The results obtained in reforming the coal and petroleum naptha cuts in a laboratory single-pass flow unit are presented. The tests were performed with commercial KR-108 polymetallic catalyst, catalyst charge 4 cm/sup 3/, pressure 1 MPa, feedstock space velocity 4 h/sup -1/, and hydrogen feed 1000 liters/liter of feed. The higher yield of reformate with the hydrotreated feed from coal liquefaction is explained by the higher contents of aromatic and naphthenic hydrocarbons in this naphtha. In reforming petroleum and coal naphtha cuts with identical distillation curves, this difference would be more pronounced. The wide-cut distillate was hydrotreated on commercial alumina-cobalt-molybdenum catalyst in a two-section reactor.
