Liquefaction of bituminous coals using disposable ore catalysts and hydrogen. Quarterly progress report, November 8, 1981-February 7, 1982
The effect of iron, pyrite, and coal mineral matter has been the subject matter of investigation for quite some time. Our studies have shown further that liquefaction can be effected by a variety of other mineral ores when used individually or in admixture with one another. We have also found that catalytic activity of iron pyrites can be enhanced by the addition of other ores such as limonite, cobalt, and nickel. This considerably increases the possibility of finding a mixture of ores which could be used as a disposable catalyst on a commercial scale. At this time it is very important to get an insight as to how these mineral ores work in coal liquefaction to make effective catalyst mixtures rather than rely entirely on trial and error procedure. Consequently, we have spent some time in reviewing the literature on the catalytic effect of iron, pyrite, and coal mineral matter. A list of literature reviewed is attached.
