In order to explore the succession of microorganisms in the liquefaction of lignite,a self screened fungus was selected as the liquefac-tion microorganism,and high-throughput sequencing technology was used to investigate the effects of different pH,liquefaction time,and coal addition on the microbial community during the liquefaction process.As a result,it was found that different pH values of the culture medium had a significant impact on the species composition during coal liquefaction.There were 2 and 3 unique species at pH 4 and pH 8,respectively.Among them,g_Trichoderma mainly came from samples at pH 4,accounting for 90.9%.The species that cause extreme differences in species composition between different pH sample groups include Hannaella cuprosae and Trichoderma,with P<0.0005 for both.Wallemia and Archae-olhizomyces are species that cause significant differences in liquefaction days.Among the three environmental factors of pH,liquefaction time,and coal addition,the substances with strong correlation and significance are Hannaella cuprosae and Papiliotrema.
