This is the third quarterly technical report for a project designed to extend our understanding of coprocessing reactions. More specifically, this research is concerned with development of chemical analytical procedures needed to distinguish between materials and compound classes in the coprocessing products which are derived from the petroleum resid, the coal, or both. Carbon isotope ratios have been used to determine the relative contributions of coal and resid to various coprocessing fractions where the fractions were produced by distillation or solubility fractionation. In the current project, the carbon isotope technique will be utilized with chemical compound type fractionations which have been developed at NIPER. These separation techniques will be used initially with coprocessing samples produced in-house with a 2-liter batch autoclave. Materials selected for initial study were Maya >1000{degree} F resid and Illinois No. 6 coal. Catalyst was introduced by aqueous impregnation of the coal with ammonium tetrathiomolybdate solution. Conditions for satisfactory conversion have been established and workup procedures have been developed. All runs at the selected loadings were completed this quarter. 3 refs., 6 figs., 8 tabs.
