Description

General description

This Standard Reference Material (SRM) is intended primarily for use in the evaluation of techniques employed in the determination of sulfur, mercury, chlorine, and ash content in coal and materials of a similar matrix. A unit of SRM 2692c consists of 50 g of bituminous coal ground to pass a 250 μm (60 mesh) sieve, homogenized, and packaged in an amber glass bottle. For more information, please refer to the SDS and COA.

Application

• Chlorine in coal research: Studies on airborne observations of reactive inorganic chlorine and bromine species in the exhaust of coal-fired power plants help in understanding the environmental impacts of chlorine emissions from coal combustion (Lee et al., 2018).


• Pharmaceutical coal applications: Utilization of used textiles for solid recovered fuel production is explored as a method to manage waste and recover energy, showing potential for sustainable practices in industrial applications, including pharmaceutical manufacturing (Dziok et al., 2024).
