Coal liquids from the COED, H-coal, SRC II, and Synthoil processes were evaluated for their suitability as petrochemical feedstocks. The coal liquids were distilled into straight-run naphtha, mid-distillate, and gas oil (where practicable). The mid-distillate and gas oil were hydrocracked to produce naphtha and LPG. Straignt-run and hydrocracked naphthas were hydrotreated to remove heteroatoms. The hydrotreated naphthas were reformed to maximize aromatics. The hydroprocessing data for the COED coal-derived syncrude was reduced to the point where the chemicals available from the distillate fractions could be determined. (JSR)
