History. In the past, coal was converted to make coal gas, which was piped to customers to burn for illumination, heating, and cooking. High prices of oil and natural gas led to increased interest in "BTU Conversion" technologies such as gasification, methanation and liquefaction. The Synthetic Fuels Corporation was a governmentfunded corporation established in 1980 to create a market ...
Coal liquefaction is the process of producing liquid fuels from coal. Coal liquefaction is a means of addressing the many energy applications that are suited for consuming liquids. The technology entails heating coal, often with various reagents such as hydrogen, which produces a liquid. One of the main methods of direct conversion of coal to ...

The catalyst is withdrawn from a coal hydroliquefaction reactor while it is maintained on stream by withdrawing a portion of the catalyst, in a separate stream, dispersed in product from the liquefaction zone, with such withdrawn stream being further diluted with liquid recovered from the main product stream to reduce the catalyst concentration.
Coal Resources, Production and Use in Indonesia. Stanford, in The Coal Handbook: Towards Cleaner Production: Coal Utilisation, 2013 Coal liquefaction. Coal to Liquids (CTL) is at feasibility stage in Indonesia for several processes. had expressed interest in developing their FischerTropsch indirect process in Indonesia.
Coal liquefaction is the process of making a liquid fuel from coal. The fundamental difference between coal, a solid, and liquid fuels is that the liquid fuels have a higher hydrogen:carbon ratio. Liquid fuels have lower ash contents and are easier to upgrade (, to remove unwanted impurities such as nitrogen and sulfur).
In this study, coal fly ash was functionalized, using a simple onestep process (loading with Al3+ and sulfonation), to yield a solid acid catalyst (S/AlCFA) with strong acid sites. The catalyst was then used to produce furfural from xylose in a biphasic system (H2O(NaCl)/tetrahydrofuran). The furfural yield reached 82% at 180 °C60 min with catalyst/xylose ratio of : (w/w). With the ...
The DCL process produces considerably highvariety and efficient products at low temperatures compared to the indirect coal liquefaction process. Generally, Fig. 1 shows the distinct difference between the direct and indirect liquefaction processes. Importantly, DCL consists of many steps for the conversion of coal to PA (preasphaltenes) and ...
Through a onestage liquefaction method using a powdered iron catalyst and hydrogen donor solvent, the NEDOL process can attain a high liquefied oil yield from a wide range of coal ranks under a mild reaction condition. Through these technical characteristics, the NEDOL process has the following advantages in commercialization.
Coal resources have been used to produce liquid transportation fuels by several process routes, collectively referred to as coal liquefaction or, more generally stated, as Coal to Liquids (CTL). Early records of coal conversion to liquid fuel date to 1913 and an extraction process developed by Friedrich Bergius in Germany [ 7 ].
The principal direct liquefaction processes are: 1. Extraction. Some bioderived and waste materials yield an oil product by extraction that can directly be used as feed material for refining.
Fig. 12 shows the total costs of the whole coal liquefaction process together with the costs of four major parts: coal price, (coal) transportation, DCL production and distribution. Among three, "DCL_R" is the most economical one, the price of which is only two third of "DCL_H". For "DCL_H" and "DCL_R", the price caused by the ...
Direct coal liquefaction test plants have been constructed and successfully operated under subsidies from the New Energy and Industrial Technology Development Organization. To analyze the data, which had been collected on these plants, a simulator was constructed for the material and enthalpy balances in the preheaters and reactors. This simulator was evaluated in a process supporting unit ...
Because of the limited time available, a decision was made to focus considerations upon the condensate waters from direct coalliquefaction, lowtemperature coalgasification, and oilshale retorting processes.
A process for liquefying a particulate coal feed to produce useful petroleumlike liquid products by steps which include: (a) contacting, in a liquefaction zone, said coal feed with a hydrogen donor solvent at temperature and pressure sufficient to hydroconvert and liquefy the coal, (b) separating the product from the liquefaction zone by distillation into fractions inclusive of a liquid ...
Direct coal liquefaction involves contacting coal directly with a catalyst at elevated temperatures and pressures with added hydrogen (H 2 ), in the presence of a solvent to form a raw liquid product which is further refined into product liquid fuels.

Liquefaction occurring beneath buildings and other structures can cause major damage during earthquakes. Name drop an example of where/when liquefaction has occurred (3) For example,the 1988 earthquake in north eastern India. Liquefaction caused damaged roads and bridges,causing people to be trapped or injured.
Process. The Exxon donor solvent process is a noncatalytic processing of solventslurried coal in a highpressure liquefaction reactor. Coal is cleaned, crushed and fed to the slurry dryer, where water is removed. The dry crushed coal is slurried with the hydrogen donor recycle solvent. The coal slurry is treated with hydrogen and heated in a ...
A kinetic analysis of coal liquefaction in flow reactors of the 1 t/d Process Supporting Unit (PSU) for the NEDOL Process is reported. The coal liquefaction section of the PSU consists of a preheater and three liquefaction reactors in series. Progress of coal liquefaction in PSU has been investigated, focussing mainly on the changes in coal derived insoluble components through the preheater ...
Introduction. Direct liquefaction of coal is an effective measure for clean utilization of coal, which converts solid coal (H/C ratio ≈ ) to liquid fuels (H/C ratio ≈ 2) by adding hydrogen (Ren et al., 2010; Vasireddy et al., 2011).It is vital to provide enough hydrogen in a timely manner to stabilize free radicals from coal pyrolysis for getting more liquid fuels and inhibiting coke ...
Even while you are still burning coal, liquefaction and then burning the lightoil derived solid fuel is a good idea. It will generate large amounts of petrol for use in other things, and you get a large fraction of the energy value from the coal. 10 coal becomes 10 heavy oil, 15 light oil, and 20 petrol gas.
SUMMARY Coal is a solid with a high carbon content but with a hydrogen content of ~5%. Compared with liquid fuels (derived from crude oil) it is inconvenient to handle and unsuited to some applications, eg transportation.
coal liquefaction, any process of turning coal into liquid products resembling crude oil. The two procedures that have been most extensively evaluated are carbonization—heating coal in the absence of air—and hydrogenation—causing coal to react with hydrogen at high pressures, usually in the presence of a catalyst.

Coal liquefaction is a process of converting coal into liquid hydrocarbons: liquid fuels and petrochemicals. This process is often known as "Coal to X" or "Carbon to X", where X can be many different hydrocarbonbased products. However, the most common process chain is "Coal to Liquid Fuels" (CTL).
The direct coal liquefaction process usually produces a liquefaction residue of about 30% of its coal feed. The effective utilization of the coal liquefaction residue (CLR), which contains about 80% organic matter, is of great significance for improving the oil yield of the direct liquefaction process and reducing the amount of pollution emitted from this oilcontaining organic solid waste.
