“…Compared with thermo-chemical conversion technologies, such as gasification and pyrolysis, it employs microorganisms to liquefy coal under low temperature (<40 ı C) and atmospheric pressure conditions (Fakoussa and Hofrichter, 1999). To date, coal bio-solubilization has been widely studied and reported in the literature (Basaran et al, 2003;Elbeyli et al, 2006;Machnikowska et al, 2002;Selvi et al, 2009;Senel et al, 1993;Silva-Stenico et al, 2007;Yin et al, 2009). However, this technology still faces several technical problems. One of them is that it is difficult to do a real-time quantitative measurement of coal bio-solubilization, especially in aqueous reaction media.…”

This study developed mathematic models to convert ultraviolet-visible absorbance (UV/Vis) of biosolublized coal to conversion ratios. By a mathematic regression method, the results showed that they had strong linear relationships. The highest correlation coefficient (0.99531) of the linear relationship between UV/Vis absorbance and coal bio-solubilization ratios was obtained at the wavelength of 513 nm. The high correlation coefficient further indicated that the use of UV/Vis with the proposed mathematic model would be an easier, quicker, and more accurate measurement, as compared with the conventional measurement of weighing coal loss after bio-solubilization.
