The progress of the Solvent Refined Coal (SRC) project by The Pittsburg and Midway Coal Mining Co., at the SRC Pilot Plant at Fort Lewis, Washington, and the P and M Laboratory in Merriam, Kansas for the Energy Research and Development Administration during the month of June 1977 is reported. The Fort Lewis Pilot Plant processed a blend of Kentucky 9 and 14 coal during 25 days of operation in June. Two SRC II material balance runs were completed during this period. Four SRC II runs were completed at the Merriam Laboratory, three exploring the effect of hydrogen circulation rate at lower rates than previously employed in SRC II, and the other an additional attempt to reach a fully lined out slurry-only recycle run with the Loveridge Mine Pittsburgh Seam Coal.
