Initial work on deashing of the SRC-I filter feed has yielded deashed oil recoveries of 73.2 to 75.5 wt % with an ash content of < 0.001 wt %. The reject bottoms yield ran from 24.5 to 26.8 wt %. The first of three deashed oils derived from UOP coal liquefaction has been catalytically cracked. Conversions of 49 and 56 vol % were obtained. Some of these refined oils have been fractionated and examined by high resolution mass spectroscopy. Numerous aromatic compound classes were identified and are listed in the report.
