Coal liquor clarification with water-soluble, high molecular weight polymers having low concentration of cationic moieties

摘要

Coal liquors are clarified by contacting them with high molecular weight copolymers of from about 70 to about 99 mole percent of a nonionic water-soluble monomer such as acrylamide and from 1 to 30 mole percent of a cationic monomer such as methacryloylethyl trimethyl ammonium chloride or methacrylamidopropyl trimethyl ammonium chloride.
