A two-stage pyrolysis
fixed bed was used,
and the vapor-modified pyrolysis coke was used as a carrier. A ZHPC
catalyst was prepared by plasma calcination. Gas-phase tar produced
by the pyrolysis of raw coal was subjected to in situ catalytic cracking
to improve tar and gas yield. The effects of plasma calcination power,
calcination time, and ZnO loading on in situ cracked products were
studied. The prepared catalyst was characterized by X-ray electron
spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, Brunauer–Emmett–Teller,
and scanning electron microscopy. The results showed that (1) compared
with traditional catalysts, the catalyst prepared by plasma has better
performance; (2) the optimal calcination time of the ZHPC catalyst
is 5 min, calcination power is 60 W, and ZnO loading is 10%; (3) compared
with raw coal pyrolysis, the optimal ZHPC catalyst on in situ catalytic
cracking tar, gas yield increased by 66.16%; the cracking rate of
tar increased by 54.46%, and the content of light components increased
to 60.7%; (4) in situ catalytic cracking of tar with the optimal PC,
the light tar has been greatly improved, in which the light oil, phenol
oil, naphthalene oil, and wash oil have increased by 93.04, 126.31,
257.28, and 108.08%, respectively. The anthracene oil and asphalt
have decreased by 26.98 and 58.71%; the tar cracking rate has increased.
