In this work, the effects of alkali and alkaline earth metals (AAEM (K, Na, Ca and Mg)) on Fe (5 wt%) loaded-coal pyrolysis were conducted using the fixed-bed reactor at 700 °C with 0.1 MPa N2. The coal was pretreated by HCl and HF aqueous solutions (De-2 coal). These effects were investigated with AAEM additive into Fe loaded De-2 coal. The results indicate that K, Na, Ca and Mg (0.1 wt%-1.5 wt%) enhanced the catalytic effect of Fe catalyst, leading to the high H2 selectivity (59.34 ml/g →85.94 ml/g), as well as the low yield toward CO2 (157.50 ml/g →148.62 ml/g), and the catalytic activity follows the order of Na ≈ K > Ca > Mg. Characterization results reveal that the inherent AAEM promote the reduction of Fe species and the dispersion of Fe particles. The reason for that was AAEM combined with oxygen-containing functional group generated C–O-AAEM and COO-AAEM, and released active oxygen sites to activate carbon sites, leading to Fe catalyst bound with active oxygen sites formed iron oxide and Fe-(O)–C on char surface. This study was helpful to understand the promotion mechanism of AAEM on Fe catalyzed coal pyrolysis.

•The existence of Si, Al in coal ash could not be beneficial to Fe-catalyzed coal pyrolysis.•CO2 yield decreased with addition of alkali and alkaline earth metals in Fe-catalyzed demineralized coal pyrolysis.•Alkali and alkaline earth metals promoted the dispersion of Fe particles and the reduction of Fe species.
