Abstract
In microwave desulphurization atomic ratios of O/S, H/C and nitrogen c ontent in coal are found to be very important coal parameters. The lin ear relationship is found to exist between sulphatic sulphur removal e fficiency and atomic O/S ratio. The pyritic sulphur removal efficiency is found to correlate strongly with Wt% nitrogen content in coal. The organic sulphur removal efficiency is correlated to atomic O/S ratio with polynomial of degree three. Total sulphur removal efficiency is a lso correlated with atomic O/S and H/C ratios with polynomial of degre e three in each case. In all the developed correlations, correlation c oefficient (r) values are found to be greater than 0.98.
