ENGINEERING EVALUATIONS OF COAL CONVERSION PROCESSES PART 1. HYDROCARBONIZATION AND SYNTHOIL-INFORMATION BASE, PROCESS SELECTION, AND PRELIMINARY EVALUATION OF ALTERNATIVES

摘要

This report covers the first phase of a project sponsored by the ERDA Division of Coal Conversion and Utilization for the process design and evaluation of the hydrocarbonization and Synthoil processes. As part of this evaluation, a survey was made of the experimental data and other information available for the design of full-scale facilities for each process. An assessment was made to determine the adequacy of the data available for design purposes. Preliminary process design bases have been prepared for facilities with fuel oil outputs of 100,000 bbl/day in each case.
