/T 211-2007. Determination of Total Moisture in Coal

1 Scope

This Standard specifies the method summary, reagent and materials, apparatus, procedures, result calculation, precision and test report for the determination of total moisture in coal. The method of drying under nitrogen (Method A1 and B1) shall be applicable to all types of coals; the method of drying in air (Method A2 and B2) shall be applicable to bitumite (excluding easily oxidized coal) and blind coal. Method A1 shall be the arbitration method in this Standard. Note. the method of drying by microwave that’s applicable to the rapid determination of total moisture is also provided in this Standard. The method of drying by microwave is applicable to bitumite and lignite. Please see Appendix A for details.

2 Normative References

For the undated references, the latest edition (including all the amendments) are applicable to this Standard. GB/T 212 “Proximate Analysis of Coal” GB 474 “Method for Preparation of Coal Sample” GB/T 19494.2 “Mechanical Sampling of Coal - Part 2.Method for Sample Preparation”

3 Method Summary

3.1 Method A (two-stage method) 3.1.1 Method A1.drying under nitrogen Weigh-take a certain amount of 13mm coal samples; dry them in the environment where the temperatures do not exceed 40°C, until the constant mass is reached. Crush the sample into particle size lower than 3mm; dry them under nitrogen at (105~110) °C, until the constant mass is reached. Calculate the total moisture from the loss in mass at each of the two stages in accordance with the samples. 3.1.2 Method A2.drying in air Weigh-take a certain amount of 13mm coal samples; dry them in the environment where the temperatures are lower than 40°C, until the constant mass is reached. Crush the samples into maximum particle size of 3mm; 3.2 Method B (single-stage method) 3.2.1 Method B1.drying under nitrogen Weigh-take a certain amount of 6mm coal samples (or 13mm); dry them under nitrogen at (105~110) °C, until the constant mass is reached. Calculate the total moisture from the loss in mass in accordance with the samples.

4 Reagent and Materials

4.1 Anhydrous calcium chloride. chemically pure and granular. 4.2 Allochronic silica gel. industrial products. 4.3 Nitrogen. purity ≥ 99.9%, the oxygen content < 0.01%. 4.4 Tray. made from enamel, stainless steel, galvanized iron or aluminum plate, heat resistant and corrosion resistant materials; the specification shall be able to accommodate 500g sample, and the load per unit-area shall not exceed 1g/cm2. 4.6 Sampling instrument. applicable to 13mm or 6mm sample, and the opening size shall be at least 3 times of the corresponding particle size.

5 Apparatus

5.1 Air-drying oven. with devices for automatic temperature control and air blow, with inlet and outlet for air, capable of being controlled at (30~40)°C and (105~110)°C, with a sufficiently rapid rate of atmosphere change, for instance, more than 5 times per hour. 5.2 Nitrogen-flushed oven. with device for automatic temperature control, capable of being controlled at (105~110)°C, able to accommodate appropriate weighing bottles with a little more room to spare, with inlet and outlet for nitrogen, and allow more than 15 times of atmosphere change per hour. 5.6 Flow meter. with a measuring range of (100~1000)mL/min. 5.7 Drying tower. with a volume of 250ml and contain allochronic silica gel or granular anhydrous calcium chloride.

6 Sample

6.1 According to GB 474 or GB/T 19494.2, prepare the sample for total moisture. In which, for 13mm coal sample for total moisture, it shall not be less than 3kg; for 6mm sample for total moisture, it shall not be less than 1.25kg. 6.2 Before determining the total moisture in coal sample, it shall firstly check the sealing condition of the container. Afterwards, clean the surface; weigh the sample with an industrial balance to the nearest 0.1% of its total mass; check the result with the total mass indicated on the label. If there’s a loss of mass and it can be ascertained that there is no sample loss during transportation or storage, then the mass reduced shall be regarded as that of the lost moisture.

7 Procedures

7.1 Method A (two-stage method) 7.1.1 Free moisture (Methods A1 and A2, drying in air) Use a pre-dried and weighed tray to quickly take-weigh 490g~510g (accurate to 0.1g) of 13mm coal sample; spread it evenly; dry it in an air drying oven at ambient temperature not exceeding 40°C, until the constant mass is reached (with continuous drying for 1h and mass variation not exceeding 0.5g); record the mass (accurate to 0.1g). If an air drying oven is to be used, the coal sample shall be placed in laboratory environment until it reaches moisture equilibrium again. 7.1.2 Inherent moisture (Method A1, drying under nitrogen) 7.1.2.1 After the determination of free moisture, immediately crush the sample into maximum particle size of 3mm. Use a pre-dried and weighed weighing bottle to weigh-take 9g~11g (accurate to 0.001g) of the sample; spread it evenly. 7.1.3 Inherent moisture (Method A2, drying in air) Except that the nitrogen-flushed oven is replaced by the air-drying oven, the other procedures are the same as that in 7.1.2. 7.1.4 Result calculation The total moisture in coal shall be calculated in accordance with Formula (3); 7.2 Method B (single-stage method) 7.2.1 Method B1 (drying under nitrogen) 7.2.1.1 Use a pre-dried and weighed weighing bottle to quickly weigh-take (10~12)g of 6mm coal sample (accurate to 0.001g); spread it evenly. 7.2.1.2 Open the lid of bottle; put it into an oven which has been aerated with dry nitrogen and preheated to (105~110)°C. For bitumite, dry for 2h; for lignite and blind coal, dry for 3h. 7.2.2 Method B2 (drying in air) 7.2.2.1 Total moisture in 13 mm coal sample 7.2.2.1.1 Use a pre-dried and weighed tray to quickly weigh-take 490g~510g (accurate to 0.1g) of 13 mm coal sample; spread it evenly. 7.2.2.1.2 Put the tray in an air-drying oven which has been preheated to (105~110)°C. Under the condition of air-blowing, for bitumite, dry for 2h; for blind coal, dry for 3h. 7.2.2.1.3 Remove the tray and weigh it (accurate to 0.1g) while it is still hot. 7.2.3 Result calculation Total moisture in coal shall be calculated in accordance with Formula (4); 7.4 Moisture loss correction during the preparation If the coal sample is air dried before the preparation of the total moisture sample, which leads to a mass loss of the coal sample, then, the value of corrected total moisture shall be calculated in accordance with Formula (6).

8 Precision of the Methods

Repeatability limits of the determination of total moisture are specified in Table 1.
