The purpose of this document is to provide background material for participants in the Interagency Workshop on the Health and Environmental Effects of Coal Gasification and Liquefaction technologies. The workshop is jointly sponsored by the Department of Energy, the Department of Health, Education and Welfare and the Environmental Protection Agency. The document is an edited compilation of information designed to provide a broad view of three major coal conversion technologies: coal liquefaction, coal gasification, and in situ gasification. The document is organized to provide several different cuts of information, depending upon the needs of individual users. It consists of five major sections and four Appendices containing supporting material.
