96/03601 Influence of hydrogen donor solvent on kinetic features of hydrogenatlon of some fluld products of coal llquefactlon Sudakova, I. G. Coal Sci. Technol., 1995, 24, (2), 1491-1494. Presents a study of the kinetics and mechanism of hydrorefining of coal liquefaction distillates in the presence of hydroaromatic compounds, e.g. Tetralin, as hydrogen donors. The process is used for the production of motor fuels. 96103602 Influence of operating condltlons on the effect of catalysts In coal liquefaction De Marco, I. et al., Coal Sci. Techr!ol., 1995, 24, (2), 1283-1286. Describes the effects of operation conditions and catalysts on liquefaction of a subbituminous coal in anthracene oil and Tetralin. 96103683 Influence of the hydrocarbons dlstrlbutlon on the heat produced durlng Fischer-Tropsch synthesls Chaumette, P. ef al., Top. Caral., 1995, 2, (l), 301-311. The heat produced during Fischer-Tropsch synthesis has been calculated, considering a base case in which a typical Anderson-Schulz-Flory distribution is followed by the paraffinic hydrocarbons produced. An equation has been obtained, which allowed the authors to calculate the enthalpy of reaction, using the probability of chain growth as the variable. Also the effect of a deviation from the ASF distribution has been considered, through the example of a higher methane selectivity than in the base case. 96103684 Iron from two different catalytic precursors In coal hydrogenatlon Mastral, A. M. er al., Coal Sci. Technol., 199.5, 24, (2), 133.5-1338. The paper discusses how iron dispersed onto coal surface as FeSz showed a different state and behaviour depending on the type of coal: over the subbiluminous coal, detection of added Fe by X-ray techniques appears to be screened by the rapid oxidation of heteroatoms present in the coal. On the other hand, the iron dispersed on high-rank coal presents a higher disposition IO be reduced to pyrrhotite under hydrogenation conditions. The extent of reduction to pyrrhotite and the number of its vacancies do not present a direct relationship to the degree of conversion achieved in dry hydrogenation or to the selectivity to oil production for both catalyst precursors.

The overflow fractions obtained by hydrocyclone separation. concentrated m reactive macerals and reduced in mineral content, produced an improvement in liquefaction conversions over the original coal, together wilh a shift in the net product distribution towards higher oils and lower residue content in the liquid products. In addition, the quantity of mineral matter removed at the filtration stage decreased.

Describes how synthesis gas reactions were examined for multistage coal liquefaction in the presence of alkali metal catalysts and added transition metal hydrogenation catalysts. Reactions were carried out at 365” and 400” with CO-containing atmospheres and H,-H,O, and two-stage reactions with a dry-catalyzed hydrogenation stage.
96103692 The orlgln of allphatlc hydrocarbons In brown coal llquefactlon. Reactlons of a model acid, alcohol and ester Bangers, G. D. er al., Fuel, Apr. 1995, 75, (5), 591-596. A model long-chain alcohol (n-C,,), carboxylic acid (n-C,,) and ester (nC,, t n-C,,) have been reacted under coal liquefaction conditions at 320 and 405°C with both hydrogen and carbon monoxide-water as reducing systems. The products of these reactions were characterized by g.c., g.c.m.s. and mass spectroscopy. In addition to materials with the same carbon number as the starting compounds, lower-molecular-weight materials arising from fragmentation and higher-molecular-weight compounds arising from radical recombination reactions were detected.
96103693 Preconverslon chemistry and llquefactlon of coal In the presence of a molybdenum-contalnlng catalyst Warzinski, K. I’. er al., Coal Sci. Techol., 1995, 24, (2), 1339.1342. The paper describes the initial experiments on the interactions of catalysts in a donor solvent (i.e. Tetralin) which has emphasized the importance of a solvent in enhancing the primary dissolution of coal at lower reaction temperatures. Although dissolution in a coal-derived oil in the presence of a catalyst gives the best results, softening and coal solubilization are likely the important factors. Analysis of short-time products at 375” showed that a major role of the catalyst at the initial phases of coal dissolution is to facilitate hydrogen transfer to aromatic species in the coal.
