Performed tests showed that at 298 K hard coals sorb relatively small amounts of hydrogen. Those amounts depend on carbon and oxygen content in tested coals. The most considerable amounts of hydrogen are sorbed by coals characterized by strong surface hydrophobicity and high content of aliphatic hydrocarbons. The hydrophilic nature of coal surface does not lead to higher sorption of hydrogen. It was found that the change in amount of sorbed hydrogen is closely related to the moisture. For high moisture coal a significant decrease in hydrogen sorption is observed. Also tests on hydrogen desorption on hard coals were carried out using method of lowering hydrogen pressure above the sorbent. Obtained results showed that tested coals desorb various amounts of hydrogen. Process of sorption is reversible only for some coals, while for the others the desorption isotherm partially lies beneath the sorption isotherm, which indicates that in addition to hydrogen some other chemical substances are emitted from coal.
