The influence of high ash content in the feed coal may partially be reduced by selecting an appropriate coal conversion process, its configuration and solidliquid separation to be used in the process (2). However, the most radical approach is to reduce ash content in the coal prior to feeding it into the conversion plant using coal ...
CoaltoLiquids. CoaltoLiquids (CTL) is a process of converting coal to fuels such as diesel or gas. For diesel, the process involves first building a plant to convert coal to gas and then another plant to covert the gas to a liquid. The resultant liquid fuel is known as synthetic fuel or synfuel. Synfuels are used as an alternative to oil ...
This invention is directed to a process for converting coal into useful liquids, solids, and gases, by combined processes of coal carbonization and liquefaction in which the carbonization reaction yields hydrogen suitable for the liquefaction. The heavy liquid products from the liquefaction and the carbonization may be combined with the solid char to form a metallurgical coke.
Coal liquefaction is a process of changing 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) Coal liquefaction is the process of converting ...
For the most highly developed processes, coal conversion can be as high as 90% on a mineral ash free basis, with a C 5+ distillate yield up to 75% and hydrogen consumption of 57%wt. When an external catalyst is used, it is typically some combination of cobalt, nickel, and molybdenum on a solid acid support such as silicaalumina [].DCL process concepts have been based on a variety of ...
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. Liquefaction ...

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).
It is observed that bituminization takes place with rising rank in the brown coal to subbituminous coal range. This is because petroleumtype hydrocarbons are formed at this stage from components of waxy leaf cuticles, pollen, and spore coatings by chemical reactions. Petroleum source rocks are able to generate petroleum from included organic ...
It can convert biomass into fuel gas, liquid oil, and solid coal efficiently in the absence of oxygen [86,87], which occurs at relatively low temperatures (between 350 and 700 °C). This process involves the heating and drying of a biomass particle, as well as the release of volatiles.

The diversification of coal for its sustainable utilization in producing liquid transportation fuel is inevitable in countries with huge coal reserves. Gasification has been contemplated as one of the most promising thermochemical routes to convert coal into highquality syngas, which can be utilized to produce liquid hydrocarbons through catalytic FischerTropsch (FT) synthesis. Liquid ...
direct and indirect. As the names imply, direct processes directly convert coalbased hydrocarbons into liquid fuels, while indirect processes use an intermediate process (gasification) to convert the coal into a gaseous fuel (syngas) before further refining the syngas into liquid fuels. Exhibit 21 gives a general overview of the processes ...
