Coal Liquefaction is the process of converting coal to liquid fuels. What is Coal Liquefaction? The process of coal liquefaction creates synthetic liquid fuels from solid as substitutes for various petroleum products. There are two types of liquefaction direct and indirect .
In general, methane, CO, ethane, propane, ethanol, and glycerol are typical gaseous and liquid fuels for producing syngas, pure H, pure CO, NH, ethylene, and propylene via the chemical looping process. Central to this technology is the solid intermediates that act as reservoirs for storing and releasing O or N in multiple subreactions to close ...
Coal gasificationbased processes for conversion of coal to liquid fuels and chemicals have been in commercial operation for considerably longer than gasification for power generation. Methods for the conversion of coal to liquid fuels (CtL) have been available since the 1930s, but widespread acceptance of the technologies has been hindered by ...
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.
Coal liquefaction is a process of converting coal into liquid hydrocarbons: liquid fuels and 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).
Flowchart illustrating the process of converting solid coal/biomass into gaseous and liquid fuel. Gasification is the thermochemical process of converting a solid carbonaceous source such as coal or biomass into synthesis gas (CO + H 2) which is used as a feedstock for producing fuels and chemicals. Gasification, generally done in
The process of converting coal into liquid and using it for transportation releases nearly twice as much carbon dioxide as burning diesel made from crude oil does. In a world conscious of climate ...
This process is termed coaltoliquid (CTL) and is a reasonably mature technology. The process typically uses the technique of heating under pressure (up to 470°C, 200 bar) and hydrogenation where hydrogen is added to a coalwater slurry.
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 ...
I claim: 1. A process for the production of gaseous and liquid fuels from solid fuel sources which comprises: 1. subjecting said solid fuel to oil extraction and hydrogenation in an oil extractor at a temperature of from about 500° to about 900° F; 2. removing top vent gases from said oil extractor to a cobalt oxide treater, removing hydrogen ...
Indirect liquefaction processes require first gasifying the solid feedstocks into a syngas. Therefore, while direct coal liquefaction (DCL) takes coal directly into a liquid phase, indirect coal liquefaction (ICL) consists of two major steps: (a) gasification to produce a synthesis gas (syngas); and (b) conversion of the carbon monoxide (CO) and hydrogen (H 2) in the syngas to a range of ...
Gasification technology is basically a process for converting solid or liquid feedstock into a gaseous or liquefied fuel that can be burned to release energy. ... Gasification of coal on a commercial scale began in the early 19th century. During this period, gasification created an important gas industry, initially based on the public lighting ...
Liquid fuels are contrasted with solid fuels and gaseous fuels. General ... chemical processes such as the FischerTropsch process can be used to produce liquid fuels from coal or natural gas. Synthetic fuels from coal were strategically important during World War II for the German military. ... On June 20, 2006, DuPont and BP announced that ...

First, we need to know that the process of converting solid coal into liquid hydrocarbon fuel is called coal liquefaction. There are two main methods of coal liquefaction: Step 2/3 1. Direct coal liquefaction: In this method, coal is mixed with a solvent and hydrogen gas under high pressure and temperature to produce liquid hydrocarbons. Step 3 ...
Synthetic fuel or synfuel is a liquid fuel, or sometimes gaseous fuel, obtained from syngas, a mixture of carbon monoxide and hydrogen, in which the syngas was derived from gasification of solid feedstocks such as coal or biomass or by reforming of natural gas . Common ways for refining synthetic fuels include the FischerTropsch conversion ...

The liquefaction process is just simple, which is converting solid coal into a liquid product, at high hydrogen temperature and high pressure with the implementation of a catalyst and solvent media.
The primary process for FT is the Synthol Process; the schematic is shown in Figure The synthesis gas goes into the reactor at MPa of pressure and 315330°C. The product leaves the reactor where the catalyst is recovered, oils are removed by a hydrocarbon scrubber, and the tail gas recovered.

In the process of liquefaction, solid coal is converted to a petroleumlike liquid that can be used as a fuel for motor vehicles and other applications. On the one hand, both liquefaction and gasification are attractive technologies in the United States because of our very large coal resources.
A process called biosolubilization utilizes the role of microorganisms to convert solid coal into liquid fuel/chemical compounds while still producing environmentally friendly by products. Furthermore, lignite contains simple aromatic compounds which is a favourable condition to optimize the process.
