Book ChapterDOI
Carbon-13 NMR Spectra
TL;DR: The chemical shift range of carbon-13 resonances is so wide (more than 200 ppm for simple functional classes) that most compounds show a separate signal for each different carbon environment in the molecule; this is dramatically illustrated in the spectrum for vitamin B12 at the head of the chapter, and more modestly in the menthol spectrum in figure 5.2.
Journal ArticleDOI
Characterization of petroleum feedstocks for coal−oil co-processing
S. Wallace,Keith D. Bartle,M.P. Burke,B. Egia,S. Lu,Norman Taylor,T. Flynn,William Kemp,W. Steedman +8 more
TL;DR: In this article, Point-of-Ayr coal was co-processed with five different petroleum residues under a variety of conditions in tubing bombs to assess the influence of various structural types on extraction yield.
Journal ArticleDOI
Pyrolysis of SCG extract coal asphaltenes: Gas chromatographic-mass spectroscopic study of the n-pentane soluble fraction
TL;DR: In this article, the asphaltene fraction from a supercritical gas (SCG) extract of bituminous coal was pyrolysed under nitrogen at temperatures from 200 to 450 °C, and the resultant pyrolyate re-fractionated into four conventional solubility classes (n -pentane-soluble, benzene-solubility, pyridine-insoluble, and Pyridineinsolubles) by combined gas chromatography-mass spectrometry.
Journal ArticleDOI
Donor solvent interactions during coal liquefaction
TL;DR: In this paper, coal conversion yields were measured in terms of THF and quinoline-soluble material, following reactions in a stirred batch autoclave under standard conditions of 1 h at 400 °C, and with normalized amounts of hydroaromatic components present as solvent.
Journal ArticleDOI
Coal conversion in co-processing with heavy petroleum residues
S. Wallace,Keith D. Bartle,William Kemp,W. Steedman,T. Flynn,M.P. Burke,C.J. Jones,Norman Taylor +7 more
TL;DR: In this paper, Point-of-Ayr coal was co-processed with a series of petroleum residues under both mild and severe reaction conditions, and Bimetallic catalysts were found to enhance coal conversion.
