In order to convert solvent refined coal, SRC-II, into a feedstock acceptable to a conventional petroleum refinery, the nitrogen content must be reduced to less than 0.3%. The development of a catalytic hydrocracking - hydrotreating process was continued. Catalysts fabricated by MS and NALCO Company were found to be suitable. Regeneration of the MSU catalyst via burn-off with oxygen-nitrogen mixtures were carried out. Nitrogen removed from the SRC-II was found in the off-gases, in the aqueous products and in the carbon laid down on both the catalyst and the inert catalyst supports.
