MODERN RESEARCH AND ANALYSIS OF WATER-COAL ALTERNATIVE FUELS
Abstract
This article analyses scientific publications related to alternative fuels obtained from biomass pyrolysis and coal-water fuel technologies, using the Web of Science international database and the keywords “alternative fuel” and “coal-water fuel”. The search queries “Alternative Fuels AND Coal-Water Fuel” and “Coal AND Water AND Fuel AND Alternative Fuels” were used to identify scientific articles published or scheduled for publication between 1988 and 2027. The types of articles, the leading authors in terms of publication activity, the contributing countries and the main research directions were determined, and the dynamics of scientific and practical activity in this field were analysed. The results show that the number of scientific publications on alternative fuels derived from biomass pyrolysis has increased significantly over the past decade, indicating active research by leading countries and authors. Additionally, coal-water fuel technologies, including their preparation methods, efficient combustion processes, and potential use as environmentally friendly energy sources, were identified as promising areas of research.
