Bench-scale development of coal/oil co-processing technology. Twelfth quarterly report, 1 July--30 September 1990

摘要

This quarterly progress report presents the status of work on the Bench-Scale Development of Coal/Oil Co-Processing Technology. The technology being developed is the HRI Coal/Oil Co-Processing Technology based on two-stage catalytic, ebullated-bed processing. Bench-scale work is being performed at Hydrocarbon Research, Inc. (HRI) with laboratory-scale support work by the Alberta Research Council (ARC). Activities during the 12th quarter of this project have included the following: A contract modification was executed to extend the program through the end of 1990 and to add a bench-scale operation; A draft of the Topical Report No. 1 was delivered to DOE; Bench Run No. 9 was completed evaluating the effect of coal concentration on reactivity in once-through operations.
