This report presents work performed to further the understanding of Solvent Refined Coal Process chemistry and to further process improvements. Several differences in the liquefaction behavior of Kentucky and Wyodak coals have been noted. Coal conversion and hydrodesulfurization kinetics data have been obtained and models constructed. A theoretical model for the continuous SRC process reactor has been initiated. Liquid and gas chromatography procedures have been further refined and utilized to examine steady state SRC recycle solvents.
