Gopalakrishnan, R.; Fullwood, M.; Moody, S.; Cope, R.F. and Bartholomew, C.H.
Proceedings of the 7th International Conference on Coal Science, Banff, Canada, September 1993. Funded by ACERC.

This study is part of an ongoing program to investigate (a) rates and mechanisms of Ca-catalyzed oxidation of synthetic char and chars prepared from representative U.S. coals and (b) the chemical nature of active catalytic sites for oxidation on those inorganic mineral phases present in coal chars.
