Environmental, health, and safety assessments for direct coal liquefaction. Volume 1. Program overview
A summary of an Oak Ridge National Laboratory program to develop multidisciplinary assessments of environmental, health and safety (EH and S) issues drawn from the publicly available Research Development and Demonstration (RD and D) Data Base on direct liquefaction with an emphasis on the Ft. Lewis experience is presented in a 12-volume series. A subsequent assessment addressing the EDS and H-Coal experiences in detail is planned. The assessments focus on ''lessons learned'' and ''remaining needs'' for EH and S issues relevant to the development and replication of direct liquefaction technology. A prototype computer-based information system developed to preserve and manage material accumulated or generated during these assessments is briefly described. The information system was based on generic EH and S concepts and is expected to evolve to encompass EH and S information from synfuels technologies in general. 11 refs., 6 tabs.
