Patent
·
OSTI ID:6005764
A process is described for the liquefaction of carbonaceous materials to produce predominantly liquid hydrocarbons comprising heating the materials in a liquefaction reactor to a temperature in the range of 250/sup 0/C to 750/sup 0/C, under pressure up to 6000 psi of a gas containing methane in the initial gas feed at 50-100% by volume for a residence time in the liquefaction reactor of about 20-120 minutes.
