Industrial implications of the properties of brown coals

TL;DR: In this article, the authors provide an overview of the industrial implications of the properties of brown coal, including drying and briquetting processes, which are also usually prerequisites for the carbonization and gasification of soft brown coals such as those found in Victoria.

A review of low-rank coals liquefaction processes containing water and syngas (or CO)

TL;DR: In this article , the authors present the latest development of direct coal liquefaction in the system containing water and syngas or CO (DCLS), focusing on critical liquidification behaviors (mainly the effects of various parameters such as coals, catalysts, solvents, as well as appropriate reaction temperatures and pressures on the liquidification behavior).

Hydrogenation and reduction

TL;DR: In this article, the chemical and physical processes involved in the conversion (reduction) of brown coals to liquid products with particular regard to the effects of coal characteristics (organic structure and inorganic material present); the role of the slurring solvent; the pyrolytic decomposition of the coal; the nature and role of catalysts or promoters in hydrogen transfer reactions between hydrogen gas and donor solvents and/or direct transfer to coal; and the yield and nature of the primary liquid products.

Preliminary investigations on the catalytic hydrogenation of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons via WGSR

TL;DR: In this paper, a polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon in coal (anthracene) undergoes partial cracking and polycondensation under non-hydrogen-donor conditions at 400°C, which provides theoretical support for catalytic hydrogenation in direct liquefaction of lignite in a syngas (CO+H2) system.

Fe(CO)5/Sulfur-Catalyzed Liquefaction of Yallourn Coal in Syngas-Water Systems

TL;DR: Pentacarbonyliron with sulfur was found to be an excellent catalyst precursor for liquefaction of Yallourn coal using syngas-water as a hydrogen source as mentioned in this paper.

Free radical chemistry of coal liquefaction: role of molecular hydrogen

Lonnie W. Vernon
- 01 Feb 1980 - 
TL;DR: In this article, the authors showed that molecular hydrogen can participate directly in free radical reactions under coal liquefaction conditions, and that the rate of the reaction is directly proportional to the hydrogen pressure.

Mechanisms leading to process improvements in lignite liquefaction using CO and H2S

TL;DR: In this paper, a review of the role of carbon dioxide and hydrogen sulphide in lignite liquefaction is presented, with a focus on the importance of catalytic amounts of H 2 S as a homogeneous catalyst.

Coal liquefaction with synthesis gas

TL;DR: In this article, a variety of coals were converted in batch autoclaves to a low-sulfur fuel oil at temperature of 425 to 450/sup 0/C and pressures of 2200 to 2400 psig, using 1:1 (H/sub 2/:CO) synthesis gas at reaction times of 30 to 60 minutes at temperature.

Statistical study on the batch conversion of estevan lignite into oils using carbon monoxide and hydrogen mixtures

TL;DR: In this paper, a batch autoclave hydrogenolysis of a Saskatchewan lignite has been conducted with CO and H2 mixtures, and the experimental results were obtained following an unreplicated 24 factorial design.
