Reactions between coals and hydrogen atoms were investigated in a discharge flow apparatus (Fig.1) at temperatures ranging from 130 to 250°C under 133 Pa. Australian coals (Yallourn, Goonyella) and domestic coals (Taiheiyo, Miike) (Table 1) were first heated in helium until dry distillation was substantially completed. The thermally stabilized coals were then irradiated with hydrogen atoms. Rate of the formation of organic components increased by a factor of about 103 upon the hydrogen atom irradiation (Fig.2).
