[Research guidance studies]. Quarterly progress report, October 1--December 31, 1997
The overall objectives of this contract are to: (1) evaluate the technical and economic merits of current direct and indirect coal liquefaction technologies and other similar emerging technologies such as coal-waste coprocessing, natural gas conversion, and biomass conversion technologies, (2) monitor progress in these technologies, (3) conduct specific and generic project economic and technical feasibility studies based on these technologies, (4) identify long-range R and D areas that have the greatest potential for process improvements, and (5) preliminarily investigate best configurations and associated costs for refining coal-derived and other non-conventional liquids in existing petroleum refineries. During this quarter, work was continued in the area of coal/oil coprocessing with existing petroleum refineries.
