“…Mass spectrometry was used to detect the composition and content of the gaseous products released during the combustion of bio-heavy oil and coal blended with bio-heavy oil (coal : bio-heavy oil = 1 : 1), including the mass spectral curves of CO ( m / z = 28), NO ( m / z = 30), O 2 ( m / z = 32), CO 2 ( m / z = 44), NO 2 ( m / z = 46), and SO 2 ( m / z = 64). 41 As shown in Fig. 6 , the amount of gaseous pollutants in bio-heavy oil after combustion is in the order of CO > CO 2 > NO > SO 2 ≈ NO 2 .…”

“…Coal– Scenedesmus blends, under the commercial name Coalgae ® 5–20% (coal and microalgae ratio at mass basis) composite, have exhibited improved combustion behavior and evolved greenhouse gases [ 248 ]. In addition, a decrease in the emissions of CO 2 , NOx, and SO 2 from coal to Coalgae ® 5–20% was observed.…”

It was generally believed that coal sources are not favorable as live-in habitats for microorganisms due to their recalcitrant chemical nature and negligible decomposition. However, accumulating evidence has revealed the presence of diverse microbial groups in coal environments and their significant metabolic role in coal biogeochemical dynamics and ecosystem functioning. The high oxygen content, organic fractions, and lignin-like structures of lower-rank coals may provide effective means for microbial attack, still representing a greatly unexplored frontier in microbiology. Coal degradation/conversion technology by native bacterial and fungal species has great potential in agricultural development, chemical industry production, and environmental rehabilitation. Furthermore, native microalgal species can offer a sustainable energy source and an excellent bioremediation strategy applicable to coal spill/seam waters. Additionally, the measures of the fate of the microbial community would serve as an indicator of restoration progress on post-coal-mining sites. This review puts forward a comprehensive vision of coal biodegradation and bioprocessing by microorganisms native to coal environments for determining their biotechnological potential and possible applications.

On-Line Thermally Induced Evolved Gas Analysis: An Update—Part 1: EGA-MS

Advances in on-line thermally induced evolved gas analysis (OLTI-EGA) have been systematically reported by our group to update their applications in several different fields and to provide useful starting references. The importance of an accurate interpretation of the thermally-induced reaction mechanism which involves the formation of gaseous species is necessary to obtain the characterization of the evolved products. In this review, applications of Evolved Gas Analysis (EGA) performed by on-line coupling heating devices to mass spectrometry (EGA-MS), are reported. Reported references clearly demonstrate that the characterization of the nature of volatile products released by a substance subjected to a controlled temperature program allows us to prove a supposed reaction or composition, either under isothermal or under heating conditions. Selected 2019, 2020, and 2021 references are collected and briefly described in this review.
