Coal liquefaction syncrudes derived from a variety of Australian coals (lignite, sub-bituminous, bituminous) and a number of different coal liquefaction processes have been produced at these laboratories. To produce acceptable quality transport fuels from coal liquefaction syncrudes, hydrotreatment of the syncrude is essential. Hydrotreatment serves two principal functions, namely .
Construction of this pilot plant in Baytown, Texas, was completed in March, 1980, and is to be followed by a thirty month operational program.[1][2] B. Project Status[3][3a] Engineering design and technology studies, bench scale research and small pilot unit operation are being integrated to support operation of the 250 TPD coal liquefaction pilot plant.
Coal utilization - Coal utilization - Liquefaction: Liquefaction is the process of converting solid coal into liquid fuels. The main difference between naturally occurring petroleum fuels and coal is the deficiency of hydrogen in the latter: coal contains only about half the amount found in petroleum. Therefore, conversion of coal into liquid fuels involves the addition of hydrogen.

Direct coal liquefaction has been studied and practiced since the 1930s. It was used in Germany during World War II to produce synthetic fuels when there was no oil allowed into the country. Since then, it has been studied in the United States and many different technologies have been investigated. Since the US is rich in coal resources, this is one way to be energy independent.
01.01.2010 · Chemical reaction engineering challenges in coal liquefaction. As discussed earlier, DCL and FTS technologies have undergone significant advancement in the past. However, DCL is still immature with little chemical reaction engineering data available in the literature and challenges in almost every aspect of the process.

Coal is a fossil fuel extracted from the ground by underground mining or open-pit mining ( surface mining). Often associated with the Industrial Revolution, coal remains an enormously important fuel and is the largest single source of electricity world-wide. Contents[show] Properties It is a readily combustible black or brownish-black sedimentary rock. Composition It is composed .

Chemical Engineering Education, v13 n4 p180-82,215 1979 Described is a graduate level engineering course offered at the University of Southern California on coal liquefaction processes. Lecture topics and course requirements are discussed.
Liquefaction aims to convert solid coal into liquid fuels. Coal can be converted to liquid and gaseous fuels and chemicals by two different processing methods, normally called direct and indirect. Direct coal liquefaction converts solid coal to liquid fuels at high temperature and pressures in the presence or absence of catalyst.
All direct coal liquefaction methods, such as H-Coal, Solvent-Refined Coal, and Exxon Donor Solvent processes, are alike in one principal point: coal is thermally solubilized with certain solvents, usually coal-derived, with or without catalysts. If heated in a proper liquid for a short time, most of the coal dissolves. This first stage seems to be purely thermal, but only chemical bonds with ...
07.07.2009 · Coal Liquefaction Coal liquefaction is the conversion of coal into a synthetic oil in order to supplement natural sources of petroleum. It is an attractive technology because 1) It is well developed and thus could be implemented fairly rapidly and 2) There are relatively large quantities of coal reserves. 3. Coal Liquefaction 3.

In situ liquefaction of underground coal by hot aqueous alkaline extraction is discussed and is evaluated as an economic and practical alternative to deep shaft mining as well as in situ gasification. In the described process, hot alkali, pumped at high pressure down a borehole, passes through the coal bed (rendered permeable by fracturing) and reacts with coal to form a product mix which ...
