Low severity coal conversion by ionic hydrogenation. Final report, July 7, 1986-December 1989.

摘要

The work accomplished in this project will be reported in two parts. Part one will focus on the development of catalytic ionic hydrogenation reactions utilizing a transition metal-H(sub 2) complex as the hydride donor and BF(sub 3):H(sub 2)O as proton donor. This part reports the results of prelimiary work leading to the development of a new catalytic ionic hydrogenation system (MeCN)(sub 2)PtCl(sub 2)/H(sub 2)/BF(sub 3): H(sub 2)O. The results from some of this work have been published and the paper is included as the appendix. The second part focuses on the newly developed catalytic and other well characterized ionic hydrogenation reactions applied to lignites (Beulah-Zap), sub-bitumiuous (Wyodak), and bituminous coals (Pittsburgh (number sign)8). 19 refs., 10 tabs.
