Recycle-slurry-oil characterization. Quarterly report, October 1, 1981-December 31, 1981

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:6688112
This is the report for the fifth quarter under the subject contract reporting the results of analyses of process and product oils in direct liquefaction processing. This work is similar in scope and intent to that completed under Contract DE-AC05-79ET14503, Development of the Correlation Between Slurry Oil Composition and Process Performance. That contract was devoted to the analyses of slurry recycle oils from the H-Coal process development unit operated by HRI at Trenton, New Jersey. In the current contract the majority of samples have come from the two-stage liquefaction bench scale unit operated by Lummus at New Brunswick, New Jersey. The Lummus unit consists of a short contact time coal liquefaction, followed by Lummus antisolvent deashing of the short residence time product. The deashed coal liquids are then upgraded in a Lummus-Cities Service LC-Fining unit. The Lummus work is being conducted under DOE contract DE-AC02-79ET14804. DOE will also provide samples from other sources for analysis under this contract notably the H-Coal PDU, and the H-Coal pilot plant in Catlettsburg, Kentucky. Accomplishments for this quarter are presented for the following three tasks: (1) analytical evaluation; (2) analytical characterization; (3) data interpretation and reporting. 5 figures, 21 tables.
