High temperature supercritical solvents like ammonia and butane show significant potential for coal processing applications. Experiments with a variety of solutes, including dodecahydrotriphenylene, triphenylene, and anthracene, will aid in the development of a better understanding of supercritical phase behavior. New efforts with supercritical ethanol could prove even more advantageous for extraction processes. A new solubility apparatus under construction has been equipped with the capability of on-line analysis of both inlet SC mixture composition and effluent composition. The existing rigs have also been equipped with the capability of analyzing solvent mixtures with entrainers.
