Critical evaluation of solvent deashing of coal liquids. Volume I. C. E. Lummus Antisolvent Deashing Process. [Lummus antisolvent vs Kerr McGee critical solvent]

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:5722167
This volume is the first part of a two-volume report which is intended to provide a comparative evaluation of two solvent deashing processes for coal liquid extracts. These processes are the Lummus Antisolvent Deashing (ASDA) and the Kerr McGee Critical Solvent Deashing (CSD). Technical and economic assessments of both processes were conducted based on published data, test runs, and confidential reports provided by the process developers. Technical status, relative deashing efficiency, and comparative economics of both processes were thus evaluated. Areas of unresolved technical problems were identified for each process and the research needs in each case were defined.
