A new carbonization process with high temperature preheating has been studi
ed. A mechanism which improve the coking property was examined with coal pr
operties by Solid State NMR and NMR imaging methods. It has been clarified
that the molecular structure of coal has been relaxed by the rapid heating
treatment and addition there is a close relation in hydrogen bond and relax
ation of molecular structure of coal. Furthermore, the specimen of coal sho
w the increase of mobile component by the rapid heat treatment using NMR mi
cro imaging.
