The evolution behavior of the light tar fraction of tar during large bituminous coal particle pyrolysis in afluidized bed reactor at 500--900 ℃ was investigated to optimize the industrial process. The coal residence time wasvaried from 30 s to 150 s. The crude tar obtained was distilled and separated into the light fraction and the heavyfraction through an evaporator under conditions of 280 ℃ and 104 Pa. The light tar was subjected to GC-MS analysis,and the 300 main species in each spectrum were determined and analyzed. The experimental results showed that theevolution behavior of the light tar fraction and the heavy tar fraction presented spectacularly different variation trendswith pyrolysis temperature and coal residence time. The molecular weight and number of rings per aromatic com-pound molecule contained in the light tar fraction increased with increasing pyrolysis temperature because of poly-merization. It was also observed that the amount of methyl substituents decreased with an increasing number of ringsper molecule of poly-aromatic ring compounds. The chain aliphatic compound evolution was suppressed and under-went heterocyclization with increasing temperature.
