Title: Use of ultrasound for enhanced direct coal liquefaction: Quarterly report, January 1989--March 1989

Abstract

The objective of this project is to investigate whether high-intensity ultrasound is capable of inducing coal liquefaction under mild conditions of temperature and pressure in the presence of a solvent and in the presence or absence of a liquefaction catalyst. The role of high-intensity ultrasound in effective dispersion of solids and/or activation of catalysts will also be investigated using an appropriate liquefaction catalyst. During this quarter, work was directed towards setting up the experimental apparatus. 3 refs., 2 figs., 2 tabs.
