The structural changes of the lignite samples were observed by analyzing the amount of phenolic hydroxyl, carboxyl, andperoxide of the samples oxidized and by comparing the IR spectra of the lignites, both original and oxidized. It was concluded that most of the phenolic structures of the lignites were oxidized into quinonoid structures during the oxidation process.en10.1080/00908318908908961info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessOxidationaircoalArticle114273277N/AWOS:A1989CK44500005N/A
